Hi, when I run> plot.default(z1, z2, xlab = "x", ylab = "y", main = "xxxx", pch = "+") > abline(lm(z1 ~ z2))then the plot is plotted perfectly (scatterplot), however, the lm() function doesnt appear on the plot. What could be wrong? (Yesterday it worked perfectly, with the lm() line.) Running R 2 on OS X. Mathias Hunsk??r Furevik Norway

What could be wrong? > > (Yesterday it worked perfectly, with the lm() line.)You've reversed the order of variables. Try abline(lm(z2 ~ z1)) Plot takes variables in the order x, y. lm takes variables in the order y ~ x. Duncan Murdoch
Hi Mathias, Try abline(lm(z2 ~ z1)) Mikkel ......................................

[R] Preprocessing troublesome files in R - looking for some perl like functionality
Hi all: I have acquired a 100s of data files that I need to preprocess to get them usable in R. The files are fixed width (to a point) and contain 1 to 3 lines of header, followed by a variable number of fixed width data lines (that I can read with read.fwf). I want to read through the files and remove every _line_ where characters column 83-86 do not equal "STD". If I can do that and store it in a text file, then I can get the data I need using read.fwf. I can't figure out how to do this because of the irregularity of the header info buried in the file. It seems like the kind of thing perl or emacs would be good at but I'd like to do it all in R if possible. Any pointers appreciated. -Andy R > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system i386, mingw32 status major 2 minor 1.0 year 2005 month 04 day 18 language R ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a snippet of one of the data files: 929 2 Russia Dahurian larch 150 6946-11249 1830 1990 - RAW RUSS061830 568 11122 1 806 1 843 2 862 3 902 31244 3 986 31210 31074 3 RAW RUSS0618401369 4 937 41154 4 869 4 702 4 716 4 972 4 682 5 878 5 582 5 RAW 929 2 Russia Dahurian larch 150 6946-11249 1830 1990 - STD RUSS061830 568 11122 1 806 1 843 2 862 3 902 31244 3 986 31210 31074 3 STD RUSS0618401369 4 937 41154 4 869 4 702 4 716 4 972 4 682 5 878 5 582 5 STD RUSS0619701158 26 906 26 954 26 746 26 629 26 858 261268 261345 261102 261298 26 STD RUSS061980 483 26 780 26 995 261273 261391 26 996 261621 26 878 261418 26 514 26 STD RUSS0619901071 269990 09990 09990 09990 09990 09990 09990 09990 09990 0 STD 929 2 Russia Dahurian larch 150 6946-11249 1830 1990 - RES RUSS061830 604 11215 1 889 1 828 2 909 3 982 31294 3 947 31091 31030 3 RES RUSS0618401290 4 858 41057 4 917 4 712 4 824 41077 4 709 5 911 5 747 5 RES RUSS061850 873 5 994 51179 71040 71028 7 923 71120 7 846 101146 11 854 13 RES RUSS0618601609 141209 16 780 16 758 171238 171191 17 858 17 903 17 930 18 334 18 RES 929 2 Russia Dahurian larch 150 6946-11249 1830 1990 - ARS RUSS061850 873 5 994 51179 71040 71028 7 923 71120 7 846 101146 11 854 13 ARS RUSS0618601609 141209 16 780 16 758 171238 171191 17 858 17 903 17 930 18 334 18 ARS
