Basic Examples

<

pre>
# Create an empy model, and place it in an object.
model <- mxModel()

# Create a model named 'firstdraft' with one matrix

    model <- mxModel('firstdraft', mxMatrix('Full', nrow = 3, ncol = 3, name = "A"))

# Add other matrices to model 'firstdraft', and rename that model 'finaldraft'

model <- mxModel(model, name= "finaldraft",
                 mxMatrix('Symm', nrow = 3, name = "S"),
                 mxMatrix('Iden', nrow = 3, name = "F"))

# Add data to the model from an existing data frame in object 'data'

data <- data.frame()
model <- mxModel(model, mxData(data, type='raw'))

# View the matrix named "A" in MxModel object 'model'

model[["A"]]

# View the data associated with MxModel object 'model'

model@data

Remove an object from a model

You can remove paths, matrices, algebras, and other objects from a model using mxModel, with the to-be-modified model as its first parameter, and then a comma delimited list of the names of the objects you want to remove, setting remove to TRUE
e.g.

  aModel <- mxModel("aModel", mxMatrix(name="myMatrix", type="Full",nrow=8,ncol=5))
  aMinus <- mxModel(aModel,  "myMatrix", remove=TRUE)
