Re: [R] R help

[Jeff Newmiller]

I am assuming that you are referring to your emails from last October and last 
month regarding nlme.

A) Read the Posting Guide, which mentions things like the fact that you should 
set your email program to send plain text when posting on this mailing list , 
and that there is a dedicated R-sig-mixed-models mailing list where questions 
about nlme would be more on topic. (The plain text thing is important to avoid 
us receiving a corrupted version of what you sent, so it is important if we are 
to understand you.)

B) Don't reply to an existing message on the list with a completely different 
question... start a fresh email with an informative subject line and all of the 
replies will show up together in many email programs and in the archives. 
Hijacked email threads tend to get overlooked, which is not in your best 
interest. 

C) Make sure your example is reproducible. See for example [1] or [2] or [3] 
(or all three).

D) A course in linear regression should address when it is reasonable to remove 
terms, but it is beyond the scope of this list to go into that. Removing the 
intercept due to large p-values is hardly ever justified. Mixed models of the 
complexity you are trying to use typically require a lot more data than you 
showed last month to give significant results. You should probably consult with 
a local statistician on your experimental design.

Re: [R] qqplot for binomial distribution

[Ashim Kapoor]

Dear Boris,

Thank you for your reply.

> dput(count1_vector)
c(5, 6, 4, 4, 6, 5, 4, 5, 3, 7, 5, 5, 3, 4, 8, 6, 10, 2, 4, 6,
8, 4, 4, 6, 8, 5, 6, 3, 7, 9, 4, 7, 5, 7, 3, 4, 5, 2, 11, 7,
8, 5, 5, 6, 3, 2, 3, 5, 9, 6, 5, 6, 7, 3, 10, 7, 6, 4, 9, 5,
7, 3, 7, 3, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7, 4, 8, 7, 5, 5, 4,
8, 7, 9, 4, 4, 4, 7, 5, 4, 10, 4, 5, 6, 1, 3, 5, 4, 7, 4, 6)

set.seed(123)
qqplot(count1_vector,rbinom(n=100,size=100,p=.05))
qqline(count1_vector,distribution = function(probs) { qbinom(probs,
size=100, prob=0.05) },
   col = "red",
   lwd = 0.5)

When I do this, the line does not pass through the center of my data.I do
expect count1_vector to be 100 samples of binomial with n=100 and p=.05.

Any comments or suggestions for me ?

Note : I built a 95% Confidence interval for my data and I counted how
often out of 100 times did the data fall outside the CI.This I expect to be
binomial with n=100,p=.05. I repeated this a 100 times and obtained
count1_vector.

Best Regards,
Ashim.

Re: [R] R help

[David L Carlson]

The only recent question that I can see you posted (Mar 22) was tagged onto an 
existing thread so it is possible people assumed you were answering the 
question raised by the original poster.

Do not use html - learn how to send emails as plain text.

If you have a question, start a new thread, do not add it as a reply to an 
existing question.

And the usual, post a reproducible example with data and code. Your last 
question did that. Try posting again, in plain text and creating a new subject 
line. Use dput() to send your data to the list. Just listing it with print can 
leave out important information.

?useOuterStrips gives the following function body:

useOuterStrips(x,
   strip = strip.default,
   strip.left = strip.custom(horizontal = FALSE),
   strip.lines = 1,
   strip.left.lines = strip.lines)

and set strip.lines = 4. Is this what you want?

Re: [R] Strip height in latticeExtra:::useOuterStrips

[Richard M. Heiberger]

You had a typo.

library(latticeExtra)

Try this.  I am solving what I think is a problem related to yours.  I set it up
as a three-way plot instead of pasting two of the measures together.

## install.packages("HH") ## if necessary
library(HH)
tmp <- xyplot(x ~ d | a*b*c, data = df2,
   par.settings = list(layout.heights = list(strip = 2.2)))
useOuterStripsT2L1(tmp)

[R] Strip height in latticeExtra:::useOuterStrips

[Duncan Mackay]

Hi all

I use latticeExtra::useOuterStrips quite a bit.
The problem of strip height using useOuterStrips came up some time ago but
did not have the time then to work something out so made do with the
default layout.heights of strip = 1

Re: [R] Difference between console output of cat and print

[Bert Gunter]

Well,...

cat() is as Jeff describes.

