[R] For each entry type in column?

How can I do a for loop that does to a data.frame column what: for x in xs: does in Python? Obviously the data.frame column in question holds "levels". What if the data.frame is in matrix form? BR, Matti __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To

[R] How to solve "nlm() non-finite value supplied by 'nlm'" and how to constrain parameters to (0, 1)?

So I'm getting: Error in nlm(neglikhood, p = c(0.1, 0.1), hessian = T, x = elinajat) : non-finite value supplied by 'nlm' In addition: There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50) with the following (neglikelihood of 1-param. Weibull): neglikhood <- function(theta,x)

[R] How is label parameter used in text() when passing it a vector?

I have a slight doubt with using text() with the label parameter having to contain a vector of of integers (specifically integers in the range [1, 21] corresponding to factors of my categorical variable that I want to numbers to tell). What I'm currently plotting is the following command: tex

[R] How to use predict() so that one retains the rows that they're associated with?

I'm using predict() for my glm() logistic model, but I'm having trouble relating the predicted results to the rows that produced them. I want to be able to plot predictions along some categorical variables. So what can I do in order to get predicted values but also know what variable values pr

[R] How to read prediction intervals given by predict()?

My conception of prediction intervals is the following: "a prediction interval gives an interval within which we expect next y_i to lie with a specified probability" So when using predict() for my model: predict(fit4, interval="prediction")[1:20,] I get: fit lwr upr 1 491

[R] What does lm() output coefficient mean when it's been given a categorical predictor of string values?

I'm using lm() for a model that has a predictor that has two values {poika, tyttö} (boy and girl in Finnish). I make a model with this categorical variable: fit1 <- lm(dta$X.U.FEFF..mpist. ~ dta$sukup + dta$HISEI + dta$SES) and while the variable/vector is here named as dta$sukup, what lm() r

[R] Can I get odd ratios from lm() model or only glm()?

I'm doing logistic regression and I need to infer the coefficients as odds ratios. I first did my model using lm(), but now that I need odd ratios, then should I have used glm() like displayed here: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Odds-ratio-from-Logistic-model-in-R-td2630277.html

[R] Why removing the (Intercept) from lm is done by adding -1?

So I found out that to remove the (Intercept) term from lm's model one can add -1 to the predictors. I.e. do lm(resp ~ x1 + x2 - 1) Another way is to add 0, e.g. lm(resp ~ 0 + x1 + x2). Adding (or setting the (Intercept) term) zero seems more logical than subtracting one, but why is there the

[R] Using lm's subset parameter results in Error in xj[i] : invalid subscript type 'list'

I'm trying to take lm on a subset of my dataset and to do this I believe I need to pass my subset of the data as the subset parameter of lm. So I do my subsetting: firstkids <- kidmomhsage[0:234,], i.e. the first 234 rows of the data frame. Then construct the model: fit4 <- lm(kidmomhsage$k

So I'm a beginner in R and I was testing the removal of elements from a data.frame. The way I remove the element(s) with the minimum value in kid_score variable is to do: kidmomhs <- data[kidmomhs$kid_score != min(kidmomhs$kid_score),] So now kidmomhs is the same data, but without the row(s)
