search for: columnns

Hi all, I have a columnn with text that has quite a few words in it. I would like to split these words in separate columns, but just first ten words in the string. Is that possible in R? Thank you, m [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi Steven, Thank you for the help. I get an error though when i do this : >lit<-read.csv("litologija.csv", sep=";", dec=".") >sent <-data.frame(sentence=lit$Opis,stringsAsFactors=FALSE) >str(sent) >sentV<-rep(sent,10) >str(sentV) >first=second=third=fourth=fifth=sixth=seventh=eighth=ninth=tenth<-vector(length=10) >DF

Hi, I'm completely new to R, I am all at sea with the interface and the confusing help files, so would appreciate some help to do a simple task. Need to present the mean and variance of 100 different samples of poisson distributions (N=1000, with fixed lambda) in a file in two columnns, and then produce histograms. So far I have figured out: > N <- 1000 > x <- rpois(N, 3.1) , and > var(x) and > mean(x) , and I've seen the hist command, just need to tie it all together. I read that loops aren't really used in R, so what do i need to do? thanks --...

Dear all, Can I use "write.table" to append columnns? Thanks for any help -MY [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Also, and possibly more constructively, when you get an error like > CI.c = predict(mod2, data.frame( `plant-density` = x), interval = 'c') # fail Error in eval(predvars, data, env) : object 'plant-density' not found you should check your assumptions. Does "newdata" actually contain a columnn called "plant-density": > head(data.frame( `plant-density`

"Thank you Rui. I didn't know about the check.names = FALSE argument. > Another good reminder to always read help, but I'm not sure I understood > what help to read in this case" ?data.frame , of course, which says: "check.names logical. If TRUE then the names of the variables in the data frame are checked to ensure that they are syntactically valid variable names

I have a text file that has semi-colon separated values. The table is nearly 10,000 by 585. The files looks as follows: ******************************************* First line: Skip this line Second line: skip this line Third line: skip this line variable1 Variable2 Variable3 Variable4 Unit1 Unit2 Unit3 10 0.1 0.01 0.001 20
