I doubt your actual file looks like the mess that made it to my email software (below) because you posted HTML-format email. Read the Posting Guide, and in particular figure out how to send plain text email. You might try the "anytime" contributed package, though I suspect it too will choke on your mess. Otherwise, that will pretty much leave only a brute-force series of regular

Hi,? I have a data set with various date formats in one column and not sure how to unify it.Here is a few formats: 02091702/22/170221201703/17/160015-08-239/2/1500170806May-2-201522-March-2014 I tried parse_date_time from lubridate library but it failed.Thanks so much.?Best,Farnoosh [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Thanks Jeff. This is a nice way of solving this problem. What about the cases with 0015-02-21?Many thanks.?Best,Farnoosh On Wednesday, June 28, 2017 10:49 PM, Jeff Newmiller <jdnewmil at dcn.davis.ca.us> wrote: I doubt your actual file looks like the mess that made it to my email software (below) because you posted HTML-format email.

Hello R users, This is more of a convenience question that I hope others might find useful if there is a better answer. I work with large datasets that requires multiple parsing stages for different analysis. For example, compare group 3 vs. group 4. A more complicated comparison would be time B in group 3 of group L with B in group 4 of group L. I normally subset each group with the

Thanks. I think nabble is good for programming questions. Bear with me if I'm incorrect. Data: Genomics SNP information Goal: I need to add Chromosome and SNP position to the data frame I'm using through apply. I'd like to add new column from text processed through apply function. For example: 10:60523:T:G (Column 2) CHR: 10 Position: 60523 Dataset: chr rs ps n_miss allele1

Hello all, I have a .csv file like below. Tool,Step_Number,Data1,Data2... etc up to 100 columns. A,1,0,1 A,2,3,1 A,3,2,1 . . B,1,3,2 B,2,1,2 B,3,3,2 . . ...... so on upto 50 rows where the column "*Tool*" has distinct steps in second column "*Step_Number*",but both have same entries in Step_Number column. I want the output like below.

Hello, I have a classification tree. I want to obtain a ROC curve for this test. What is the easiest way to obtain one? -Anjali --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear All, I am experiencing some problems with a script of mine. It crashes with this message Error in grepl(fut_string, past_string) : invalid regular expression

A general question that I have been pursuing for some time but have set aside. When finishing some analysis, I can have multiple matrices that have specific column names. Ideally, I would like to combine these separate matrices for a final output as a csv file. A generic example: Matrix 1 var1A var1B var1C x x x x x

Hi R users, I am trying generate the indices for locating a in the string it come from. Given the length of the string, it will take too long using the combn() for further comparison. I am wondering if R has any built-in function for this purpose. To make it concrete: this.substring="cc" this.string="ccc" start.location=1,2 end.location=2,3 Thanks in advance, Kevin

Hello, I would like to run a correlation on values in a table that has 4 rows and 136 columns. However, I am only interested in correlating the values in alternating blocks of 15 columns. For example, I would like to correlate the values in row 1, columns 2-16:31-46:61-76:91-106 with values in row 2, columns 2-16:31-46:61-76:91-106. Is there a way to notate this in the cor command so that the

Hi, A noobie question: I'm simply trying to run a conditional statement that evaluates if a substring is found within a larger string. I find that if it IS found, my function returns TRUE (great!), but if not, the condition does not evaluate to FALSE. ex): if( grep("hi", "hop", fixed = TRUE) ) print('yes, your substring is in your string') else

Good Morning, I am trying to create a new column of character strings based on the first two letters in a string in another column. I believe that I need to use some combination of ifelse and grep but I am not totally sure how to combine them. I am not totally sure why the command below isn't working. Obviously it isn't finding anything that matches my criteria but I am not sure why. Any

Hello, I am having trouble using "optim". I want to maximalise a function to its parameters [kind of like: univariate maximum likelihood estimation, but i wrote the likelihood function myself because of data issues ] When I try to optimize a function for only one parameter there is no problem: llik.expo<-function(x,lam){(length(x)*log(lam))-(length(x)*log(1-exp(-1*lam*

I've got an R wrapper around an old DOS program. In the R program I need to test whether the DOS program failed to produce certain output. This is indicated by certain text files created by the DOS program being empty. I can use system(command, intern=TRUE) to get the output of a DOS dir for a test file, but I'm having trouble parsing this to get the file size. Is there an R function

Hello, Does anyone know of a "slick" way to get R to convert a string which is all upper case to a string where the first letter in each word is upper case and all others are lower case? I suspect the solution is to begin by parsing the string, convert the appropriate letters to upper and lower case using "toupper" and "tolower", and then to paste the pieces back