However, print() is a generic function (see ?UseMethod) for which
there are literally hundreds of different methods that may do far
more/different than merely output character strings. For example, the
print method for trellis objects, print.trellis, draws a graph of the
object.

The print method  called for print(10) is the default method, for
which ?print.default should be consulted: it is actually printing a
vector of length 1, and the print method for vectors labels each line
with the index of the first item printed.

Please read An Intro to R or other R tutorial to learn about S3 methods.

Cheers,
Bert

Re: [R] Setting .Rprofile for RStudio on a Windows 7 x64bit

[BR_email]

To _ALL_ who helped me.
In the final analysis, I was doing everything correctly, as per the 
manuals, the links, and the books I bought.
However, in all the material, it never read mention of creating of the 
.Rprofile file
with a programmer/developer text editor, which allows for no extension, 
no R, no txt.


You guys drilled down, and hit solid gold for me,
which lead to my understanding the issue, at least as I see it.

Pure GOLD Medal team work.
Again, I truly thank you.

Re: [R] ssa gapfill of series with large window and sparse gaps with Rssa

[Bert Gunter]

I should probably have added that you should have a look at R's time
series task view:

https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/TimeSeries.html

including anything there on irregular times series (e.g. irts() from
tseries package) and imputation.

Re: [R] ssa gapfill of series with large window and sparse gaps with Rssa

[Bert Gunter]

 ... "and explain the best practice given my missing data situation?"

I cannot speak to your other issues, but the above is definitely off
topic for this list, which is about R programming, not statistical
matters. Missing data are certainly a complex issue: you might try a
statistical list like stats.stackexchange.com for opinions on the
above.

Re: [R] Return value from function with For loop

[William Dunlap via R-help]

A long time ago (before the mid-1990's?) with S or S+
   ff <- function(n){ for(i in 1:n) (i+1)
   op <- ff(3)
would result in 'op' being 4, since a for-loop's value
was the value of the last expression executed in the
body of the loop.  The presence of a 'next' or 'break'
in the loop body would affect the return value.

This made the primitive garbage collection used the time
not work so well and was one reason that for-loops with
lots of iterations ran slowly.  Almost no one used
the return value of a for-loop so, to avoid memory issues,
for was changed to always return NULL.

[R] ssa gapfill of series with large window and sparse gaps with Rssa

[Ateljevich, Eli@DWR]

I have several years of univariate wind speed data to which I would like to 
apply singular spectrum analysis. The data are sampled every 15min and a year 
is a fundamental periodicity, which suggests L=35,040 values.


I would like to fill the gaps. The missing values are scattered at low density 
throughout the series.  I doubt there is a block of even one month that doesn't 
have at least a couple pieces of missing data, but I'd surprised to learn the 
total number are prohibitive.


The filling routines in Rssa like igapfill assume a shaped ssa object, so it 
seems I need to run ssa successfully first before I can fill. When I try this 
with L=35,040 or anything above about 2,000 I get an error message
Nothing to decompose: the given field shape is empty
and warnings like
Some field elements were not covered by shaped window. 42646 elements will be 
ommited.


This is frustrating, because if I manually fill missing data with the series 
mean, which I understand as being the first step of igapfill, the decomposition 
succeeds with L=35040. The operation seems efficient and the spectral 
components look as expected. But since I have manually created a series with no 
missing data,  this doesn't help me with gap filling.


To concoct a shaped ssa object with the original missing pattern, I invoked 
force.decompose=FALSE. At that point I can bring my task to completion, but I 
don't know what I'm doing.  The only examples I see in the docs are not 
explained and are in 2D.


Can someone familiar with this kind of use case explain what the purpose of 
force.decompose and explain the best practice given my missing data situation? 
Are there consequences to my workaround? Thanks.

According to the gospel of St.Henrik, that filename is wrong, and possibly the 
directory too.

So try his suggestions. What is the output (show us!) of

normalizePath("./.Rprofile")
normalizePath("~/.Rprofile")

Assuming that the former is 

"C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile"

you could try renaming the .Rprofile.site file to that. If need be, use 
file.rename, as in

file.rename(from="C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile.site", 
to="C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile")

(and restart, obviously).

