(Jose' Pinheiro is not the primary maintainer of nlme for R: should the DESCRIPTION file be clarified to send comment to Doug Bates?)
Well after trying to fix the assign commands in version 3.1.7 of your nlme
package
I still cannot get the plot functions to work. Basically I have no other
packages installed (apart from those provided with R) so nlme is the first.
my R version info is; platform sparc-sun-solaris2.7 arch sparc os solaris2.7 system sparc, solaris2.7 status major 1 minor 1.0 year 2000 month June day 15 language R I have downloaded nlme version 3_1.7 from the CRAN site. I have been trying the example code from the plot.gls command. However, the
plotcommand fails because the assigns use where instead of envir. So I changed these and still recieved and error telling me that envir was being misused. From what I could see the envir were being used in default mode so I simply removed them. Now when I run the code I get the following;
library(nlme) Loading required package: nls
data(Ovary) fm1 <- gls(follicles ~ sin(2*pi*Time) + cos(2*pi*Time), Ovary,
+ correlation = corAR1(form = ~ 1 | Mare))
plot(fm1, resid(., type = "p") ~ fitted(.) | Mare, abline = 0)
[[1]] coplot $show.given [1] FALSE (and a very blank graph screen).
example(plot.gls) does no plotting, which is a fair indication that this is not supposed to work.
Also if I run the following (plot.variogram example) I get the following;
Did you mean plot.Variogram?
data(Ovary) fm1 <- lme(follicles ~ sin(2*pi*Time) + cos(2*pi*Time), Ovary) plot(Variogram(fm1, form = ~ Time | Mare, maxDist = 0.7))
Error in FUN(X[[1]], ...) : couldn't find function "dist"
dist is in library(mva), and again the code is omitted in example(plot.Variogram),
Has anybody got this code to work. I suspect looking at the code and the
calls to bwplot and xyplot (all of which are S-plus) that not all this code has been converted. I am new to R and thus am I being niave to expect all the code (particularly the plotting routines) to work with R? Yes. I thought it said so in the package, but can't see it at a quick glance. Should nlme have a STATUS or PORTING file as some other R packages do?
