Hi, I have two data frames each with 5 columns and different number of rows. some of the row names in one data frame are the same as the row names in the other. I want to be able to merge the two data frames to get a new data frame in which the duplicated row names are only shown once with the data for the rest of the columns used from the first data frame. Essentially, I want to make a union

Hello All, I have a device that spews out experimental data as a series of text files each of which contains one column with several rows of numeric data. My problem is that for each trial it gives me one text file (and I run between 30 to 50 trials at a time) and I would ideally like to merge all these text files into one large data frame with each column representing a single trial. It is not

Hi all, I have a x, y matrix of numbers (usually ranging from 0 to 40). I need to group these numbers and assign a color to each group (for example 0 to 15 - Blue, 16-30- Yellow, and 31-40- Red). Then I need to draw a rectangular matrix which contains X x Y boxes and each box has the corresponding value from the input matrix and is also colored according to which group (i.e red, yellow,

Hi all, I have a matrix with each column containing a large number of integers (0 and above). in each column beyond a certain row (say row 120 in column 1, row 134 in column 2, 142 in column 3...) there are only 0's. I want to find, for each column the row number of the last row which contains a positive integer beyond which there are 10 or more 0's. so in the following example (single

Hi all, In response to a previous post about plotting a numeric square matrix as a colored matrix, I was referred to both image and the color2D.matplot function in the plotrix package. Both have worked for me thanks!! However I need to plot my data in a log transformed color scale. Is this possible? I will be happy to explain further, but basically I need to do this because there are large

Hi all, I created three separate square matrices (lets say R, G, and B). each one contains a series of values between 0 and 1. I want to be able to take for example R[1], G[1], B[1] and create a rgb color value into a fourth matrix. I tried using the rgb function but I must be doing something wrong because it fails with the following error message. (list) object cannot be coerced to
