similar to: adjusting grid on Xaxis ticks

If I create an aggregation like this: aggregate(lastYear[,8:10],list(Stadium=lastYear$STAD),mean) I'll get a new data frame, which I can order if I assign it like this: newFrame <- aggregate(lastYear[,8:10],list(Stadium=lastYear$STAD),mean) newFrame[order(newFrame$TEMP),] But.. if I just want to do this in one statement, what can I do? If this was perl, I'd be using something like

This is my code i don't understand the error message: library(rgenoud) rm(list=ls()) set.seed(666) ######################################################### # As a first step, it is assumed that all input parameters are independent of ageing : ######################################################### InputDim <-20 # Max number of ageings in the inputs CPIRate <- rep(0.02 , InputDim ) #

Hi R list, I like the default ticks that are set up using grid.xaxis() or grid.yaxis() with no arguments. Finding good values for the 'at' argument is usually not a trivial task; the default behavior of these functions seems to work well. The problem with this strategy is that I cannot figure out how to "recover" the positions of these ticks when you do NOT specify the

>library(ggplot2) >(p<- qplot(mpg, wt, data=mtcars)) What I am doing is to set color of the ticks to hide them. >grid.gedit(gPath("xaxis", "ticks"), gp=gpar(col="white")) It should be a better way to achieve the purpose. Thanks.

Dear list, Can someone explain why the childNames below gives character(0) instead of the (canonical) names of the children grobs of the xaxis gTree ? [1] "major" "ticks" "labels" Many thanks in advance, Tobias ### minimal example code ### library(grid) pushViewport(plotViewport(c(5,4,4,2))) pushViewport(dataViewport(1:5, 1:5)) grid.points(1:5, 1:5)

Hi, I try to create a vertical line in my plot, which has a xaxis comprising time formated data. This is what I tried: ---------------- y<-152833 x<-strptime(y, format="%H%M%S") abline(v=x, col="red") ---------------- for some reason, it doesn't work and no error msg is displayed... I hope someone can tell me what I do wrong, or maybe an alternative. Thanks

Hello there, I would like to plot a graph with the x axis's label displayed at a 45 angle to the x axis instead of horizontal to it as the label is very long. What should I do? Thank you for your help in advance Lisa Wang Princess Margaret Hospital Toronto, Ca

Hello, I'm making a simple plot using xYplot in the Hmisc library and having problems with labeling the values on the x-axis. Using the reproducible example below, how can I have the text (jan, feb,mar, etc.) in place of 1:12. Thanks, AB x <- c(seq(0,0.5,by=0.1),seq(0.5,0,by=-0.1)) ci <- rnorm(12,0,sd=0.1) xupper <- x + ci xlower <- x - ci mo.fac <- c("jan",

Hello, I at first thought this was a system or locale issue, but since it occurs on both Windows and Linux and only for 2004 (AFAIK) I report it. I have a problem with as.POSIXct for the hour between "2004-10-03 02:00:00 GMT" and "2004-10-03 02:59:59 GMT". In short, the 2 AM (GMT) hour in 2004 (but not in other years) is interpreted as 1 AM by strptime: (I use ISOdatetime

Hi ... I wonder if anyone can provide some insight into why the first three examples using the sunriset function (appended below, with results) give the correct answer, but the fourth generates and error. The first two use ISOdatetime with and without a time zone attribute, and the sunriset function returns the correct sunset time. The third and fourth adds 10 seconds to the ISOdatetime

#QUESTION# Is there a way to calculate the offset between timezones, e.g. from "AST" to "GMT"? #DETAILS# I am working with data files that use local time, and that indicate the timezone by e.g. "AST" (Atlantic Standard Time, my local time) in a header.

Dear R users, I have a quick question regarding creating an index for a zoo object. I am using R 2.12 on winxp. I have read through the R archives searching for information on dates and time series analysis and nothing seems to cover my question. I am extracting data from a time series of remote sensing data. The frequency of the data is 16 days which means I cant use ts (ts likes months single

Dear list, I need to transform the DateTime of my GPS data from: "666.1751" into "yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss" I have the following code: d$Date <- ISOdatetime(2009, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, tz = "GMT")+d$Date*(24*3600) This gives me: 2010-10-29 04:12:09, which is wrong. It should be 2010-10-29 06:12:09 Another example: 418.3219 corresponds to: 2010-02-23 07:43:30, but it

Dear all, I am using the ISOdatetime function like this: test.info$TradeTime = with(test.info, mapply(FUN = ISOdatetime, Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute, 60, "EST")) Where Year, Month etc are all numeric. I think ISOdatetime should return a POSIXct object. However, the result I obtained from the line above is all numeric. Could you please advise? I wish to get POSIXct. Thank you

I am trying to do ephemeris calculations in R, which involves calculating an elapsed time. As illustrated below, difftime seems to have problems with my method, since the fractional day is sometimes the correct 0.5 and sometimes the incorrect 0.46. I am doing this on with R-2.6.1 on a powerpc-apple-darwin8.10.1 system. I get the same results for as.POSIXlt() instead of as.POSIXct(), but the

Hi All, I am watching a strange behaviour of ISOdatetime. In my work computer, I get NA when I try to do > ISOdatetime(1995,03,26,2,0,0) [1] NA But on other dates and/or times (hour) works OK > ISOdatetime(1995,03,25,2,0,0) [1] "1995-03-25 02:00:00 GMT" In my home computer, I do not have this problem. I am running the same version of R (2.8.1 patched) on both machines, the

Hi all, I am using ISOdatetime, and I just found out that when I do ISOdatetime(1995,03,26,2,10,0) (or any other value under minutes or seconds) I get NA This does not happen with the same time in other dates, nor with different hours in the same date. Any hint why this happens? Using R 2.8.1 under ESS/GnuEmacs under Windows XP Pedro -- View this message in context:

The following three calls all produce the same result (my machine is in EST): > as.POSIXct(0, tz="", origin=ISOdatetime(1970,1,1,10,0,0)) [1] "1970-01-01 10:00:00 EST" > as.POSIXct(0, tz="EST", origin=ISOdatetime(1970,1,1,10,0,0)) [1] "1970-01-01 10:00:00 EST" > as.POSIXct(0, tz="GMT", origin=ISOdatetime(1970,1,1,10,0,0)) [1]

I think the following examples illustrate the crux of the matter (version and OS info are below). The problem has to do with the transition from standard time to daylight savings time. My timezone, US/Pacific, has two parts: standard time (PST) 8 hours behind GMT and daylight savings time (PDT) 7 hours behind GMT. The transition takes place this year on 7 April at 02:00, when 02:00 is

Hi R users, I am using xlsReadWrite to read a particular excel file. In one of the columns I have dates ( say col=5). Now date column is read by default as numeric. So I used dateTimeAs= "isodatetime". This enables reading in the date format. However in the earlier column (say col=1) I have data which however starts from row 10. So to read data from column one I use
