Re: [R] Newbie
I'm a bit new to the world of R so forgive my ignorance. That has nothing to do with the knowledge of R but with the model.

Using your example Synaptic reports the following error when I try to update the repositories: http://www.stats.bris.ac.uk/R/bin/linux/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found This is understandable since that location doesn't exist, but it makes me think that the directory structure of the R mirrors is not compatible with Ubuntu and Synaptic, since it automatically seeks /dists/feisty/ rather than just /feisty/ as it is on the CRAN mirrors.

Linux or Apple (the powermac) might be better bets if you're wanting to work with programs that use a lot of RAM. BTW, Intel does make 64 bit chips now. They use them in macs. The Core 2 Duo has 64bit processing and is not only used in Macs... The thing with the 64bit Vista is that there is much less software driver support at the moment. So if you will not use more than 4GB and want to use it for other purposes than you might prefer the 32bit Vista... My personal subjective feeling is that Vista is slower then XP. So I would say thats not the only reason to go for Linux.

Re: [R] JGR, Java and Kubuntu 7.04 ...
You could download the latest R (2.5.0) directly from CRAN, this just as
a side remark, You find instructions here:
http://cran.au.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/README
With java you should make sure that you have the Java 5 JDK installed.
I dont know how it is with Ubuntu but on fedora I have to set the java
alternative (sun java installation does not change the default java
there). Which java is installed you can check with java -version there
you see it it is properly installed and a R CMD javareconf also
indicates if your java is configured correctly. Additionally on Fedora I
had to set JAVA_HOME to the JDK directory manually.

From: John Logsdon [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch

R-ists
Yet again Java rears its ugly head.
I have Kubuntu 7.04 running the Kubuntu-repository version of R 2.4.1-1.
Yes it isn't the very latest version but this is not the issue here.
I want a Windows-like environment and everyone is talking about JGR.
I downloaded it and installed it along with rJava. Both compile and install
satisfactorily.
But when I come to run it:
library('JGR')
Loading required package: rJava
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
unable to load shared library
'/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/rJava/libs/rJava.so':
/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/rJava/libs/rJava.so: undefined symbol:
JNI_GetCreatedJavaVMs Error: .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'rJava'
Error: package 'rJava' could not be loaded
When I first tried to run it without Java being installed, I got a message
saying that JDK wasn't installed but mentioned 1.4.2. The version of Java
actually installed as the latest from the Ubuntu repository is Sun 1.5.0.11.
I don't see the point in installing old versions of Java just for one
application because the language, or at least the writing, should be
backwards compatible.
In all aspects I have seen Kubuntu is a very impressive in checking
compatibility. Unfortunately this is frequently not the case with Java. I
steer clear of Java as much as possible.
Can anyone suggest what I should do? Use Windows perhaps? Run Windows in a
kvm virtual machine just to run R? Put my head in a bucket of cold water?
Is there an alternative IDE? Is there a later JGR somewhere that is not yet
on CRAN?
TIA

Re: [R] Panel data
Panel data is that you have e.g. several subjects (=individuals,firms,households) being tracked over a certain time (meaning there are repeated observations). One could roughly say that it is a collection of (quite similiar) time series. This makes the analysis better than pooling the whole set but it needs certain econometric tools. An example would be estimating wage elasticities. Time series analysis usually just involves one subject (interest rates, share prices etc.) over some time. Standard books on panel data analysis are also Baltagi: econometric analysis of panel data and Wooldridge: econometric analysis of cross sectional and panel data. Both are not introductionary texts since you do not know the difference between time series and panel data maybe you should start with an introductionary econometrics book like Wooldridge introductory econometrics or Verbeek: modern econometrics.