[I wouldn't set the seed in a .Rprofile file, nor would I use rm() there, but 
that is a different kettle of fish.]

Re: [R] Setting .Rprofile for RStudio on a Windows 7 x64bit

[Jeff Newmiller]

".Rprofile.site" is not looked for in "C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/". That 
file belongs in the R.home("etc") directory.  I suggest you stay away from the 
system wide configuration and focus on your personal configuration file 
""C:/Users/BruceRatner/Documents/.Rprofile".

I also recommend putting the arguments in the order given in ?source unless you 
name every single argument.

You have a double quote sign ("") preceding C:/.
Make it a single double quote so that you get "C:/"

Re: [R] Simulating survival data with co-variate interactions

[Bert Gunter]

This appears to fall into the realm of statistical questions, which
are mainly off topic for this list, which is about R programming
questions (subsequent posts here *may* be appropriate after you have
resolved the statistical questions). You might try posting on a
statistical list like stats.stackexchange.com.  Note: You will likely
have to provide far greater detail to get helpful replies, though they
may be able to refer you to approriate resources, e.g. texts.

Cheers,
Bert

[R] Difference between console output of cat and print

[Data MagicPro]

Since both *cat * as well as * print * create a character vector for
outputing on the screen. Still both give different results as apparant
below. My query is why so ?


> cat(10)
10
> print(10)
[1] 10

Why is the [1] of index number missing in case of *cat *?

 Minor point of order, Mr. Chairman. That should be:

 There is (as far as I know) no such function as "Help()".  It
is important to remember that R is case sensitive.

 Another point that is worthy of thought is "How in God's name

 There is (as far as I know) no such function as "Help()".  It is

 Another point that is worthy of thought is "How in God's name would
any beginner know or find out about the usage help(Startup)?"  Unless they
were explicitly told about it, in the manner which you just demonstrated.
The usage gets a mention in "An Introduction to R" --- but I had to search
for it.

 To me the word "startup" is not terribly intuitive.  I would tend to
search for "starting" rather than "startup", I think, but I'm not sure what
the average beginner would search for.  A search of "An Introduction to R"
for "starting" gets seven or eight hits, one of which is relevant.  So it
all takes patience and persistence.

 Also note that "An Introduction to R" mostly uses the word "startup"
(lower case "s") and only uses "Startup" twice.  Note also that

   help(startup)

 fails.  You have to get that initial "S" right.

 This isn't a criticism of the documentation.  I'm just pointing out
that there are problems, mostly insoluble.  Until some clever Johnny gets
on with developing that mind_read() function referred to in fortune(182).

Re: [R] question about the anova() function for deviance analysis

[Duncan Murdoch]

Dear Maintener,

I have recently had a bad experience with the anova() function.
Indeed, I wanted to process a deviance analysis between 2 mixed linear
models and I was really surprise to see that depending on the ordre in
which I gave my models, the function did not the same thing: once it
makes the anova of the first model and in the other ordre, it makes a
deviance analysis.
I make lots of formations to researchers who are not always very
comfortable either with R or with some statistical analysis and they
were really very disturbed by that.
Could this be possible to "secure" this anova function in order that
it does the same thing whatever the order in which the models are given?
Hope I was clear enought and many thanks in advance for your regard
about my question.


Could you please post a simple example?  I am guessing that the models 
you are comparing are from different modelling functions, so different 
anova methods were called (it's the first argument that determines what 
is called), but I'm not at all sure without seeing an example.


It doesn't need to be your original data, in fact simpler is better, but 
it should be code that anyone can run.

Re: [R] Return value from function with For loop

[Boris Steipe]

Ramnik,
a final mail is actually really important: this is to document in the archives, 
for the benefit of those who found the thread at a later time, that the 
responses indeed solved the problem. 

Other than that, the single most important advice is to
- provide a minimal working example of the problem;
- state clearly what you expect;
- state explicitly what happened instead.

Apparently you're doing fine in that regard.

 It's probably a good thing that you are confused. It suggests that you
 are actually "getting" the R-paradigm. Unfortunately for the new user of R,
 there are several levels of understanding to pass through. First, you
 realize that function-results need to be assigned to names in order to
 persist. Then there is the next level where you discover that there are
 exceptions to that rule: this levels is the level where you realize that 
 the
 `for` function is different from most other R functions.  It is really a
 side-effect-fucntion. The assignments made within its body actually persist
 in the global environment. AND it returns NULL. 

