Sorry - it is working as suggested by Joshua.
Thanks a lot and sorry for the horrible confusion and examples,
Rainer

What is wrong with what I suggested initially?

That it does not work?

Hi Rainer,
I got an error while replicating your data.frame construction.
But this worked for me
ctl = c(4.17,5.58,5.18,6.11,4.50,4.61,5.17,4.53,5.33,5.14)
trt = c(4.81,4.17,4.41,3.59,5.87,3.83,6.03,4.89,4.32,4.69)
dat <- data.frame( group = gl(2,10,20, labels=c("Ctl","Trt")),
weight = c(ctl, trt)
)
Sorry - to much garbage in my workspace left.
Just add:
rm(ctl)
rm(trt)
after the definition
lm(weight ~ group, data=dat, subset=trt>0)
this obviously works, but I would like to have:
subst <- trt>0
lm(weight ~ group, data=dat, subset=subst)
Sorry about this,
Rainer
Cheers

OK - here is an example:
dat <- data.frame(
ctl = c(4.17,5.58,5.18,6.11,4.50,4.61,5.17,4.53,5.33,5.14),
trt = c(4.81,4.17,4.41,3.59,5.87,3.83,6.03,4.89,4.32,4.69),
group = gl(2,10,20, labels=c("Ctl","Trt")),
weight = c(ctl, trt)
)
lm(weight ~ group, data=dat, subset=trt>0)
subst <- trt>0 ### here I get the obvious error: Error: object 'trt' not
found
# I want to use:
lm(weight ~ group, data=dat, subset=subst)
In general, ?substitute, ?bquote, and ?quote are useful to avoid
immediate evaluation of calls, but I don't know if that's relevant to
what you want here.
Looks promising from the help, but I don't get it to work.

Hi
I want to do a series of linear models, and would like to define the
input
arguments for lm() as variables. I managed easily to define the formula
arguments in a variable, but I also would like to have the "subset" in
a
variable. My reasoning is, that I have the subset in the results
object.
So I wiould like to add a line like:
subs <- dead==FALSE & recTreat==FALSE
which obviously does not work as the expression is evaluated
immediately. Is
is it possible to do what I want to do here, or do I have to go back
to use
dat <- subset(dat, dead==FALSE & recTreat==FALSE)
?
dat <- loadSPECIES(SPECIES)
feff <- height~pHarv*year # fixed effect in the model
reff <- ~year|plant # random effect in the model,
where
year is the
dat.lme <- lme(
fixed = feff, # fixed effect
in the
model
data = dat,
random = reff, # random effect
in the
model
correlation = corAR1(form=~year|plant), #
subset = dead==FALSE & recTreat==FALSE, #
na.action = na.omit
)
dat.lm <- lm(
formula = feff, # fixed effect in the model
data = dat,
subset = dead==FALSE & recTreat==FALSE,
na.action = na.omit
)
Thanks,
Rainer
