I have a big dataset with 30000 rows and 60 columns (variables).  I would like to implement factor analysis aiming to find factors between variables.  What kind of factor analysis and what measures I should check to find if the factors are fine?
I have a dataset with a large number of Yes/No responses. Can I use principal components (PCA) or any other data reduction analyses (such as factor analysis) for this type of data? Please advise how I go about doing this using SPSS.
Cyclic orbit animation I'm trying to make one object orbit another. But I want it to repeat, rather than stop at 100 frames. It seems there is no option for this. Is there a way to make this happen? I have been running  over some C# code, and it keeps reporting that my using directives should be inside the namespace.  Is there a technical reason for putting the using directives inside instead of outside the namespace? Does installing and using Wine open up your Linux platform to Windows viruses? Where's the summary of your own suggested edits? Is the Macbook 12 inch's USB-C charger interchangeable with other USB-C chargers or devices? If there is only the Macbook 12 inch USB-C charger nearby, can it be used to charge other USB-C devices, such as any Android phones that also use USB-C? (will it be "too powerful" and damage other devices?)  Vice versa, if there is a Quick Charge 2.0 or 3.0 USB-C charger from other devices nearby, can it be used to charge the Macbook 12 inch?  The main concern is about whether it could damage the device or battery. Getting the array length of a 2D array in Java What is the concept of erasure in generics in Java? Find $\lim_{n \to \infty} \left[\frac{(n+1)^{n + 1}}{n^n} - \frac{n^{n}}{(n-1)^{n-1}} \right]$ (a question asked at trivia) After upgrading to 12.10 quantal, the packaged version of fglrx no longer works. I discovered that this is because there is a separate 'legacy' fglrx driver for the HD 2k-4k series cards, but it is incompatible with the xorg server on 12.10.  This is the most current version of the driver for HD 2000 through HD 4000 series cards. You can't use the non-legacy fglrx driver, but you can use the open-source radeon driver if you prefer your WM compositing to be laggy and your YouTube videos to play like they would on a Pentium MMX series:    Usually this driver can be installed in the following way, necessary because apt-get install fglrx would pull in the non-legacy driver:  wget http://www2.ati.com/drivers/legacy/amd-driver-installer-12.6-legacy-x86.x86_64.zip unzip amd-driver-installer-* sudo sh ./amd-driver-installer-*.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/quantal sudo dpkg -i fglrx*.deb sudo aticonfig --initial -f   If you use a different version of fglrx (for example, a newer 12.9 that doesn't support those cards) then the final command will give you an error no supported hardware detected or something similar. However, everything works at this point and you will get a reasonable xorg.conf:  ... other stuff  Section "Device"         Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"         Driver      "fglrx"         BusID       "PCI:1:5:0" EndSection  ... other stuff   At this point you're supposed to reboot and everything will be working with the fglrx driver. However, upon rebooting, you'll be treated to the following errors in Xorg.0.log when fglrx attempts to load:  (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.so: undefined symbol: noXFree86DRIExtension   Some searching around will show that this is a problem with the legacy ATI drivers not supporting xserver 1.13 or newer. () ATI has released a fixed driver for its most recent (HD 5000 series or later) cards, but not for the 'legacy' cards yet. The non-legacy ATI drivers can't be used with the old cards.  What should an Ubuntu user, using one of these HD 2000-4000 series cards, do?    Wait for an updated 'legacy' ATI driver that properly works with xserver 1.13?   Downgrade back to 12.04 Precise, which uses xserver 1.11? Try to downgrade xserver on 12.10 Quantal to 1.12, which could possibly break Unity and GNOME? Forced upgrade to HD 5000 series or later card? (Not possible with integrated graphics...) Some other 1337 action that fixes this problem painlessly? GTA 5 Social club I used to play gta 5 online on my ps3 but it ended up breaking and I can't use it anymore I purchased the game for xbox 360 and started playing the game all over again and some of you know how hard that can be specially online.. So I was wondering if I could somehow transfer my old ps3 social club account to my xbox an use it on xbox from now on? override at runtime __setattr__ Why does a circle enclose the largest area? Odds of rolling doubles or triples given N 6-sided dice Over the holidays I played a dice game where each player had 3 to 7 d6 to roll each turn.  The game gave certain advantages to doubles and triples.  I wanted to know the odds of rolling doubles or triples given N dice to understand the importance of "upgrading" to more dice.  My question is really about how to reason about such problems:  It's easy to see that the odds of rolling doubles with 2 d6 are 1/6 (first die can be anything, and 1/6 of the time the second will match).  It's also easy to see that with 7 dice the odds are 1.0 (6 dice could be 1..6, but the 7th must match one of them).  The middle cases are fuzzier to me.  I ended up writing a program to enumerate all of the possibilities (even 6^7 is only 279,936 cases to evaluate) because that was the only way I felt I could verify any closed formula I came up with.  This also enabled me to distinguish cases of multiple doubles (or triples).  I would like to know how to derive closed forms and how to validate such solutions without brute-force simulation. Using principal component analysis (PCA) for feature selection How to delete a file with a path too long to be deleted I have a question about inheritance in Java.  I have two classes A and B , and class B, inherits from A:  public class A {      public A() {          System.out.println("Hi!");      } }   public class B extends A {      public B() {          System.out.println("Bye!");      }       public static void main(String[] args) {          B b = new B();      } }   When I run program B, the output is:  Hi! Bye!      Question : why the constructor of class A is invoked, when I create and object of class B ?    I know that B inherits everything from A - all instance or class variables, and all methods, and in this sense an object of B has all characteristics of A plus some other characteristics defined in B. However, I didn't know and didn't imagine that when I create an object of type B, the constructor of A is also invoked. So, writing this:  B b = new B();   creates Two objects - one of type B, and one of type A.  This is getting interesting,   can somebody explain why exactly this happens? How do I call legacy PHP files? I am unable to call PHP files inside the Drupal directory. My task is maintaining staff's old pages on the new platform. With pages written on clear HTML, there is no problem: I place files in a folder I created (domain.org/sites/default/files/share/staff_folder).  In sites/default/files/.htaccess I added DirectoryIndex share and now the link to the domain.org/sites/default/files/share/staff_folder/index.html can be used. When I import pages written in PHP, e.g. calling domain.org/sites/default/files/share/staff2_folder/index.php, I get a 403 error:     Forbidden      You don't have permission to access /sites/default/files/share/staff2_folder/index.php on this server.   While /sites/default/files/share/staff2_folder/index.html still works. How to concatenate a variable number of csv, removing their header rows? How to change boot priority? I have a laptop with Ubuntu installed as the only OS. I also have a USB stick with a Windows 7 installation on it. I want to install Windows from the USB stick on my laptop but when I try to restart the laptop to get access to BIOS, I can't seem to find the command for it, its like it skips everything and just says Ubuntu and then takes me to the login screen.