Actually the packages R wants to update are: VR, cluster, lattice, mgcv, nlme and rcompgen. I did how described in the R-Win-FAQ create a .Renviron File containing the path to the win-library that R already created (R_LIBS=C: ... ). I also tried to add R_LIBS= as Rgui parameter from within Tinn-R. Additionally I tried to leave a file named Renviron.site in the etc library. Nothing worked thus far. Interestingly installing packages does work fine even without specifying the R_LIBS path manually with any of the above mentioned methods. Even more puzzling is that even when I install eg. nlme manually via install.packages(nlme) it works but R still wants to update it. Even though e.g. library(nlme), ?nlme shows that the latest version is installed. I would guess there is some problem with the library path variable in the update program...

I use JGR when I am on Fedora. This is a good java gui which is similiar
(and better) compared to the R windows gui . You can install it via
install.packages(JGR,dep=T) and start with library(JGR). Sometimes
Java is not configured correctly so you might end up with an error. In

Re: [R] CPU or memory
64bit does not make anything faster. It is only of use if you want to use more then 4 GB of RAM of if you need a higher precision of your variables The dual core question: dual core is faster if programs are able to use that. What is sure that R cannot make (until now) use of the two cores if you are stuck on Windows. It works excellent if you use Linux. So if you want dual core you should work with linux (and then its faster of course). The Core 2 duo is the fastest processor at the moment however. (the E6600 has a good price/performance ration) What I already told Taka is that it is probably always a good idea to improve your code for which purpose you could ask in this mailing list...

[R] qplot of ggplot package how to plot different size according to the values and not to the weights?
I have the following Data structure $ step45 : Factor w/ 2 levels $ obserror : num 6.2 6.2 5.6 6.6 6.6 ... $ Mon: num 2.2 2.0 1.0 3.2 2.0 ... $ inc.comp : num 4 5 2 5 5 5 5 5 4 4 ... all I wanted to do is plotting Mon against obserror, the colors should be by step45 and the size of the symbol should be according to inc.comp so I did this: qplot(obserror,Mon,data=obscomp,col=inc.comp,col=step45) unfortunately the size of the is something I do not want it to be, the legend for inc.comp says: 4, 2.25, 1 ,0.25 , 0 I suppose this are weights? I got closer to what I want specify a different symbol instead of a different size: qplot(obserror,Mon,data=obscomp,shape=as.factor(inc.comp),col=step45) I needed the as.factor otherwise the plot is again different. But that did not work with size. OK I thought this is a second best solution but unfortunately the symbols are to small. But setting a size = 3 which I thout adds a constant size everywhere (somehow expectedly) did add a third legend 3 with 3.61, 3.42, ... (The color worked fine) Unfortunately the documentation of qplot is rather short (FIXME)... So is there a kind of option to use for the size just the values and not the weights? Or a possibility to switch of 3 for legend plotting?

I think there are two things here that are confusing you (both my fault) * the size aesthetic actually modifies the area (ie. sqrt(size)) of the points, because that is better perceptually * the legend isn't very good But it is mapping the inc.comp to the size of the variable. OK So I was confused by the legend values. qplot currently doesn't have any way to set an aesthetic to a fixed value (it can't tell that you're specifying an aesthetic value not a data value). You can do this in two steps though p - qplot(wt, mpg, data=mtcars, type=NULL, shape=cyl) ggpoint(p, size=3) Thanks that looks better. And when I do the as.factor I have the different values (and as.factor in the legend but that does not matter).

Re: [R] Latex editor recommendations
For LaTeX I use the winedt editor: http://www.winedt.com which is extremely powerful and there exists an add-on for the use with R (but I prefer using Tinn-R for R). Winedt is shareware, you have a trial period of 30 days. It has an affordable price and discount for academics if I remember correctly. A very good freeware is TeXnicCenter: http://www.texniccenter.org/ There are many other editors being capable of LaTeX editing like Jedit (which has a LaTeX plugin), xemacs plus auctex and so on but the two mentioned are the LaTeX specialists and in my opinion easier to use.