Re: [R] Setting .Rprofile for RStudio on a Windows 7 x64bit

[Bert Gunter]

I cannot add to the instructions that you have already been given
regarding .Rprofile.

But what code did you use in your .Rprofile to set the prompt? The
posting guide explicitly requests that you provide your code, although
maybe you already did earlier in this extensive thread.

?options

is how it can be set. Did you do this?

Re: [R] qqplot for binomial distribution

[Boris Steipe]

That's not how qqline() works. The line is drawn with respect to a 
_reference_distribution_ which is the normal distribution by default. For the 
binomial distribution, you need to specify the distribution argument. There is 
an example in the help page that shows you how this is done for qchisq(). for 
qbinom() it is:


set.seed(123)
qqplot(rbinom(n=100, size=100, p=0.05), 
   rbinom(n=100, size=100, p=0.05) )
 
qqline(rbinom(n=100,size=100,p=.05),
   distribution = function(probs) { qbinom(probs, size=100, prob=0.05) },
   col = "red",
   lwd = 0.5)

 instead if I say

 Then

You need backticks:

.Primitive("for")

.Primitive("next")

David either should have typed backticks, or he did type them, only to have a 
friendly e-mail client autocorrect them into quotes...

Re: [R] qqplot for binomial distribution

[Boris Steipe]

Moreover, setting the seed once, then evaluating two functions means you are 
sampling from the same distributions, but you do in fact have different values. 
Outliers in the rarefied tails of the distribution may lie quite considerably 
off the expected diagonal. Try

set.seed(123)
qqplot(rbinom(n=1000, size=1000, p=0.05),
   rbinom(n=1000, size=1000, p=0.05))

and you will find that you approximate the "1 clear line" quite well - for most 
of the values.

Re: [R] qqplot for binomial distribution

[Ashim Kapoor]

Dear Spencer,

Okay. Many thanks. My next query is how do I use qqline?

When I try

> qqline(rbinom(n=100,size=100,p=.05))

I don't get the line in the right place.

Ashim

  The distribution is discrete, and points are superimposed. Try 
the following:



set.seed(123)
qqplot(jitter(rbinom(n=100,size=100,p=.05)),

Re: [R] help on readBin in R

[Barry Rowlingson]

There's very little justification for attaching binary files to a
mailing list these days - share it on Dropbox, or Box, or Hubic, or
whatever MS or Google's cloud storage is, or simply tell us where it
was obtained from originally.

And to the original poster - some more context is very useful - where
did you get it from, what area is it supposed to cover, etc etc.

I hope you don't want to do any serious science with a data file that
you have no provenance for.

 Minor point of order, Mr. Chairman.  That should be:
 
   help(Startup)
 
 There is (as far as I know) no such function as "Help()".  It is important 
 to remember that R is case sensitive.
 
 Another point that is worthy of thought is "How in God's name would any 
 beginner know or find out about the usage help(Startup)?"  Unless they 
 were explicitly told about it, in the manner which you just demonstrated.  
 The usage gets a mention in "An Introduction to R" --- but I had to search 
 for it.
 
 To me the word "startup" is not terribly intuitive.  I would tend to 
 search for "starting" rather than "startup", I think, but I'm not sure 
 what the average beginner would search for.  A search of "An Introduction 
 to R" for "starting" gets seven or eight hits, one of which is relevant.  
 So it all takes patience and persistence.
 
 Also note that "An Introduction to R" mostly uses the word "startup" 
 (lower case "s") and only uses "Startup" twice.  Note also that
 
   help(startup)
 
 fails.  You have to get that initial "S" right.
 
 This isn't a criticism of the documentation.  I'm just pointing out that 
 there are problems, mostly insoluble.  Until some clever Johnny gets on 
 with developing that mind_read() function referred to in fortune(182).
 
 cheers,
 
 Rolf Turner

Re: [R] Return value from function with For loop

[David Winsemius]

Both 'for' and 'next' return TRUE from is.function 

is.function('for')
is.function('next')

Not at an R console at the moment but I did check this earlier today. Thinking 
of it as different is definitely the way to think about it. (ISTR Bert and I 
have had this exchange in the past.)
