This is to submit a commented example function for use in the data argument to the bigglm(biglm) function, when you want to read the data from a file (instead of a URL), or rescale or modify the data before fitting the model. In the hope that this may be of help to someone out there. make.data

Dear Prof. Ripley, Many thanks for your reply, especially during the holiday season! From: Prof Brian Ripley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You seem to believe a multinomial logistic regression is a GLM: it is not. With one line, you've struck the heart of one of my problems. As a follow-up

2006-12-21 Thread Yeh, Richard C
I would like to perform a multinomial logistic regression on a large data set, but do not know how. I've only thought of a few possibilities and write to seek advice and guidance on them or deepening or expanding my search. On smaller data sets, I have successfully loaded the data and issued

[R] How to retrieve results of most recent command?

2006-09-22 Thread Yeh, Richard C
In R, is there an automatic variable that stores the results of the most recent command or commands? (I am thinking of a behavior like Mathematica's % result-history substitution syntax.) (I am using R 2.3.1 on Linux and R 2.3.1 on Windows XP.) This is a pretty basic question, so I tried to
