...=10, the last for loop is over 11:10. Usually programming laguages would regard what corresponds to 11:10 as empty, but A:B with A bigger than B is in R interpreted as the numbers from B to A in reverse order. Is there a clever way to make nested loops like the one above in R? -- Michael Knudsen micknudsen at gmail.com http://lifeofknudsen.blogspot.com/

...ative > a = (1:9)/10 works just fine. Are there any good guides out there on how to deal with issues like this? I am normally aware of rounding errors, but it really surprised me to see that an elementary function like seq would behave in this way. Thanks, Michael Knudsen -- Michael Knudsen micknudsen at gmail.com http://sites.google.com/site/micknudsen/

...at if I want to find the location of more than one number? I could do c(which(x==2),which(x==3)) but isn't there something more streamlined? My first guess was y=c(2,3) which(x==y) integer(0) which doesn't work. I haven't found any clue in the R manual. Thanks! -- Michael Knudsen micknudsen at gmail.com http://lifeofknudsen.blogspot.com/

Dear R community! I am trying to create a heatmap based on the following data. As you can see the diagonal (0,0 to 10,10) is always 0). If I run the heatmap command like i posted it I get a graph with horizontal lines. What is my mistake? > heatmap(activity.matrix, Rowv = NA, Colv = NA, scale="column", xlab="x Compounds", ylab="y Compounds",

Hi, excuse me for my english, i am using R on windows and i have to do several graphs with axis labels and the axis text thicks has a specified font type, (Arial) and a specified font size. How can i do these?

I am stumped. I have a data set with multiple columns and about 65,000 case. Some of the cases have a "#NULL!" value so for dataframe "Props_": access_emp pct_vacant TAVAIL park PARKACRES totlandare 4538 52.15 #NULL! 0 1 22.99 74,129.70400 4539 52.15 .09 0 1 22.99 982,850.80400 10292 54.20

...foreach I see no other way than to come up with a substitute for c in the .combine option. I have checked out the big.matrix manual, but I can't find a function suitable for just that. Actually, I wouldn't even know how to do it for a usual matrix. Any clues? Thanks! -- Michael Knudsen micknudsen at gmail.com http://lifeofknudsen.blogspot.com/

Hi, I would like to use a random Forest model to get an idea about which variables from a dataset may have some prognostic significance in a smallish study. The default for the number of trees seems to be 500. I tried changing the default to ntree=2000 or ntree=200 and the results appear identical. Have changed mtry from mtry=5 to mtry=6 successfully. Have seen same problem on both a Windows

Readers, Previous questions about this requirement have been for m$ users, my failure occurs using linux.

Hello, Please forgive me that this question is so basic, but i have not been able to find a solution in any of the basic R introductions, in the R wiki, or in the stats textbook i'm using to learn R. I run R on a macintosh, and i have not been able to load any data files yet. For instance, if I have a data table in a file called schools.txt on my desktop, i've been trying to load the

Hi, I am looking for ways to donwsample one-dimensional vectors. For example, x=sample(1:5, 115, replace=TRUE) How do I downsample this vector to 100 entries? Are there any R functions or packages that provide such functionality. I did find the zoo package and the aggregate() function, but these appear to be rather specific for time-series. Thanks in advance, Jan

Hello,   What function can I use for matrices addition? I couldn’t find any information about it in the manual or in the internet. (A+B suits, when the number of matrixes is small, function sum() doesn’t suit for matrices addition, because it sums all variables in the matrices and produces as an answer single number, not a matrix).   Best regards, Lina [[alternative HTML version

Hi, It might be a primitive question but how it is possible to determine if a variable is initialized in an environment? Suppose that we start a R session and wants to run a script which use the variable i. Which function could evaluate if i is already initialized or not and if not, then ask interactively the user to set it? This is to avoid the error message: object i is not found. Regards,

I am looking for information on experimentation with the use of R in the teaching of statistics and science in schools. Any leads would be very welcome.
