Hello, if we suppose that times <- c("2006-05-14", "2006-06-12", "2006-06-12", "2006-05-14", "2006-05-14", "2006-06-12") value <- c(2,3,1,4,3,1) then with plot(times, value) we have two boxplots in one graph for 2006-05-14 and 2006-06-12 respectively! Is it possible to have them in a scatterplot? and

Dear List, A student in the Department where I work would like to produce a graphic similar to this one: http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2009/09/16/Public_spending_160909.pdf Does anyone know if the figure in the pdf can be generated in a specific software application for example? Any suggestions would be most gratefully received by the student concerned. Many thanks,

Hello there, I'm trying to plot vectors with p<0.1 in a NMDS ordination plot using p.max. Below the scripts I'm using. I guess I'm missing something! could you please give me a hand? species<-metaMDS(species_matrix)ef<-envfit(species,environmentaldata_file,permu=999,na.rm=TRUE)efplot(species, dis="sites")plot(ef,p.max=0.1) Error in plot.envfit(ef, p.max = 0.1) :

Sorry to disturb you, but can you help me to solve one little problem? I want to draw a graphic after another with R but I cannot find the first one after that. Do you know the command to hold the graphic with R? I remember with Matlab you may use "hold on". Thanks. -- Baohua Yang Email:yangbaohua@gmail.com [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, I need to add a subscript and a superscript to some of the ions in the labels on some plots. I have got to here but now I'm stuck: plot(1:10, xlab = expression(paste("nm SO"[4], " ", mu, "eq cm"^{-2}, " yr"^{-1}))) Which gives almost what I require. No matter what I tried, however, I could not get bot a sub script *and* a superscript

Hi, there, I cannot get accurate value for calculation. for example: ld<-sqrt(1*0.05*0.95*0.05*0.95) 0.05*0.95-ld=-6.938894e-18 0.05*0.95-ld==0 is False. I met this problem in my program, how can I handle it. Thanks. xj.

There is a R function to calculate weighted mean : weighted.mean() under stats package. Is there any direct R function for calculating weighted variance as well? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear List, I often have to merge two or more data frames containing unique row names but with some columns (names) common to the two data frames and some columns not common. This toy example will explain the kind of setup I am talking about: mat1 <- as.data.frame(matrix(rnorm(20), nrow = 5)) mat2 <- as.data.frame(matrix(rnorm(20), nrow = 4)) rownames(mat1) <- paste("site",

Dear all I try to format labels on axis as standard ones does not look well, but I am not able to make axis.POSIXct to work. here is an example x<-seq(as.Date("2008-1-1"), as.Date("2009-9-6"), by="2 months") y<-rnorm(11) plot(x,y) #not very sophisticated axis plot(x,y, axes=F) axis(2) axis.POSIXct(1, at=x, format="%m/%Y") # no axis The same is on
