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

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) { //

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

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?

Hi, I'm playing around with the 'bigmemory' package, and I have finally managed to create some really big matrices. However, only now I realize that there may not be functions made for what I want to do with the matrices... I would like to perform a cluster analysis based on a big.matrix. Googling around I have found indications that a certain kmeans.big.matrix() function should

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

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, 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

Hi, I have two matricies a and x: a<-matrix(c(3,4,5,2,3,4,1,1,2), nrow=3, ncol=3) [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 3 2 1 [2,] 4 3 1 [3,] 5 4 2 x<-matrix(c(3, NA, NA, NA, 2, 5, NA, 2, 2), nrow=3, ncol=3) [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 3 NA NA [2,] NA 2 2 [3,] NA 5 2 I wish to combine these two into one matrix using the values from x where x has values, and

Does anyone know of research on the effects of rounding on regression? e.g., when you ask people "How often have you _______?" you are more likely to get answers like 100, 200, etc. than 98, 203, etc. I'm interested in investigating this, but don't want to reinvent the wheel. thanks Peter Peter L.

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. I am certain that there is such experimentation. I've made this inquiry on r-sig-teaching, with no response. John.

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
