I have a data frame. And I'd like to subset according to rownames. subset(mydataframe, rownames(mydataframe) == myrow, select = mycols) it turned out that "myrow" cannot be a vector. But I have multiple rows to pick. Is there a way to get around this problem?? Thank you for your help!! Lei Jiang Department of Chemsitry University of Washington Box 351700 Seattle, WA 98195

I would like to remove columns of a df which have too many NAs. I think that summary() should give me the information, I just don't know how to access it.

I was wondering if there is a way of editting strings in R. I have a set of strings and each set is a row of numbers and paranthesis. For example the first row is: (0 2)(3 4)(7 9)(5 9)(1 5) and I have a thousand or so such rows. I was wondering how I could get the corresponding string obtained by adding 1 to all the numbers in the string above. Dursun [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-ers, I have a list of data frames such that the length of the list is unknown in advance (it could be 1 or 2 or more). Each element of the list contains a data frame. I need to loop through all rows of the list element 1 AND (if applicable) of the list element 2 etc. and do something at each iteration. I am trying to figure out how to write a code that is generic, i.e., loops through the

Given this data frame (a simplified, essential reproducible example) A<-c(8,7,10,1,5) A_flag<-c(10,0,1,0,2) B<-c(5,6,2,1,0) B_flag<-c(12,9,0,5,0) mydf<-data.frame(A, A_flag, B, B_flag) # this is my initial df mydf I want to get to this final situation i<-which(mydf$A_flag==0) mydf$A[i]<-NA ii<-which(mydf$B_flag==0) mydf$B[ii]<-NA

Hi all, Can anyone explain why the following use of the subset() function produces a different outcome than the use of the "[" extractor? The subset() function as used in density(subset(mydf, ht >= 150.0 & wt <= 150.0, select = c(age))) appears to me from documentation to be equivalent to density(mydf[mydf$ht >= 150.0 & mydf$wt <= 150.0, "age"])

Hello! I have a data frame with dates. I need to create a new "month" that starts on the 20th of each month - because I'll need to aggregate my data later by that "shifted" month. I wrote the code below and it works. However, I was wondering if there is some ready-made function in some package - that makes it easier/more elegant? Thanks a lot! # Example data:

Dear all, given I have data in a data.frame which indicate the number of people in a specific year at a specific age: n <- 10 mydf <- data.frame(yr=sample(1:10, size=n, replace=FALSE), age=sample(1:12, size=n, replace=FALSE), no=sample(1:10, size=n, replace=FALSE)) Now I would like to make a matrix with (in this simple example) 10 columns (for the

Dear all, I wanted to make a two-way-table of two variables with a counting variable stored in another column of a dataframe. In version 1.9.1, the behavior is as expected as shown in the simplified example code. > sex <- rep(c("F", "M"), 5) > income <- c(rep("low", 5), rep("high", 5)) > count <- 1:10 > mydf <-

Hi All, I've been successfully using the with function for analyses and the transform function for multiple transformations. Then I thought, why not use "with" for both? I ran into problems & couldn't figure them out from help files or books. So I created a simplified version of what I'm doing: rm( list=ls() ) x1<-c(1,3,3) x2<-c(3,2,1) x3<-c(2,5,2)

I dont get it: > is.vector(c(mydf[1])) [1] TRUE > unique(c(mydf[1])) Error in unique(c(mydf[1])) : unique() applies only to vectors > Is it a vector or not? This stuff is driving me nuts. I'm simply trying to convince R that my grouping vector is actually a vector so that unique will work. Its just a vector of numbers, so why shouldnt it work? --

#I want to "merge" or "join" 2 dataframes (df1 & df2) into a 3rd (mydf). I want the 3rd dataframe to contain 1 row for each row in df1 & df2, and all the columns in both df1 & df2. The solution should "work" even if the 2 dataframes are identical, and even if the 2 dataframes do not have the same column names. The rbind.fill function seems to work. For

...well, I don't think this is exactly the expected result (see my post) to be noted that the columns affected should be "A" and "B" thanks for the help max ----- Messaggio originale ----- Da: "Rui Barradas" <ruipbarradas at sapo.pt> A: "Massimo Bressan" <massimo.bressan at arpa.veneto.it>, "r-help" <r-help at

Please see example code below. I have a vector ("mydata") of length 10. "mydata" can have various formats (e.g. numeric, text, POSIXct, etc) I use the matrix and data.frame functions to convert "mydata" to a dataframe ("mydf") of 2 columns and 5 rows. What is a "good" way to ensure that the format is retained when I create the

Hi All, I'm fiddling with an program to read a text file containing periods that SAS uses for missing values. I know that if I had the original SAS data set instead of a text file, R would handle this conversion for me. Data frames do not allow missing values in their indices but vectors do. Why is that? A search of the error message points out the problem and solution but not why they

I'm writing a function and keep getting the following error message. myfunc <- function(lst) { lst <- list(roots = c("car insurance", "auto insurance"), roots2 = c("insurance"), prefix = c("cheap", "budget"), prefix2 = c("low cost"), suffix = c("quote", "quotes"), suffix2 = c("rate",

Dear R experts, I am trying to arrange multiple plots, creating one graph for each size1 factor variable in my data frame, and each plot has the median price on the y-axis and the size2 on the x-axis grouped by clarity: library(ggplot2) df <- data.frame(price=matrix(sample(1:1000, 100, replace = TRUE), ncol = 1)) df$size1 = 1:nrow(df) df$size1 = cut(df$size1, breaks=11)

## Hello there, ## I have an issue where I need to use the value of column names to multiply with the individual values in a column and I have many columns to do this over. I have data like this where the column names are numbers: mydf <- data.frame(`2.72`=runif(20, 0, 125), `3.2`=runif(20, 50, 75), `3.78`=runif(20, 0, 100), yy=
