svyhist
Hi Anthony,
The ylim () has been added to the code (please see below), and I got 4 plots that have the same y -dimension.
Each plot displays 2 distributions - one as histogram from the data and another one as line (i.e., idealized theoretical normal distribution?).
My question is, "Is there way to change the distribution in the line () function and try other theoretical distribution to approximate the observed distribution?"
Thanks,
Pradip Muhuri

?ylim says "numeric vectors of length 2" - so just the beginning and end.
?svyhist doesn't specifically mention the ylim parameter, meaning you should look for a "..." in the arguments list and click through to the page for ?hist
?hist has an example that shows the ylim parameter only containing the beginning and end values.
try using
ylim = c( 0 , 0.030 )
if you're looking to set the tick marks, look at ?axis ;)

Dear Anthony and David,
Sorry- the earlier-sent plots were mislabeled, which I have corrected and attached. But, the y-lim issue is yet to be resolved.
Thanks,
Pradip Muhuri

this worked for me -- and doesn't require removing the PSUs from the design :)
options( survey.lonely.psu = "adjust" )
svyhist (~dthage,
subset (nhis, xspd2=='No SPD'), breaks=MyBreaks, main= " ",
col="grey80",
xlab="Age at Death Distribution"
)
lines (svysmooth(~dthage, bandwidth=5,subset(nhis, xspd2=='No SPD')), lwd=2)
Dr. Lumley has written quite a bit about single-PSU strata here: http://faculty.washington.edu/tlumley/survey/exmample-lonely.html

This is the top of the output of str applied to the data argument you offered to svyhist:
> str(subset (nhis, xspd2==2) )
List of 9
$ cluster :'data.frame': 0 obs. of 1 variable:
..$ psu: Factor w/ 47 levels "109.1","115.2",..:
..- attr(*, "terms")=Classes 'terms', 'formula' length 2 ~psu
.. .. ..- attr(*, "variables")= language list(psu)
.. .. ..- attr(*, "factors")= int [1, 1] 1
.. .. .. ..- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2
.. .. .. .. ..$ : chr "psu"
.. .. .. .. ..$ : chr "psu"
At least one problem seems pretty clear. No data. That can be corrected by wrapping as.numeric() around the factor on which you are subsetting in two places.
Another problem may arise when you restrict to one class only, namely there won't any "design" to work with. All the clusters .... there would be only one .... no longer have any multiplicity, and svyhist apparently isn't built to handle situation, at least with that design argument.
Error in onestrat(x[index, , drop = FALSE], clusters[index], nPSU[index][1], :
Stratum (2) has only one PSU at stage 1
Taking the 'stratum' argument out of the design() spec allows it to proceed, but I do not know if that is introducing invalidity in the analysis.
