similar to: Adding margin text to lattice graphics

R: 2.12.1 OS X Colleagues I am working with lattice graphics for the first time and I am confused by some aspects of controlling these graphics. The most pressing issue is the following: I can print the graphics without problems with the command: print(MYFUNCTION(SOMEOBJECT) However, I would like to add margin text (this terminology might not apply in this setting). I am able to do so with

R 2.12.2 Windows 7 Colleagues, I just took advantage of the function: readWindowsShortcut in R.utils. It accomplished my goals and I was interested in learning its inner workings. So, I typed the function at the command line (without arguments or parentheses). R returned: function (...) UseMethod("readWindowsShortcut") <environment: namespace:R.utils> providing no

Colleagues R: 2.12.2 OS X I have a set of text objects in the form (I am showing 3 of what is more likely to be 20 or so): OBJECTS <- c("abcSOMETHINGCOMMONegf", "xSOMETHINGCOMMONyz", "SOMETHINGCOMMONnme") As you can see, all contain "SOMETHINGCOMMON" and the position varies. But, I don't know what that "SOMETHINGCOMMON" is. Is there an

Colleagues R 2.10.1 on a Mac I read in textfiles using readLines, then I process those files, then I use R to execute another program. Occasionally those files contain characters other than letter / numbers / routine punctuation marks. For example, a bullet (option-8 on a Mac) triggers the problem. Although R can read and process those characters, the other program cannot so I would like to

Colleagues, I am using R (2.9.2, all platforms) to search for a complicated text string using regular expressions. I would appreciate any help you can provide. The string consists of the following elements: SOMEWORDWITHNOSPACES any number of spaces and/or tabs ( any number of spaces and/or tabs integer any number of spaces and/or tabs ) Examples include: WORD ( 123 ) WORD(1 )

Colleagues Assume that I have a vector containing some text strings, some of which contain a particular character. I could like to apply "toupper" to the text before the character. For example (in this case, "|" is the particular character): ORIGINAL: TEXT <- c("aaaa", "bbb|cc", "|ddd") AFTER APPLICATION OF toupper: TEXT <-

R 4.2.2 OS X Colleagues A file that I have read includes strings like this: "EVENT ? 30 sec" When I include the string in a graphic using: mtext(STRING, ?) it appears as: "EVENT ... 30 sec" Is there a simple work-around (short of reformatting all the strings, then using plotmath)?

R 4.0.2 OS X Colleagues I have the unfortunate need to create a large number of tables (destined for a Word document). I need to color cells depending on the contents, e.g., blue if the value is < 0.5, red if the value is > 1.5. If the output went initially to Excel, that would work; outputting directly to Word would be even better. I expect that several packages can accomplish this. I

Luke Thanks ? I revised the code to: ERRORMESSAGE <- try(source(USERSCRIPTFILE, local=T), silent=T) print(ERRORMESSAGE) now returns: $value [1] 0 $visible [1] FALSE Not clear what to make of that.

R 4.2.3 OS X Colleagues, I am printing a large number of tables using the print command. A simple example is: print(data.frame(COL1=1:5, COL2=10:6)) The result in this case is: COL1 COL2 1 1 10 2 2 9 3 3 8 4 4 7 5 5 6 I would like to print the table WITHOUT the row numbers: COL1 COL2 1 10 2 9 3 8 4 7 5 6 Is there any simple

Colleagues, I have created a list in the following manner: TEST <- list(c("A1", "A2"), c("B1", "B2"), c("C1", "C2")) I now want to delete one element from the list, e.g., the third. The command TEST[[3]] yields (as expected): [1] "C1" "C2" The command TEST[[-3]] yields: Error:

Colleagues, R 2.9.0 on all platforms I have a dataset that contains three columns of interest: ID's, serial elapsed times, and a marker. Representative data: Subject Time Marker 1 100.5 0 1 101 0 1 102 1 1 103 0 1 105 0 For each subject, I would like to find the time associated with MARKER == 1, then replace Time with Time - (Time[Marker == 1]) The result for this

Colleagues, Hopefully a simple problem: I want to delete a column with a known name from a dataframe. I could write: FRAME <- FRAME[, names(FRAME) != NAMETODELETE] or FRAME <- FRAME[, !names(FRAME) %in% c(NAME1, NAME2, ETC)] Is there some simpler means to accomplish this?

Colleagues, I have some text: TEXT <- c("a", "bb;ccc", "dddd;eeeee;ffffff") I want to retrieve the portion of each element before the first semicolon. I can split each element using strsplit: SPLIT <- strsplit(TEXT, ";") This yields: > SPLIT [[1]] [1] "a" [[2]] [1] "bb" "ccc" [[3]] [1] "dddd"

Colleagues, I want to create the following array: "A1", "A2", "A3", "B1", "B2", "B3", "C1", "C2", "C3" I recall that there is a trick using "c" or "paste" permitting me to form all combinations of c("A", "B", "C") and 1:3. But, I can't recall the

Colleagues, What is the easiest means to embed a: ? (registered) or ? (trademark) sign in text in a graphic. I would like to use mtext and avoid plotmath, if possible. Ideally, the sign should be superscripted but I can easily sacrifice that. Optimally, I need a solution that works in both OS X and Windows (? XP) and with R versions ? 2.11 Thanks in advance.

Will this need to be done many times? If not, it might be just as easy to apply conditional formatting to cells after they're already in Excel.

R 3.4.2 OS X Colleagues I would appreciate some help with regular expressions. I have string that looks like: " ITERATION ,THETA1 ,THETA2 ,THETA3 ,THETA4 ,THETA5 ,THETA6 ,THETA7 ,SIGMA(1,1) ,SIGMA(2,1) ,SIGMA(2,2)? In the entries that

OS X R 4.3.1 Colleagues I often create multipage PDFs [pdf()] in which the text "Page X" appears in the margin. These PDFs are created automatically using a massive R script. One of my clients requested that I change this to: Page X of XX where XX is the total number of pages. I don't know the number of expected pages so I can't think of any clever way to do this. I
