Dear R users I have a list, as follows: > intvl.period.myrs $Devonian [1] 4.8 4.2 9.5 5.7 $Ordovician [1] 7.2 5.1 10.2 1.9 $Silurian [1] 4.7 3.0 7.8 2.0 3.3 1.6 2.6 2.7 I want to write a loop that will sum up the values in each part, and give me a vector containing the (in this case 3) summed values this is what I have so far: for (i in 1:length(names(intvl.periods.myrs)) {

Hi All, I am looking for help in rotating species titles produced using the strat.plot( ) function in the rioja package. This function produces a stratigraphic plot of paleoenvironmental data. Currently the titles of each species are plotted vertically while they are typically plotted at a 45 degree angle in other programs. Does anyone have any idea of how to rotates these titles? Below is an

Hello Everyone I have an R script (and a source file which I keep my functions) that I need to run on 70 data sets (each consisting of a pair of files). I wish to run these data sets in a computer cluster that is run by my uni (HOWEVER they cannot help me with this problem but say it is do-able) the cluster is clever enough that if i set my data up as follows: within one folder called

hi, I have a positive integer matrix like: test<-matrix(c(1,2,2,2,2,1,1,2,3),3) and based on the distant function I made like this: generateDistMat<-function (target) { n <- nrow(target) rn <- rownames(target) distM <- matrix(NA, n, n) diag(distM) <- 0 for (i in 1:(n - 1)) for (j in (i + 1):n) { distM[i, j] <- length(which(target[i, ] !=

Dear all, I have searched the forums for an answer - and there is plenty of questions along the same line - but none of the paproaches shown worked to my problem: I have a data frame that I get from a csv: summarystats<-as.data.frame(read.csv(file=f_summary)); where I have the columns Dataset, Class, Type, Category,.. Problem1: I want to find a subset of this frame, based on values in

Hello all, I have a *.csv file that looks like this (actual file is orders of magnitude larger): Site taxa no.ind forest LMA 1 forest LCY 1 forest SCO 1 meadow LMA 2 meadow LCY 1 meadow PNT

Hello, I've got a matrix consisting of one column with n rows. Each field in the matrix is filled with a character vector. I would like to convert this matrix into a character vector containing the B03_MAH-type entries from the beginning of each row and a data.frame that contains the numeric data, but I am stuck. I have tried to use textConnection with sep = " " but since

Hello I apologise for the length of this entry but please bear with me. In short: I need a way of subsampling communities from all possible communities of n taxa taken 1:n at a time without having to calculate all possible combinations (because this gives me a memory error - using combn() or expand.grid() at least). Does anyone know of a function? Or can you help me edit the combn or

If I have a contourplot (in the lattice package) and I want to add straight lines to it, how do I do this? I see that there are llines() and lsegement() functions for lattice plots, but they don't seem to do anything in this case: library(lattice) library(KernSmooth) x=rnorm(10000) y=x+rnorm(x,0,.5) a=bkde2D(cbind(x,y),.7) z=as.vector(a$fhat) grid=expand.grid(x=a$x1,y=a$x2) grid$z=z

Hello. Does anyone know of an existing function that takes a list in the form of: Plot1 Species1 Abundance1 Plot1 Species2 Abundance2 Plot2 Species1 Abundance1 Plot2 Species3 Abundance3 . . . PlotN SpeciesN AbundanceN and translates into a matrix in the form of Species1 Species2.... SpeciesN Plot1 Abundance1 Abundance2... AbundanceN Plot2 Abundance1

I am having difficulty getting the dynamic tree cut package to work. Given the data table "myddtable" LengthPlaceColorAge5HRed224ABlue205WGreen243GRed222GBlue236WGreen255ARed194H Blue23 I created a similarity matrix using DAISY and Gower metric and specified Place and Color columns as characters (since they are categorical variables) > dd.daisy<-daisy(myddtable, metric =

I've been comparing variables among objects (taxa) related by known trees, using phylogentically independent contrasts in the ape package, and want to move on to more complex models e.g. by using gls with appropriate correlation terms. My trees contain lots of (hard) polytomies and information about ancestors, which I've been including- creating fully dichotomous trees by using zero branch

Hello, How can I create a symmetric contingency table from two categorical vectors having different length of levels? For example one vector has 98 levels TotalData1$Taxa.1 [1] "Aconoidasida" "Actinobacteria (class)" "Actinopterygii" "Alphaproteobacteria" [5] "Amoebozoa"

Does anyone here have any "feel" for the "Battery disconnected" and "Battery reattached" log entries? The rebooting came as a result of me turning off modems, router, external drives, monitor, cordless phone and finally, the computer, trying to locate a quiet but annoying "chirp". The "chirps" stopped when I tilted the UPS to look at the front

Hi, I would like to place a line (tilted at an angle) in the margin of an R plot. Is there any way to place such an annotation outside the plotting area? As an alternative, being able to plot a rotated character (the pipe, |) in the margin would be sufficient. The problem is that mtext doesn't work with the srt option. As a further alternative, if I could put a legend in the margin, I

Dear experts, Is there a way to change the angle in which the axes are labeled? I would like to draw a barplot where items are countries and, in order to fit the country?s names in, tilt these names about 45?. Is this possible? I cannot find any examples in the docs.
