[R] simulation of levene's test

2012-05-28 Thread dila
hello,
I try to run simulation of levene's test to find the p-value but the error
of replacement has length zero occur, could anyone help me to fix this
problem?

asim - 1000
pv-rep(NA,asim)
for(i in 1:asim)
{print(i)
set.seed(i)
g1 - rnorm(20,0,2)
g2 - rnorm(20,0,2)
g3 - rnorm(20,0,2) 
x - c(g1,g2,g3)
group-as.factor(c(rep(1,20),rep(2,20),rep(3,20)))
library(Rcmdr)
pv[i]-leveneTest(x,group)$p.value
}

Dear Dila,

Try the following:

library(Rcmdr)
asim - 1000
pv-NULL
for(i in 1:asim)
{
print(i)
set.seed(i)
g1 - rnorm(20,0,2)
g2 - rnorm(20,0,2)
g3 - rnorm(20,0,2)
x - c(g1,g2,g3)
group-as.factor(c(rep(1,20),rep(2,20),rep(3,20)))
pv-c(pv,leveneTest(x,group)$Pr(F)[1])
}

Or avoid the unncessary overhead of Rcmdr and use

library(car)

to provide levenTest instead.


 asim - 1000
 pv-NULL

It's also many orders of magnitude more efficient to preallocate pv
and then simply put things into it.

pv - vector(real, 1000)

 for(i in 1:asim)
 {
 print(i)
 set.seed(i)

Setting the seed each loop seems excessive but I suppose it's a matter
of taste.

 g1 - rnorm(20,0,2)
 g2 - rnorm(20,0,2)
 g3 - rnorm(20,0,2)
 x - c(g1,g2,g3)

Is there any reason not to do this as x - rnorm(60, 0, 2)

 group-as.factor(c(rep(1,20),rep(2,20),rep(3,20)))

and this as as.factor(rep(1:3, each = 20))


 pv-c(pv,leveneTest(x,group)$Pr(F)[1])

Once you preallocate pv change this to

pv[i] - leveneTest(x, group)$Pr(F)[1]

But it's even better not to use the dollar sign shortcut here
(defensive programming and all that -- particularly with nonstandard
names which I'm pretty sure won't give a big error here but will
elsewhere)

pv[i] - leveneTest(x, group)[[Pr(F)]][1]


And even better would be to do this all using the replicate
function, but I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader.

Michael
