Dear all What is the easy way to drop a variable by using its name (and not its number)? Example: > data(iris) > head(iris) Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa 3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa 4 4.6 3.1

Hi, [I sent this to the plyr mailing list (late) last night, but it seems to be lost in the moderation queue, so here's a shot to the broadeR community] Apologies in advance for being more verbose than necessary, but I'm not even sure how to ask this question in the context of plyr, so ... here goes. As meaningless as this might be to do with the `iris` data, the spirit of it is what

Greetings R experts, I'm having some difficulty recovering lda objects that I've saved within sublists using the save.image() function. I am running a script that exports a variety of different information as a list, included within that list is an lda object. I then take that list and create a list of that with all the different replications I've run. Unfortunately I've been

I've just tried to merge 2 data sets thinking they would only keep the common columns, but noticed the column count was not adding up. I've then replicated a simple example and got the same thing happening. q1. why doesn't 'b' have a column name? q2. when I merge, why does the new column 'y' have all values as 5.1? Thanks in advance, Mr. confused > a <-

Hi there: I have a question about generating mean value of a data.frame. Take iris data for example, if I have a data.frame looking like the following: --------------------- Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2

Dear R-help, First I apologize if my question is quite simple. I need add some of data in the first place my dataset, how can I do that. I have tried with rbind, but I did not succes. 0.1 3.6 0.4 0.9 rose 4.1 4.0 1.2 1.2 rose 4.4 3.2 1.9 0.5 rose 4.6 1.1 1.1 0.2 rose For example,

Dear all, How can I obtain the union of a list of logical values? Consider the following: x <- head(iris) x[,c(2,4)] <- NA x[c(2,4),] <- NA # > x # Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species # 1 5.1 NA 1.4 NA setosa # 2 NA NA NA NA <NA> # 3 4.7 NA 1.3

Dear all, How should I add several variables to a data frame without losing the attributes of the df? Consider the following: > require(Hmisc) > Xa <- iris > label(Xa, self=T) <- "Some df label" > str(Xa) 'data.frame': 150 obs. of 5 variables: $ Sepal.Length: num 5.1 4.9 4.7 4.6 5 5.4 4.6 5 4.4 4.9 ... $ Sepal.Width : num 3.5 3 3.2 3.1 3.6 3.9 3.4 3.4 2.9

Dear R developers Would you consider adding a 'data.frame' method for the base::rep function? The need to replicate a df row-wise can easily arise while programming, and rep() is unable to handle such a case. See below. > x <- iris[1, ] > x Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa > rep(x, 2)

Dear Sir/Madam, I am trying to do PCA analysis with "iris" dataset and trying to interpret the result. Dataset contains 150 obs of 5 variables Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to get the rowindices without using the function "which" because I don't have a restriction criteria. Here's an example of what I mean: # take 10 randomly selected instances iris[sample(1:nrow(iris), 10),] # output Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 76 6.6 3.0 4.4 1.4

Hopefully I will not be flamed for this on the list, but I am starting out with R and having some trouble with combining plots. I am playing with the famous iris dataset (checking out example dataset in R while reading through Introduction to datamining) What I would like to do is create three graphs (combined boxplots) besides each other for each of the three species (Setosa, Versicolour and

I require some help in debugging this code  library(neuralnet) ir<-read.table(file="iris_data.txt",header=TRUE,row.names=NULL) ir1 <- data.frame(ir[1:100,2:6]) ir2 <- data.frame(ifelse(ir1$Species=="setosa",1,ifelse(ir1$Species=="versicolor",0,""))) colnames(ir2)<-("Output") ir3 <- data.frame(rbind(ir1[1:4],ir2))

Dear all, I have a problem with the function read.xls from the gdata package, error message see below. Two examples: First, I try to read my data, which does not work; Secondly, I tried the example code/data with the Iris data, which worked Any idea?

Hey Duncan, Hard to debug? That's an understatement. Eyes bleeding.... In any case, I tried all your suggestions. To get "integer" for the final column, I had to change the code to get integers instead of strings. double[] d1 = ((REXPVector) ((RList) tableRead).get(0)).asDoubles(); double[] d2 = ((REXPVector) ((RList) tableRead).get(1)).asDoubles(); double[] d3 = ((REXPVector)

Thanks Duncan. I can't tell you how helpful all your terrific replies have been. I think the biggest surprise is that nobody appears to be using Java and R together like I"m trying to do. I suppose it should be a surprise since there are no books on the subject and almost no technical documentation other than a few sites here and there. ----- I originally had the "int" as the

Dear list, I'm quite confused when interpreting results from a mixed linear model. For example, working on Iris data frame, I want to know the effect of species on slope of the model "Petal.Length~Sepal.Length" I write this : data(iris) reg01 <- lm(Petal.Length~Sepal.Length + Sepal.Length:Species, data=iris) summary(reg01) It gives me a summary table with lm for the first

I try to perform a clustering using an existing dissimilarity matrix that I calculated using distance (analogue) I tried two different things. One of them worked and one not and I don`t understand why. Here the code: not working example library(cluster) library(analogue) iris2<-as.data.frame(iris) str(iris2) 'data.frame': 150 obs. of 5 variables: $ Sepal.Length: num 5.1 4.9 4.7

Dear all It is difficult to use round(..., digits=2) on a data frame since one has to first take care to remove non-numeric variables such as 'character' or 'factor': > head(round(iris, 2)) Error in Math.data.frame(list(Sepal.Length = c(5.1, 4.9, 4.7, 4.6, 5, : non-numeric variable in data frame: Species > head(round(iris[1:4], 2)) Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length
