similar to: Zoom in in a plot

I have a need to find the order of number to get a scaling parameter as a power of 10. I have a function that works *so far*, but it is ugly and probably buggy. In the interest of avoiding code-based outliers in my data, I thought I would ask if anyone here has a better way. > scl <- function(x){ + length(charToRaw(format(trunc(x), scientific = F)))-1} > a <- 123456789 > b <-

Hello, I am using the function simple.violinplot from the package UsingR. I have some outliers in my dataset so that the distribution has very long tails. As a result, the y-axis of the output of simple.violinplot extends to very large values. I would like to zoom on the y-axis with a command such as ylim=c(a,b), as in boxplot(x,ylim=c(a,b)). However, doing simple.violinplot(x,ylim=c(a,b)) does

All - When I plot something like a<-rnorm(5) b<-rnorm(5) plot(a,b,col = "red") points(10,-10) The last point is missing because it is out of range of the first plot. I just try to switch from Matlab to R. In Matlab, it always can automatic adjust the xlim and ylim for such case. Is it possible auto adjust in R? Otherwise keep tracking xlim and ylim is really annoying.

I was trying to use memory.size() to determine whether a code loop I am executing created a memory leak, since one replicate of the simulation takes 670.98 seconds according to proc.time(), while 5 replicates takes 170762 seconds. So I set it up as: memA <- memory.size() looping code... memB <- memory.size() memA returns as 9.3, and memB returns 11.3. I'm not familiar with

I was wondering if there is a way to get read in a single keystroke at a time in R as a string, akin to ncurses-style interfaces. I looked into readLines, readChar, etc. using stdin, but these all require the use of an end of line. Has anyone ever had need to do this or have any ideas on how to do this? Thanks, Jon PS I apologize if this double-sends, but I am having mail client issues.

Dear all, I am a newbie in R and could not find help on this problem. I am trying to plot an histogram with probabilities in the y axis. This is the code I am using: #TLC uniform n=30 mi=1; mx=6 nrep=1000 xbar=rep(0,nrep) for (i in 1:nrep) {xbar[i]=mean(runif(n,min=mi,max=mx))} hist(xbar,prob=TRUE,breaks="Sturges",xlim=c(1,6),main=paste("n =",n), xlab="Média",

Hi, I have a really large graph and would like to zoom in on portions of the graph and post them as blocks below the graph.Is there an add on package to do this? -- Rajesh.J ------------------------------------------------------------ "I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been." - Wayne Gretzky -------------------------------------------------------------

Hello R users, Is it possible after making a plot(x,y) to change axis scale? For example : I have a range of 0 to 3000 in my y-axis and I want to make a zoom between 2000 and 3000.

Dear Masters, I'm driving crazy with the lowess() function.... my intent is smoothing confidence intervals for predicted y values in a linear model lm() setting since in the predict() function there exists an option for predicting NA values, I instead encounter problems when I fit a missing values x variable to the predicted terms.....,impossible task!!! I've been banging on my head

Is it possible to send data from an executing R script, to external R script files, on linux in this case, get that external R script to execute, and pass results back to the central script? If so what commands should I be looking at? I've googled for R and external, stuff like that but no luck. The reason for the question is that I need to generate simulation data, then perform several

Hi I am new to R and am trying to set up a two-dimensional array/matrix with the elements defined by the function similar to below. Been trying to use outer with apply but can't seem to get the indexing quite right. Is their a simple way of accomplishing this task ?? ----- / | 1 x < 0.5 & y < 0.5 |

Hi Everyone, Can anyone help me resolve a problem that i'm having with nlminb. The problem is that it stops after just one iteration and returns the same values as "start" ones.

The guide of R Code style recommends to write script with a maximal length of 80 characters? how to break a line longer than 80 characters like filename_name <- ("/blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa/"/ blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa/data.csv") I did not find any answer while googling. Thank you!

Dear colleagues, I am trying to get someone to use R on MS Windows with the browser disabled. My question is how does he/she get to use R-help which goes off the browser (and correspondingly complains about the inability to start firefox, etc). In linux, which is what I use, this is not a problem: what needs to be set in Windows to replicate this behavior? Sorry if I am not clear: please feel

R folks, I am trying to create a mhtplot plot that will alter the point size via the plot point value. The size of the point should change via a set criteria such as: if point value <10^-6 size 3x else if 10^-3> point value >10^-6 size 2x else point value >10^-3 size is x I consider myself an R newbie, and I am assuming that I could do this via some sort of function to change

Which one is more efficient? x2=c() for (i in 1:length(x)) { x2=c(x2,func(x[i])) } or x2=x for (i in 1:length(x)) { x2=func(x[i]) } where func is any function?

HI, Dear R community, I try to create 100 dummy variables like the following: ack$id_1 <- (ack$ID==1)*1 ack$id_2 <- (ack$ID==2)*1 .. . ack$id_100 <- (ack$ID==100)*1 I used the following codes: for(i in 1:100){ ack$id_[i] <- (ack$ID==i)*1 } But only one column is created, can anyone help me?

Hello, Are there any packages which allow for a good integration between R and LaTex / LyX? I'm interested mainly in automatic (automagic?) imports of plots/graphics. Thanks in advance and best regards, Eduardo de Oliveira Horta [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
