Would you be able to send me the code for this? I would love to use this approach to display a different set of data. E-mail is klh1005@gmail.com, thanks in advance!

This is a great utility and I've used this for presentations. One proble, is extracting the the output. I've found that the output needs to be converted to jpeg (for example), which requires finding another utility. Word-clouds can also be generated on IBM's Many Eyes site (free) and using Wordaizer (spelling?), which is also a free utility, but you need to install it locally.

Very nice presentation of the graphics. Now I did only skim the text so I apologize if you discussed the following. One of the problems with comparing various places, especially when there are large differences in relative prices, is the fact your optimal choices will be very different in each city -- One place you might find you enjoy lots of nights out and a tiny apartment, another you find a large place and lots of entertaining are better. Those differences are hard to communicate.

thx u very much, i learn a lot

If you found density interesting then be sure to look at bkde2D in the KernSmooth package. Perspective and contour plots get you well beyond this limitations of correlation coefficients.

So have you succeeded in installing ImageMagick in the end?

You can run animations as GIFs and created animated GIFs which can be posted and work with any browser. If you stay with PNGs, you can create an animated PNG online:
http://animatedpng.com/index.php/assembler/ and post these to your blog. Anyone with Firefox or Opera can view them online (or by opening the file from a desktop). I tried this with one of your examples and it works perfectly.

Don't see anything there except a search engine. What did you to do to generate the word cloud?

Saludos desde Barcelona, Catalunya, España.

Curiosamente yo también he empezado este verano (2009-08-01) a escribir un blog (en castellano-español) para promocionar el uso de este lenguaje de programación. Podéis visitarlo en

http://erre-que-erre-paco.blogspot.com

Estoy abierto a colaborar en un único blog para aunar fuerzas. No importa el idioma: español (preferentemente) o inglés.

En cuanto a aprender sobre R, tengo un curso básico con materiales en la Universidad de Barcelona:

Espero que os sea útil.

Un abrazo.

Hola Lucas,

Antes que nada gracias por dar un vistazo a lo que escribo, de verdad muchas gracias.

En cuanto a R te comento, como ya habrás leído soy actuario (ahora ye terminé la universidad), lo que en actuario hace básicamente son modelos estocásticos, por lo cuál el análisis estadístico y el uso de este tipo de softwares nos es indispensable, yo comencé aprendiendo solo, y ya cuando vi estaba dando clases en mi universidad de esto, y pues s te ayuda yo tengo varios manuales en PDF que podrían ayudarte, si no te molesta pásame tu dirección de e-mail y yo puedo mandartelos por ahí, y cualquier duda que tengas no dudes en preguntarme.

2009-03-29T19:21:00.000-06:00

Buenas, perdón por no escribir en Inglés, se me complica un poco así que preferí el Español... Te comento que soy de Argentina, y estoy empezando una Maestría en Generación y Análisis de Información Estadística. Una profesora nos comentó de este paquete estadístico y la verdad me interesaría profundizarme en el tema pero todavía no sé como. ¿Qué me recomendarías?
Desde ya muchas gracias, saludos desde Buenos Aires!!!
