Hi guys, here is a list of names that I have: MyList: > myList<-list("A", "B","C","D") > myList [[1]] [1] "A" [[2]] [1] "B" [[3]] [1] "C" [[4]] [1] "D" I want to turn this list into a matrix of 1 row and 4 columns with those four components (A, B, C, D) so here is what I do: myDataFrame <-

Transpose vector extracted from a matrix Hello, I am doing a recursive analysis that uses every line (vector) of a matrix in a loop. In the model, I need to transpose those vectors that are extracted from a matrix. Using simple vectors (no matrix involved) the transpose function works fine: simplevector <-matrix(1:3,3,1) tsimplevector <-t(simplevector) #transposed dim(simplevector)

Hi guys, here is a simple thing I want to do but it doesn't work: I have a vector of the element indexes that I want to delete called index so when I write myList[[index]] <- NULL to delete these elements here is what I get: Error in myList[[index]] <- NULL : more elements supplied than there are to replace Isn't it possible to delete multiple elements? ----- Anna Lippel --

Hello everyone, I use the split function splitting with the f function on a 3 columns and more than 100 000 rows data frame. Once it's split I have a list of data frames still with 3 columns and n rows. I manipulate those list elements and get a list of data frames still with 3 columns but less rows. So when I unsplit it, I get an error as I use the same factor function I used to split ( f in

Hello R lovers, I have a vector of dates and signals. I want to filter the signals per day in a way that only the first signal of the day remains like this: Dates Signals Filtered Signal 2006-11-02 0 0 2006-11-02 1 1 2006-11-02 0 0 2006-11-02 1 0 2006-11-02 1

Hello, I have a matrix mat1 of dim [1,8] and mat2 of dim[30,8], I want to replace the first row of mat2 with mat1, this is what I do: mat2[1,]<-mat1 but it transforms mat2 in a list I don't understand, I want it to stay a matrix... ----- Anna Lippel -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Simple-question-on-replace-a-matrix-row-tp1427857p1427857.html Sent from the R help

Hello guys, I have a list L1 of matrix. I have another list L2 with the same number of elements representing the row of the L matrix that I want to delete (L1[[i]][-L2[[i]],]) but I can't do this with lapply as it iterates through L1 (first argument) and not L2. Any idea? ----- Anna Lippel -- View this message in context:

Hello, I have a date value in excel: 1/4/2010 which in number format gives me 40182. When I read this with read.xls from R I get same 40182 so what I do is that I use the as.Date() function but here is what the as.Date() function returns me: > as.Date(40182) [1] "2080-01-06" Why don't I get the same thing as in excel?

Hello, I am having trouble by using the write.table function to write a data frame of 4 columns and 7530 rows. I don?t know if I should just use a sep="\n" and change the .xls file into a .csv file.

Hello I tried to define replacement functions for the class "mylist". When I test them in an active R session, they work -- however, when I put them into a package, they don't. Why and how to fix? make_my_list <- function( x, y ) { return(structure(list(x, y, class="mylist"))) } mylist <- make_my_list(1:4, letters[3:7]) mylist mylist[['x']] <- 4:6

I can define a list containing NULL elements: > myList <- list("aaa",NULL,TRUE) > names(myList) <- c("first","second","third") > myList $first [1] "aaa" $second NULL $third [1] TRUE > length(myList) [1] 3 However, if I assign NULL to any of the list element then such element is deleted from the list: > myList$second <-

Hi, I'm pretty new to R. I have an object (say a list) and I I have a function that I call on various columns in that list (excuse terminology if it's wrong/ambiguous). Imagine its like this (actual values are unimportant) and called mylist: >mylist A B 1 5 2 5 3 6 4 8 5 0 I have a function: foo = function(param){ #modify list A or B values depending on

Hi, I'm have a list of integer vectors and I want to perform an outer() like operation on the list. As an example, take the following list: mylist <- list(1:5,3:9,8:12) A simple example of the kind of thing I want to do is to find the sum of the shared numbers between each vector to give a result like: result <- array(c(15,12,0,12,42,17,0,17,50), dim=c(3,3)) Two for() loops is the

Dear R users, Let's say I have a list with components being 'm' matrices (as exemplified in the "mylist" object below). Now, I'd like to subset this list based on an index vector, which will partition each matrix 'm' in 2 sub-matrices. My questions are: 1. Is there an elegant way to have the results shown in mylist2 for an arbitrary number of matrices in mylist?

Hi I have a list : mylist <- list( a = NULL, b = 1, c = 2 ) > mylist[1] $a NULL > is.null(mylist[1]) [1] FALSE > is.null(mylist$a) [1] TRUE why? I need to use mylist[1]

I have this awkward problem with trellis (lattice). I am trying to generate some plots through loops but the .eps file is empty. When I generate them in a list and print them outside the loop all is fine. this is an example below:( nothing shows up in foo.eps, but all show up in foo1.eps) R vesion 2.0.1, lattice version 0.10-16, on a debian 2.6.8-1 kernel. X <- data.frame(x=rnorm(10000),

How do I parse an identifier of a list component, e.g. mylist$mycomponent or mylist[[1]] ? Parse does not do the job, e.g. parse(text="mylist$mycomponent") returns an expression with just one term, instead of "mylist", "$", "mycomponent". What I need is a way to extract the list name (e.g. "mylist"), given an identifier of a component.

I've been doing some consulting with students who seem to come to R from SAS. They are usually pre-occupied with do loops and it is tough to persuade them to trust R lists rather than keeping 100s of named matrices floating around. Often it happens that there is a list with lots of matrices or data frames in it and we need to "stack those together". I thought it would be a simple

Dear List, Let's say I have a list whose components are 2 matrices (as exemplified in the "mylist" object below). I'd like to create a list with components being 4 matrices based on an logical index vector. is there a way to simplify what I'm doing to obtain the results in "mylist2"? I'd like something that would work on an arbitrary number of elements in
