Replacing dates with consecutive observations
I am working with a list of dates and I would like to replace each date with the one that comes after, ie. 1/1/07 will become 1/5/07, 1/5/07 will become 1/7/07, etc. The number of days between my dates always varies, so I can't just increase each one by 5 days or so. Does anyone know of a way I can do this in R? thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

looking for matches
My question is probably pretty basic, but since I'm really new to R, here it goes .... I have two separate data frames that include class names and various other information on classes. I'm trying to create a match based on class names and if a match exists to create a third data frame with the class name. I was hoping to accomplish this with sapply, but I can't figure out if I can

Only one strip with italic font.
Hi R users: How can I obtain an italic font only for one of the two strips in a xyplot? library(lattice) t<-rep(seq(0,10,5),4) logCFU<-c(2,2.5,3,4,4.5,1.5,2,2.5,3,3.4,2,2.5) microorg<-factor(rep(c("E. coli","L. monocytogenes"),each=6)) tratam<-factor(rep(c("t1","t2"),6)) xyplot(logCFU~t|microorg+tratam,type="p",

colored maps again
I'm trying to create a colored map that would show the number of students per state. My data frame consists of two columns - state and count. I'm using the following code library(maps) map("usa") library(plotrix) state.col<-color.scale(gre$count,0,0,c(0,1)) map("state",fill=TRUE,col=state.col) I'm getting a map, but the values are not being mapped to correct

creating a map
I'm trying to create a fairly basic map using R. What i want to get is the map of the country with circles representing a count of students in each state. What I've done so far is as following - map("state") symbols(data1$count,circles=log(data1$count)*3,fg=col,bg=col,add=T,inches=F) this gives me the map of the country, but one that's not populated by my counts.

Using apply for two datasets
I can run one-sample t-test on an array, for example a matrix myData1, with the following apply(myData1, 2, t.test) Is there a similar fashion using apply() or something else to run 2-sample t-test with datasets from two groups, myData1 and myData2, without looping? TIA, Gang

dissimilarity matrices
Dear All, I have a dissimilarity matrix which I happily convert to a distance object by running: X <- as.dist(Y) and I can happily now run either hclust(X) or agnes(X). So that the various bits of output are labelled correctly I would dearly like to be able to give names to the columns and rows of X, as would happen if I ran: mydata<-read.table("clipboard",header=T)

speed up process
Dear users, I have a double for loop that does exactly what I want, but is quite slow. It is not so much with this simplified example, but IRL it is slow. Can anyone help me improve it?

Here is the code (I tried to simplify it but I cannot do it too much or else it

How can I import user-defined missings from Spss?
Hi, It works for me to import spss datasets via library(foreign) with read.spss or via library Hmisc by (spss.get). But no matter which way I do import the data, user-defined missings from Spss are always lost. (it makes no difference if there are a single value, a range, or any combination of them. They are always ignored). Is there any way in R to find out if any value was user-defined missing

ggplot2 legend text....a basic question
Hello fellow R's, I?ve been learning to use the ggplot2 library, and after a full day of work I still have a couple of basic questions.
