Hi Milan, I expect I may be able to do something about the way the terms are evaluated, to ensure the evaluation is done in the gnm namespace (while still ensuring the variables can be found!). In the meantime, I think the following will work: Mult <- gnm::Mult f <- Freq ~ Eye + Hair + Mult(Eye

I particularly like the suggestion to treat the matrices as numeric by default, but provide simple ways to use boolean arithmetic instead - this means that developers have access to both forms of arithmetic and i

I expect what's happened is that you have installed R at some point, then later updated Ubuntu, which caused the R repository you had stored to be disabled. Try running sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list If my guess is right, you will probably have something like # deb http:///bin/linux/ubuntu na

Re: [Rd] using predict method with an offset

2009-02-27 Thread Heather Turner
Hi Ken, First of all, whether you specify the offset by the argument or in the formula, your code requires that q25 is the same length as the variable Contr. You can set this up by defining your new data as follows: nd <- data.frame( Contr = cc , q25 = qlogis(0.25)) This sorts out the problem of

Dear Martin, I think a simulate.glm method ought to be able to work for gnm objects too. David Firth and I started to work on this a long time ago, but stopped part-way through when simulate.lm was introduced, thinking that simulate.glm was probably in the pipeline and we were duplicating effort.
