Hi
First you shall move your folders to some other place than c:. Let say
c:\project\country\...
after that you can list folders by ?list.dirs and files by ?list.files.
you can then navigate directories by ?setwd, ?getwd and read files from them.
The exact code depends on what exactly you have and want to do and I wonder if
anybody can give canned solution for you, especially when your files have
various origin.
Here is a sample of code reading files from folders, calculating some values,
plotting some graphs and writing final result.
wd<- getwd()
dirs<-list.dirs()
dirs<-dirs[-1]
n <- length(dirs)
pigm<-gsub("./([[:alnum:]])","\\1", dirs)
vysled <- data.frame(MinFeret=rep(NA, n), ECD = rep(NA, n),
aspect= rep(NA,n), pigment=rep("X", n), stringsAsFactors=F)
for (i in 1:length(dirs)) {
setwd(wd)
setwd(dirs[i])
if(file.exists("Results.xls")) {
velik<-read.delim("Results.xls")
zeros <- which(velik[,c(2,3,7)]<5, arr.ind=T)[,1]
if (length(zeros)>0) velik<-velik[-zeros,]
velik$ecd<-sqrt(4*velik$Area/pi)
velik$aspect<-velik$Feret/velik$MinFeret
velik <- velik[,-1]
maxx<-ceiling(max(velik$ecd)/100)*100
png(paste(pigm[i], "png", sep="."), 800,800)
plot(ecdf(velik$ecd), col=3, main=pigm[i], xlab="Particle size nm",
ylab="Cummulative percentage ECD", xlim=c(0,maxx))
plot(ecdf(velik$MinFeret), col=4, main=pigm[i], xlab="Particle size
nm",
ylab="Cummulative percentage MinFeret", xlim=c(0,maxx), add=T)
abline(v=100, h=.5, col="pink", lwd=5)
legend(450, .2, legend=c("ECD", "MinFeret"), fill=3:4)
dev.off()
png(paste(paste(pigm[i], "ECD"), "png", sep="."),
800,800)
plot(ecdf(velik$ecd), col=3, main=pigm[i], xlab="Particle size nm",
ylab="Cummulative percentage ECD", xlim=c(0,maxx))
abline(v=100, h=.5, col="pink", lwd=5)
dev.off()
vysled[i,1:2]<- round(apply(velik[,6:7], 2, median),0)
vysled[i,3]<- round(median(velik[,8]),3)
vysled[i,4] <- pigm[i] } else {
vysled[i,4] <- pigm[i]}
setwd(wd)
write.table(vysled, "vysled.xls", sep="\t", row.names=F,
na="")
}
Cheers