Re: [R] regarding bootstrapping
Although it does not directly answer your question you might be
interested in:
Michalis Ioannides, A comparison of yield curve estimation techniques using UK
data, Journal of Banking Finance, Volume 27, Issue 1, , January 2003, Pages
1-26.
Abstract: I compare different methods of estimating the term structure of
interest rates on a daily UK treasury bill and gilt data that spans the period
from January 1995 to January 1999. In-sample and out-of-sample statistics
reveal the superior pricing ability of certain methods characterised by an
exponential functional form. In addition to these standard goodness of fit
statistics, model performance is judged in terms of two trading strategies
based on model residuals. Both strategies reveal that parsimonious
representations of the term structure perform better than their spline
counterparts characterised by a linear functional form. This is valid even when
abnormal returns are adjusted for market movements. Linear splines overfit the
data and are likely to give misleading results.

Re: [R] R Graphics: Saving PDF and other formats from Windows Graphic Device for LaTeX

Reducing point-size below 6 does not seem to make any difference to
the size of text and symbols. Any suggestions to get smaller font sizes?
I have never used the pointsize option. Increasing the height and the
width decreases the relative size of the font so if you scale down the
figure in LaTeX you would get smaller fonts.
I am using WinEdt with MikTeX set-up.
as well do I ...
Latex complains about the [scale...] part for any scale in
\includegraphics[scale=1]{}
A scale of one does not make any sense since it is 100% or with other
words you could leave that out.
If you want to scale the figure to the text width you could write
\begin{figure}
\includegraphic[width=\textwidth]{sgr6100.pdf }
\end{figure}
btw. I use the postscript device to produce an eps file and dvipdfm to
convert the dvi to pdf
postscript(sgr6100.eps, width = 6, height = 6, horizontal = FALSE,
onefile =T, paper=special)
and then in LaTeX:
\begin{figure}

and pauses. Suggestions will be appreciated about what is the best way to

Re: [R] Authoring a book
//people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/lshort/lshort.pdf It really was a not too short intro. I'll have a look at it. Yes definitly not too short. But it states in LaTeX in 133 min ... Seems to be for Linux only. My server is Windows, even if I have the rest of the components. Hm at the projects' homepage its stated that it is OS independent: http://sourceforge.net/projects/uniwakka/ I also dont see a hint that it is Linux dependent in the installation notes. Maybe you think its Linux stuff because of the *.tar.gz ending? You can unzip those files also on Windows, its just a packing file format. For unpacking on a windows machine use either 7zip: http://www.7-zip.org/ or the total commander: http://www.ghisler.com . The first is a free packing program and the second is the best ever windows file manager (if you want to open it there just double click at the archive). Stefan Grosse The unpacked instl. notes: Wakka Installation Not much to it (as long as it works, ahem). Unpack/upload the distribution files into a directory that can be accessed via the web. Then go to the corresponding URL. A web-based installer will walk you through the rest. Example: If your website, say, http://www.mysite.com, is mapped to the directory /home/jdoe/www/, and you place the Wakka distribution files into /home/jdoe/www/wakka/, you should go to http://www.mysite.com/wakka/. Note that Wakka distributions normally unpack into directories that include the version in their name; you'll probably want to rename those to just wakka -- or, if you're on a unixoid system, set up a symbolic link. During first installs, the installer will try to create a file called wakka.config.php in your Wakka directory. In order to do this, you will need to either make the Wakka directory writable by the web server, or create a new (empty) file called wakka.config.php which is writable by the web server. If the installer still fails to create the file, it will dump the file's contents which you can then upload manually. IMPORTANT: for installing or upgrading Wakka, do NOT access any of the files contained in the setup/ subdirectory. They're used by the web-based installer/updater, but you should really just access the Wakka directory itself, and it will (or at least should) work perfectly.

