Well, 4Gb is the maximum addressable with 32bit pointers and you would
need to fit the operating system and the R program in there as well as the
R heap.

This means that it tried to allocate 109035k on top of what was already
allocated, and couldn't.

You probably can't fit this model in the memory.  Fortunately you probably
don't want to.

You can almost certainly either aggregate to a smaller number of
observations or analyse subgroups of the data and get a more useful result
as well as one that R can compute.

Via PNG, probably, although bitmap() will automate going via postscript.
Note that TIFF is a multitude of formats, and not all tools accept all the 
sub-formats, in particular compression schemes, so I would use 
uncompressed TIFF.

[R] The best way to end up with TIFF {Was: end up with WMF)

2003-03-20 Thread Peter Dunn
Hi all

I posted a couple of days ago about how to end up with wmf files
eventually in R for linux.

The short answer was:  you (probably) can't...and don't!

The journal in question also accepts TIFF files, I am told (it's
a physiology journal).

So I adjust my question:  What is the best way to get TIFF files
out of R?  It can't create them directly as far as I can tell.
ImageMagick's convert can create TIFF; what is the best way to
get there from R?  Thru postscript first?

[R] RH 8.0, Mozilla and help.start() - Deja Vu All Over Again....

2003-03-20 Thread Marc Schwartz
Hi all,

In the continuing process of dealing with the upgrades to Mozilla under 
RH 8.0 Linux (present stable release is 1.3) and as a result, the 
"breakage" of R's help.start() function, which is a java applet based 
search engine, I wanted to point out to folks some key points of 
information.

If you are upgrading to Mozilla version 1.3 under RH 8.0 from an older 
version, even one of the devel versions such as 1.3a or 1.3b, you need 
to carefully read the Installation Notes at:

http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.3/

Most significantly in this case, is that the RPMS for RH 8.0 of this 
version of Mozilla are compiled with gcc version 3.2.

The present official release of Java from Sun is not and therefore the 
Sun Java plugins for Mozilla will not work with 1.3, breaking 
help.start(). As of this writing Sun does not have a gcc 3.2 compiled 
Java download available, though is expected to in the near future.

In order to get help.start() working in this scenario, you need to 
download the gcc 3.2 compiled versions of Java from one of the 
Blackdown.org mirrors at:

http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html

Once at the mirror of your choice, go into the JDK-1.4.1/i386/01 folder.

Download:

j2re-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin
INSTALL-j2re
README
Be sure to read the README and INSTALL-j2re files carefully and fully.

The .bin file is the install executable and you of course, need to 
change the file attributes to make it executable after download. Note 
that by default this file will extract and install in its download 
directory and it does not prompt you for a target. Again, read the 
installation instructions carefully.

The key will be to remove the existing Java shortcut in your Mozilla 
plugins folder, which for me using Moz 1.3 is:

/usr/lib/mozilla-1.3/plugins

Depending upon what version of Java you presently have installed, the 
existing shortcut may be to .../javaplugin_oji.so or to 
.../libjavaplugin_oji.so.

Once you have installed the Blackdown.org version of Java as per the 
installation instructions, you will need to recreate the shortcut to the 
new Java plugin, which for me is:

/usr/java/j2re1.4.1/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so

Hence, in the /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3/plugins folder using a terminal as 
root, enter:

ln -s /usr/java/j2re1.4.1/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so

Of course, in each case, replace my path(s) with yours, if different.

Finally, be sure that in the Mozilla Preferences settings, you have BOTH 
Java and JavaScript enabled on the Advanced and Advanced/Scripts&Plugins 
tabs respectively.

Basically, once you have completed these steps, help.start() should work 
with Moz 1.3. If it is working properly, you should see a Mozilla status 
line message indicating that the Java applet has started ("Applet 
SearchEngine Started") when you go to the Search Engine & Keywords 
search page (not the initial page).

I hope that this information helps folks. This seems to be an ongoing 
(but hopefully not never ending) saga.

Best regards,

Marc Schwartz

Re: [R] ANOVA: F value >1 or < 1

2003-03-20 Thread Spencer Graves
	  The F ratio compares the variability between groups to a supposedly 
independent estimate of what that variability would be if there were no 
group effect.

