Dear All, This question sounds very simple but I don't know where I am wrong. I just want to pad leading zeros in some string, for example, "123" becomes "00123". What is wrong if I do following? > sprintf("%05s", "123") [1] " 123" It didn't return "00123", instead it padded with 'blank'. Thank you for your help

Hi All, I have two Rs, one has been installed in Windows system and another one has been installed under UNIX system. Is there any environmental variable or function to tell me which R I am using? The reason that I need to know it is under different system, the data path could be different. I want to do something like if it is R under Windows path =

Hi all, I have a dataset. Each time I want to sample N(i) elements from it and I want to repeated sampling M times. N(i) is varied from time to time. For example, dataset = 1:50; a = list(); M = 1000; I want to do something like for(i in 1:M) { a[[i]] = sample(dataset,

Hi All, I have a data frame, whose colnames like "A.x, B.x, C.x, A.y, B.y, C.y". There could be many columns like this pattern. I want to compare data in columns A.x with A.y, B.x with B.y and C.x with C.y etc. Suppose my data frame is d, names(d) = c("A.x", "B.x", "C.x", "A.y", "B.y", "C.y"); If I want to D1 =

Hi All, I have a data frame like a = data.frame(date = c(20081201, 20081202, 20081201), product = c("a b c d e", "a b c g h t", "d e h a c e h g"), sales = c(1, 2, 3)) Now I want to aggregate the sales by part of the a$product. 'Product' is the product name, a string separated by a space. The key in my aggregate function is

Dear all, I have an R script that uses Rcpp, and I have been trying to parallelize it using mclapply (I tried with the multicore and the parallel library) Sometimes (not always, interestingly), the CPU use for each core drops, usually so that the total over all cores reaches 100%, i.e., as fast as if using just one single core fully. I tried my code directly from within emacs, and also using a

Hello r-help, I've been banging my head against the computer in an attempt to learn how to divide my matrix into segments by rows. I want to be able to return each segment as a newly named object. I've tried looking at the apply functions and creating a for loop but brain no work. Here's the basic starting objects that I believe would be needed to separate the matrix. mat <-

Dear R users, I am running simulations (1000), and in my simulation I am looking at specific sums. For example, if the sum is >=4 then count this, if say <3, then don't count, if the sum=3, then generate a random number from uniform distribution, if this number is say less than 0.5, then count this sum, if greater than 0.5, then don't count. I am having trouble with introducing this

Hi, I am trying to normalize some data. First I fitted a principal curve (using the LCPM package), but now I would like to apply a transformation so that the curve becomes a "straight diagonal line" on the plot. The data used to fit the curve would then be normalized by applying the same transformation to it. A simple solution could be to apply translations only (e.g., as done after a

Hello R, could you tell me please, how to fix this issue?

I have two regressions to perform - one with a metric DV (-3 to 3), the other with an ordered DV (0,1,2,3). Neither normal distribution not homoscedasticity is given. I have a two questions: (1) Some sources say robust regression take care of both lack of normal distribution and heteroscedasticity, while others say only of normal distribution. What is true? (2) Are there ways of using robust

Dear all, In a plot command like xyplot(Y~X|ID*PERIOD,data=...) xyplot will generate all the possible ID*PERIOD combinations. But not all of them have data in there. So I have a lot of empty plots. How can I suppress those empty plots and ask xyplot only to generate plots actually with data. Thanks. Jun [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
