I am running R 2.9.2 and creating a PDF that I am trying to open with Adobe Reader 9.2 but when I try to open it the reader responds with "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and cannot be repaired.: I am using the R command(s): pdf(file="cat.pdf", title="Historical Sales By Category") for(j in 1:length(master)) { d <-

Hello, I am new to R and I would like to get the day of the year from numerous data in the following form: %a %d/%b/%Y %H:%M:%S (for example from Tu 10/Jul/2007 21:59:13 I would like to get 191) Whatever I try, I get NAs. Well... I need your help, please! Thanks in advance Yours sincerely, Solène Goy _________________________________________________________________ [[elided Hotmail spam]]

Apparently, as.POSIXlt takes one o'clock as the start of the day : > as.POSIXlt(0,origin="1970-01-01") [1] "1970-01-01 01:00:00 CET" > as.POSIXlt(0,origin="1970-01-01 00:00:00") [1] "1970-01-01 01:00:00 CET" > as.POSIXlt(0,origin="1970-01-01 23:59:59") [1] "1970-01-02 00:59:59 CET" Cheers -- Joris Meys Statistical

Given a Date object or simply a year is there an R function to tell me if the it is a leap year or not? I was hoping for something like 'is.leapyear'. I probably can build my own function (year divisible by 4 etc.) but I would rather use an existing function if it is available. Thank you. Kevin

Hi list, I'm trying to turn a date into something productive. (Not what you may be thinking....) I want three functions so I could take a "date" object and get the day of week, month, and year from it. xx <- as.Date("2006-01-05") month(xx) equal 1 day(xx) equal 5 year(xx) equal 2006 I'm aware of the weekdays() and months() functions in the base package. But

Hi all, this one left me a bit puzzled, as I don't seem to find a function to perform this easily. I must have overlooked the obvious, so sorry in advance. I have a list of dates in numerical format (i.e. 34576), defined as the number of days that passed since january 1st 1900. So I apply the function : > MyDate <-as.Date(34576,origin="1900-01-01") > MyDate [1]

i have a matrice M and i want to extract only rows where GWP_Max is positif and smaller than 1000 but it is given me this:!!!??? > M    Policy.Number   GWP_Max 1        4001023       500 2        4001025       700 3        4001028       600 4        4001062    2335.1 5        6100001      2000 6     1060000006      1400 7     1060000009     77.19 8     1060000071  18898.88 9     1060000073

Hi, I am having trouble extracting just the year or the month or the day from a date such as 5/7/2007 which is May 7th 2007. Is there any particular function to extract just the year from this format? When I am reading this data from a text file it is reading it correctly in the same format but does not acknowlede it as date but as a factor. If I try as.date(5/7/2007) then it is converting it to

Dear List, I have the following problem with axis.Date, here is an artificial example: dates <- scan(what = "character") "25/03/2000" "26/03/2000" "27/03/2000" "28/03/2000" "29/03/2000" "30/03/2000" "31/03/2000" "01/04/2000" "02/04/2000" "03/04/2000" "04/04/2000"

Full_Name: Gavin Simpson Version: 2.1.0-patched (1-Jun-2005) OS: Linux (Fedora Core 3) Submission from: (NULL) (128.40.32.76) axis.Date() insists on labelling tick marks. It could be made more flexible by allowing the user to specify if they want the ticks to be labelled, for example, to add un-labelled minor ticks for "months", added to a plot with "years" labelled.

Dear List, A student in the Department where I work would like to produce a graphic similar to this one: http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2009/09/16/Public_spending_160909.pdf Does anyone know if the figure in the pdf can be generated in a specific software application for example? Any suggestions would be most gratefully received by the student concerned. Many thanks,

Hello there, I'm trying to plot vectors with p<0.1 in a NMDS ordination plot using p.max. Below the scripts I'm using. I guess I'm missing something! could you please give me a hand? species<-metaMDS(species_matrix)ef<-envfit(species,environmentaldata_file,permu=999,na.rm=TRUE)efplot(species, dis="sites")plot(ef,p.max=0.1) Error in plot.envfit(ef, p.max = 0.1) :

Hi All, I have a small dataframe [dates, values) I am plotting with plot(df,type=²l²) And the date date covers a year. The graph only have marks at Œ2008¹ and Œ2009¹. How do I get the months labeled at the bottom please Thanks as always Glenn [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

This is mostly a RFC [but *not* about the many extra packages, please..]: Noticing to my chagrin how my students work in a project, googling for R code and cut'n'pasting stuff together, accumulating this and that package on the way all just for simple daily time series (though with partly missing parts), using chron, zoo, lubridate, ... all for things that are very easy in base R *IF*

Sorry to disturb you, but can you help me to solve one little problem? I want to draw a graphic after another with R but I cannot find the first one after that. Do you know the command to hold the graphic with R? I remember with Matlab you may use "hold on". Thanks. -- Baohua Yang Email:yangbaohua@gmail.com [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I had a question about the basic power functions in R. For example from the R console I enter: -1 ^ 2 [1] -1 but also -1^3 [1] -1 -0.1^2 [1] -0.01 Normally pow(-1, 2) return either -Infinity or NaN. Has R taken over the math functions? If so I would think that -1^2 is 1 not -1 and -0.1^2 is 0.01 not -0.01. Thank you. Kevin

Dear List, I need to add a subscript and a superscript to some of the ions in the labels on some plots. I have got to here but now I'm stuck: plot(1:10, xlab = expression(paste("nm SO"[4], " ", mu, "eq cm"^{-2}, " yr"^{-1}))) Which gives almost what I require. No matter what I tried, however, I could not get bot a sub script *and* a superscript
