ggplot rank stack bar automatically.
Hi, all, I am currently trying to learn this example. http://learnr.wordpress.com/2009/03/17/ggplot2-barplots/ I created the stack bar easily. If I would like to rank the stack bar from the highest on the right, shortest on the left and eventually I could show the data "1991-00" on the left and "1823-30" on the right, how could I do that? Apart from this, I find

Any existing functions for reading and extracting data from path names?
Hi helpeRs, I have inherited a set of data files that use the file system as a sort of poor man's database, i.e., the data files are nested in directories that indicate which city they come from. For example: dir.create("deleteme") for(i in paste("deleteme", c("New York", "Los Angeles"), sep="/")) { dir.create(i) for(j in

Equivalent of log file in R?
Hi everyone, Is there a way to make R save the workspace output (just the results, not the objects themselves) as you go? I'm running analysis that takes a long time to run and I want to be able to interrupt it without losing all the output to date. Is there an alternative to putting "save.image()" commands after every couple lines of code? Best, Tatyana

reshape package cast() function
Hi all, I think I'm cracking up. Please help me understand why I'm getting different results with m.test and m.test2 in the example below. > library(reshape) Loading required package: plyr > > m.test <- data.frame(id = factor(rep(1:10, 2)), variable=rep(c("var1","var2"),10), value=rnorm(20)) > cast(m.test, ...~variable, value="value") ## cast

aggregate function - na.action
Can someone please tell me what is up with na.action in aggregate? My (somewhat) reproducible example: (I say somewhat because some lines wouldn't run in a separate session, more below) set.seed(100) dat=data.frame( x1=sample(c(NA,'m','f'), 100, replace=TRUE), x2=sample(c(NA, 1:10), 100, replace=TRUE), x3=sample(c(NA,letters[1:5]), 100, replace=TRUE),

A naive question about permutation tests in the coin package
Dear R helpers, I am trying to understand how to use the independence_test function in the coin package. I think I suffer from a misunderstanding about what the package does. Either that or I do not understand how to use it properly. Specifically, I cannot understand if I can test independence of arbitrary statistics. Take the following example: set.seed(10) d <- data.frame(y = c(rnorm(10,

Accessing the index of factor in by() function
Hello, Here are three vectors to give context to my question below: *id <- c(1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3)) month <- c(1, 1, 2, 3, 6, 2, 3, 6, 1, 3, 5) value <- c(10, 12, 11, 14, 16, 12, 10, 8, 14, 11, 15)* and I want to plot "value" over "month" separately for each "id". Before I can do that, I need to section both month and value, based on ID. I create a

R console Mac
Hi there, I recently switched to Mac and I wonder if there is any way to get the R console to autocomplete names of list objects or slots of objects. The command line version allows to type e.g. list$ and two times the tab button and then comes up with the names of the list objects. Same for slots of e.g. Eset objects like eset. Unfortunately this does not work in the Mac R console. Is there a

how to pass user input to a function?
Hi everyone, I'm building a website (http://yourpsyche.org) using Jeffrey Horner's awesome Rapache module. I want to take user input, and pass it to an R script. At first I was simply using if else statements, but after a while I had so many nested if else's in my code that my head was spinning. So then I started using cat() and source() to write temporary files and read them back in

Levels in returned data.frame after subset
Dear List, When I subset a data.frame, the levels are not re-adjusted (see example). Why is this? Am I missing out on some basic stuff here?

Time vs Concentration Graphs by ID
Hello-- I have a data for small population who took 1 drug at 3 different doses. I have the actual drug concentrations as well as predicted concentrations by my model. This is what I'm looking for: - Time vs Concentration by ID (individual plots), with each subject occupying 1 plot -- there is to be 9 plots per page (3x3) - Observed drug concentration is made up of points, and predicted drug
