Hi: A trip to package sos reveals that simple.lm() is in the UsingR package. Looking at the code of this function, it plots the (x, y) pairs and the fitted least squares line without an option to suppress the plot. Here's a slight hack of the function; it adds a new argument plot with default action TRUE; after the linear model is fit, an if statement tests to see if the plot is desired; if FALSE, it simply returns the (print method of the) fitted object.
simple.lm2 <- function (x, y, plot = TRUE, show.residuals = FALSE, show.ci = FALSE, conf.level = 0.95, pred = FALSE) { op <- par() ord <- order(x) x <- x[ord] y <- y[ord] tmp.lm <- lm(y ~ x) if(!plot) return(tmp.lm) else { if (show.residuals) { par(mfrow = c(2, 2)) } plot(x, y) abline(tmp.lm) if (show.ci) { xvals <- seq(min(x), max(y), length = 15) curve(predict(tmp.lm, data.frame(x = x), level = conf.level, interval = "confidence")[, 3], add = TRUE) curve(predict(tmp.lm, data.frame(x = x), level = conf.level, interval = "confidence")[, 2], add = TRUE) curve(predict(tmp.lm, data.frame(x = x), level = conf.level, interval = "prediction")[, 3], lty = 3, add = TRUE) curve(predict(tmp.lm, data.frame(x = x), level = conf.level, interval = "prediction")[, 2], lty = 3, add = TRUE) } coeffs <- floor(tmp.lm$coeff * 100 + 0.5)/100 plusorminus <- c("+") if (coeffs[1] < 0) plusorminus <- c("") title(paste("y = ", coeffs[2], "x ", plusorminus, coeffs[1])) if (show.residuals) { Fitted <- fitted.values(tmp.lm) Residuals <- residuals(tmp.lm) plot(Fitted, Residuals) abline(h = 0) title("Residuals vs. fitted") hist(Residuals, main = "hist of residuals") qqnorm(Residuals, main = "normal plot of residuals") qqline(Residuals) } if (pred) { print(predict(tmp.lm, data.frame(x = pred))) } } tmp.lm } ##### # Simple test: plot(x <- 1:10) y <- 5*x + rnorm(10,0,1) tmp1 <- simple.lm2(x, y, plot = FALSE) summary(tmp1) # Produces the plot simple.lm2(x, y) HTH, Dennis On Thu, Oct 27, 2011 at 7:35 AM, David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net> wrote: > > On Oct 27, 2011, at 6:58 AM, Elinor Zeev wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I am using PostgreSQL 9.1 and want to run >> >> >> loglinear_simple<-simple.lm(x$p_overPnot,x$logQuantity,show.ci >> =FALSE,conf.level=confidenceLevel) >> >> without showing the graph, however the show.ci=FALSE is ignored. > > My guess (and it is a guess since you did not specify a package for > simple.lm) is that specifying a conf.level is over-riding the show.ci > parameter.