[R] exact Wilcoxon signed rank test with ties and the no longer under development exactRanksumTests package
Dear List, after updating the exactRanksumTests package I receive a warning that the package is not developed any further and that one should consider the coin package. I don't find the signed rank test in the coin package, only the Wilcoxon Mann Whitney U-Test. I only found a signed rank test in the stats package (wilcox.test) which is able to calculate the exact pvalues but unfortunately the procedure cannot calculate the exact values with ties. Is there any other package that is providing a similiar test? Or is there an easy work out how to take the ties into account? (Or a chance that the correction is taken into account for the stats package?) Stefan Grosse Take the following example from Bortz/Lienert/Boehnke: x1-c(9,14,8,11,14,10,8,14,12,14,13,9,15,12,9) x2-c(13,15,9,12,16,10,8,13,12,16,9,10,16,12,9) # exactRankTests package: wilcox.exact(x1,x2,paired=TRUE) Exact Wilcoxon signed rank test data: x1 and x2 V = 13, p-value = 0.1367 alternative hypothesis: true mu is not equal to 0 # wilcox.test by stats package: wilcox.test(x1,x2,paired=TRUE,exact=TRUE) Wilcoxon signed rank test with continuity correction data: x1 and x2 V = 13, p-value = 0.1436 alternative hypothesis: true mu is not equal to 0 Warning messages: 1: cannot compute exact p-value with ties in: wilcox.test.default(x1, x2, paired = TRUE, exact = TRUE) 2: cannot compute exact p-value with zeroes in: wilcox.test.default(x1, x2, paired = TRUE, exact = TRUE) __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

Re: [R] Authoring a book
I think Peter Dalgaard is right. Since you are able to use R I believe you will be very fast in learning LaTeX. I think it needs less then a week to learn the most common LaTeX commands. And setting up a wiki and trying then to convert this into a printable document format plus learning the wiki syntax is probably more time consuming. Beside this R is able to work perfectly together with LaTeX, it creates LaTeX output and is doing excellent graphics in the EPS/PS format. The best introduction for LaTeX is the not so short introduction: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/lshort/lshort.pdf If you still are not convinced have a look at UniWakkaWiki: http://uniwakka.sourceforge.net/HomePage It is a Wiki for Science and University purposes and claims to be able to export to Openoffice as well as to LaTeX. Stefan Grosse I have my own server, Windows, based on Apache, PhP, and MySQL. SVN and LaTeX would be my tools of choice. A very different approach. SVN is not something I am aquainted with, but should be worth looking into. As to LaTex, the closest I have worked with is Lyx. The problem is, there are two other authors I have to persuade to learn new tools. So, it might be too complex.

Re: [R] installing the x86_64 R Binary on Fedora Core 5
Hi Roger, I dunno what exactly might be the source of that mistake but I would strongly recommend to install R while you are online. Often other packages must be installed for dependencies. (And then I recommend using the smart package manager ( http://labix.org/smart ) which is a great tool and handling dependencies better.) You could use rpm at the command line level. open a shell, type su and give your password, change to the folder where the rpm is downloaded to, type rpm -ivh R-2.3.1-1.fc5.x86_64.rpm will try to install and give you information on whats missing... Stefan Grosse roger bos schrieb: I am looking for help install the x86_64 R Binary onto my FC5 machine. At the risk of subjecting myself to tons of criticism, I must confess that I don't know anything about Linux and I have never compiled R from source. Therefore, I choose FC5 because I see that a 64-bit binary is already available. Here is what I tried: I installed FC5 with all options (productivity, software development, and web server). FC5 boots up fine. I downloaded all the R binary files in that FC5 directory to my USB drive and copied them onto my linux machine (where I don't yet have internet access). I created a folder in my rbos's Home directory and copied the files there. I clicked on the R-2.3.1-1.fc5.x86_64.rpm and right-clicked to choose 'open with install software' It asked me for my root password. I put in the same root password I choose when I installed FC5. I get a installing packages screen that shows the R filename and I click Apply. It then give me an Error: Unable to retrieve software information. Can anyone tell me what steps I am missing? The R install guide states that binary installs are platform specific so it only considers building from the sources.
