deleting the first two characters in each row of a factorized column
Hello, I'd like to ask you something again. I have a database and it has a column which looks like this one here: small_factor <- factor(c("d_variable1","d_variable2","d_variable3")) small_factor Now the thing is that I would like to convert each element of this factorized column. Basically I want to rewrite the words in it without the first two characters:

Preserving lists in a function
Dear R users, A co-worker and I are writing a function to facilitate graph plotting in R. The function makes use of a lot of lists in its defaults. However, we discovered that R does not necessarily preserve the defaults if we were to input them in the form of list() when initializing the function. For example, if you feed the function codes below into R: myfunction=function( list1=list

Multiple tables
Dear list, I have a set of 100+ variables. I would like to have one by one crosstables for each variable. I started with table(variable1, variable2) table(variable1, variable3) table(variable1, variable4) ... table(variable2, variable3) table(variable2, variable4) ... It seems rather tedious. Any better ideas around? Thanks for any help! Gerit -- NUR NOCH BIS 31.01.! GMX FreeDSL -

bootstrap resampling question
Hello there, I have a problem concerning bootstrapping in R - especially focusing on the resampling part of it. I try to sum it up in a simplified way so that I would not confuse anybody. I have a small database consisting of 20 observations (basically numbers from 1 to 20, I mean: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... 18, 19, 20). I would like to resample this database many times for the bootstrap process with

changing the dimensions of a matrix in a real specific way
Hi again, I'd like to ask you a question again. I have a matrix like this: a <-matrix(c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12)) a [,1] [1,] 1 [2,] 2 [3,] 3 [4,] 4 [5,] 5 [6,] 6 [7,] 7 [8,] 8 [9,] 9 [10,] 10 [11,] 11 [12,] 12 Is there a proper way to change the dimensions of this matrix so that I'll get this as a result: [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,]

persuade tabulate function to count NAs in a data frame
Hi, I'd like to ask you a question again. It is basically about data frames, NAs and tabulate function. I have this data frame. I already used this in one of the previous questions of mine. It intentionally looks this simple, my real 'df' dataframe is much bigger actually and again, I am not willing to annoy anyone with huge databases... So, my database: id

clustering of binary data
Good morning, I am analyzing a dataset composed by 364 subjects and 13 binary variables (0,1 = absence,presence). I am testing possible association (co-presence) of my variables. To do this, I was trying with cluster analysis. My main interest is to check for the significance of the obtained clusters. First, I tried with the pvclust() function, by using method.hclust="ward" and

Correlation Matrix
Listers, I have a question regarding correlation matrices. It is fairly straight forward to build a correlation matrix of an entire data frame. I simply use the command cor(MyDataFrame). However, what I would like to do is construct a smaller correlation matrix using just three of the variable out of my data set. When I run this: cor(MyDataFrame$variable1,