	  If F is large (much greater than 1), it suggests that there probably 
is a group effect.

	  If F is small (quite close to 0), it suggests some other violation of 
assumptions.  This can occur in a balanced 2-way layout where factor A 
is unimportant while B is large but excluded from the model.

tst.df2 <- data.frame(A=rep(letters[1:2], each=2), B=rep(letters[1:2],

[R] Question about Error due to memory allocation issue

2003-03-20 Thread Jeannette Wicks-Lim
Hi, 

I'm new to using R and I'm having problems in trying to do some quantile 
regressions with the package quantreg. When I try to use rq [specifically, I 
type in: rq(lnwagehr~lnmin1 +  lncpi +  ue03 + ue35 + ue57 + ue79, tau=.05, 
data=mydata, weights=pworwgt, method="fn", na.omit) ] , the computer churns for 
about 15 minutes and then spits out the following error message:

Error: cannot allocate vector of size 109035 Kb

I'm not sure what it going on but here is some (possibly) relevant info:

-My computer has 512Mb of memory
-My data set was originally in Stata and I read it into R using the package 
foreign
-My data set is VERY LARGE: about 1.4 million obs. The data set was 90Mb in 
Stata. The model I've tried to evaluate only has 5 variables, but I'd like to 
expand this to about 43 (I have lots of state and year dummies). 

I have tried using the command: memory.size(max=TRUE):
> memory.size(max=TRUE)
[1] 2076487680

but I then get (after submitting another rq command):

Error: cannot allocate vector of size 76324 Kb

Thanks very much for any help you can provide!

Re: [R] Measure of Redundancy In Variables

2003-03-20 Thread Spencer Graves
Have you considered "factanal" in library "mva"?  How do the 
"uniquenesses" in the "factanal" object relate to what you want?  From 
what I read of your question, it sounds like they estimate exactly what 
you want.

Hope this helps.

That is unfortunate. Is there any work-around? I tried to set 
environment variable cpp as /usr/site/gcc-2.95.3/bin/gcc or gcc-3.0.4 
but ./configure says

...

See `config.log' for more details.

Hi

I want to combine 2 dataframes (t1 and t2) in order to get a third one

In SQL I would do something like:

WHERE t1.f1=t2.f1 AND t1.f2=t2.f2

How can I do it with R ?

RE: [R] Matrix problems

2003-03-20 Thread Adaikalavan Ramasamy
  It 'unwraps' the 200,000 x 2 matrix into a vector with 400,000
elements and giving you the location/subscripts of this vector that
matches the criterion. Instead you should use  

apply(mat1, 2, function(y) which( y == 2 ))  

  which gives you the rows in each column that corresponds to 185.

Try length(mat1) and dim(mat1) and you will see that for length(), it
coerces the object into a vector first.

and

RE: [R] The best way to end up with WMF files

If I understand your questions correctly, one other potential option comes
from the libEMF ( http://libemf.sourceforge.net/ and
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libemf ) library and a tool called pstoedit
( http://www.pstoedit.net/pstoedit/ ). With these I have had some success
converting PostScript formatted (single) data graphs into Enhanced Windows
Metafile format (EMF) under Linux. My tests have not been extensive,
however, just some simple scatterplots with lowess curves and a couple of
the lattice/grid examples.  The quality of the graphs was acceptable to me
in these simple tests, and the desirable resolution characteristics of
vector-based graphs remained.  

Some fiddling was needed to get pstoedit to recognize libEMF at build time -
I use Mandrake 9.0.  The libEMF library in particular required some patches
to handle gcc 3.x. These patches have been submitted but the libEMF author
has not updated the original tarball yet.  The patches were fairly simple to
apply, although I did not document my path in doing so.  

Also, pstoedit runs under Windows, and the conversion to WMF/EMF is implicit
in its already built installer, so perhaps the biologists would not object
to doing the conversion from PostScript -> WMF directly on their machines?
(No GUI, of course, and ghostscript installation may be required if I
remember correctly, so I understand this may not be feasible for your target
audience. I also recall that the a flag to rotate the graphs was needed.)

Hope that helps,
Bill
