help with function
Hello everyone,
I have a function here that I wrote but doesn't seem to work quite
right. Attached is the code. In the calib funcion under the for loop
Bt[i+2]<-(1-m)*Bt[i+1]+Rt[i]*Rerr-Ct[i+1] returns NA's for everything
after years 1983 and 1984. However the code works when it reads
Bt[i+2]<-(1-m)*Bt[i+1]+Rt[i]*Rerr-Ct[i]. I don't quite understand why
since it should be

Vertical subtraction in dataframes
Hello all,
I have not been able to find an answer to this problem. I feel like it might
be so simple though that it might not get a response.
Suppose I have a dataframe like the one I have copied below (minus the
'calib' column). I wish to create a column like calib where I am subtracting
the 'Count' when 'stain' is 'none' from all other 'Count' data for

problems sourcing in vs interactive
If I source in the function (see below) calib(), I get:
> source("papers/helle/threshold.r")
> calib()
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : Object "energy" not found
But if I cut and paste the code for calib() one line at a time into the R
window it works fine.
calib<-function()
{
contrast<-c(.01,.02,.0325,.055,.0775,.1,.125,.15,.175,.2)

randomize a matrix
Hello everyone,
If I have an incidence matrix of 0 and 1's
P=[1 1 1 1 1 1
1 1 1 1 0 0
1 1 1 0 0 0
1 1 1 0 0 0
1 1 0 0 0 0]
I want to create a new uniform random matrix [a] that is filled with 0's
and 1's but constrained so that the row and column sums are the same as
in [P]. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance

Warning message help
I am trying to great a new column of effort data from an existing vector

It is a simple code where

The code appears to work for some of the data but fails for others and
inserts a NA value

subset
Hello everyone,
I have a large dataset (x) with some rows that have duplicate variables
that I would like to remove. I find which rows are the duplicates with
X1<-which(duplicated(x)). That gives me the rows with duplicated
variables. Now, how can I remove just those rose from the original data
frame. I think I can create a new data frame without the duplicates
using subset. I have tried:

Aggregate?
Hello,
I have a data set with a grouping variable (TRIPID) and several other
variables. TRIPID is repeated in some areas and I would like to use a
function like aggregate to sum the variable UNITS according to TRIPID.
However I would also like to retain the other variables as they are in
the data set with the new summed TRIPID.
So what I have is something like this:

Evaluating a function with another function
Hello all,
I hope someone can help me with this.
I have function that calculates two values based on input data. A
simple example follows:
test<-function(x,s,rangit=seq(0,10,1))
{
rangit<-rangit
y<-vector()
p<-vector()
for(i in 0:length(rangit)){
y[i]<-x+s[1]+rangit[i]
p[i]<-x+s[2]+rangit[i]
}
return(data.frame(rangit,y,p))
}
And returns the following:
