Find multiple elements in a vector
Hi, Given a vector, say x=sample(0:9,10) x [1] 0 6 3 5 1 9 7 4 8 2 I can find the location of an element by which(x==2) [1] 10 but what 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

Nested for loops
Hi, I have spent some time locating a quite subtle (at least in my opinion) bug in my code. I want two nested for loops traversing the above-diagonal part of a square matrix. In pseudo code it would something like for i = 1 to 10 { for j = i+1 to 10 { // do something } } However, trying to do the same in R, my first try was for (i in 1:10) { for (j in (i+1):10) { //

heatmap plot
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",

randomForest question--problem with ntree
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

R on Multi Core
Hi, Our discussions about 64 bit R has led me to another thought. I have a nice dual core 3.0 chip inside my Linux Box (Running Fedora 11.) Is there a version of R that would take advantage of BOTH cores?? (Watching my system performance meter now is interesting, Running R will hold a single core at 100% perfectly, but the other core sites idle.) Thanks! -- Noah

Building a big.matrix using foreach
Hi there! I have become a big fan of the 'foreach' package allowing me to do a lot of stuff in parallel. For example, evaluating the function f on all elements in a vector x is easily accomplished: foreach(i=1:length(x),.combine=c) %dopar% f(x[i]) Here the .combine=c option tells foreach to combine output using the c()-function. That is, to return it as a vector. Today I discovered the

plot the same types of graphics on the same R graphic device
Hi, How to plot the same types of graphics on the same R graphic device? Suppose that we want to plot a vector y against x (using plot for instance). How is it possible to plot y against x for different values of these two vectors on the same device so that the plots could be compared? Cheers, Carol [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I might be dumb : a simple question about "foreach"
Hi list, My attention was drawn to the foreach package by recent posts...I decided to have a look... I'm using R.2.9.1 on Windows, I have downloaded the foreach package today (v 1.2.1), together with iterators (v. 1.0.1) and codetools (v.0.2-2). Full of hope I try the most simple thing of all out of the package vignette : > x <- foreach(i = 1:3) %do% sqrt(i) and get : > Erreur

Matrix addition function
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
