similar to: plot ᵒ C in graph axis label

Readers, I have tried to use a plotmath command to add the temperature degree sign (i.e. ? C) to the axis label of a graph: > x<-(1:10) > y<-(200:191) > plot(x~y,ylab=expression(*degree~C)) Error: syntax error, unexpected '*', expecting ',' in "plot(x~y,ylab=expression(*" According to plotmath manual, the syntax is '*degree' and I am able to use

Readers, For this data set: testvalues<-c(10,20,30,40) How to amend the plot instruction: plot(testvalues,ann=FALSE,type='l',yaxt='n',xaxt='n') so that x axis ticks labels can be added to existing graph with arbitrary value such as 0,100,200,300)? Thanks in advance. -- r2151

Readers, For a 12 hour time stamp: > testtime<-("2013-01-01 01:00:01 PM") > testtime [1] "2013-01-01 01:00:01 PM" > testtime24hour<-strftime(testtime,'%H:%M:%S') > testtime24hour [1] "01:00:01" how to convert to 24 hour format so that the object 'testtime24hour' is: '13:00:01' Thanks. -- r2151

Readers, Am trying to plot a graph with type 'h' and want to remove the white space between the plot lines and the x axis. The help section 'par' suggests that the option 'mai' controls this feature, but the syntax plot(...mai=c(0,1,1)) is ineffective Any advice please? -- r2151

I am trying to copy files to a password protected drive which is "Ranch" at TACC from another network drive. I am logged in to the source drive and can run R there. The following code does not even find the destination folder. file.copy("sourcedrive/file.tar", " username@ranch.tacc.utexas.edu/uniqueID/destinationfolder/file.tar", overwrite = FALSE) Thanks in

Readers, For a graph plot instruction: plot(seq(10:50),type='h',yaxt='n',yaxs='i',lab=c(20,2,2),xlab='x axis label',bty='l',main='graph title') how to remove y-axis label and keep the x-axis label? _ r2151

Readers, Am trying to use the function 'approx' to interpolate time series data sets: data1: 01:23:40 5 01:23:45 10 01:23:50 12 01:23:55 7 data2: 01:23:42 01:23:47 01:23:51 01:23:54 The objective is to obtain interpolated values of 'data1' column 2 (5, 10, 12, 7) for the times shown in data2. Tried the following command but received the error shown:

Readers, Responding to an old post (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e2/help/07/06/18850.html), and using the example in the manual: monthextract<-strptime("20/2/06 11:16:16.683", "%m") monthextract [1] NA Why is the result 'NA' and not '2'? -- r2151

Readers, Is it possible to create a plot command based upon the indices of missing values in a data set? dataset1<-read.table(text=' 10 2 20 NA 30 5 40 7 50 NA 60 NA 70 2 80 6 90 NA 100 9 ') dataset2<-read.table(text=' 0.2 0.4 0.1 0.9 0.2 0.3 1.1 0.7 0.9 0.6 0.4 ') The 'approx' function is used to obtain the interpolated values for 'NA' in dataset1.

Readers, According to the help '?approxfun', the function can be used to obtain the interpolated values. The following test was tried: > testinterpolation<-read.csv('test.csv',header=FALSE) > testinterpolation V1 V2 1 10 2 2 20 NA 3 30 5 4 40 7 5 50 NA 6 60 NA 7 70 2 8 80 6 9 90 9 10 100 NA >

Dear expeRts, How can I vertically adjust an axis tick label so that it is nicely aligned with the other labels? library(lattice) xyplot(0~0, xlim=c(0,3), scales=list(x=list(at=c(1,1.1), labels=c(expression(hat(theta)[italic(n)]),expression(theta))))) ## aim: move the leftmost expression up so that theta is nicely aligned with the second theta. Cheers, Marius

Readers, Is it possible to add a data symbol (e.g. pch='21') to an axis label? The objective is to plot a graph with two (2) y-axes and the plotting character for data set 1 is added to the label of y1 axis (left); plot character for data set 2 is added to label of y2 (right) axis. Thanks. -- r2151

In ?title I see the plot(cars, main = "") title(main = list("Stopping Distance versus Speed", cex=1.5, col="red", font=3)) I can't seem to generalize this to use several colors in a single title. What I'd like is in latex-ish \red{Hair color} \black{ and } \blue{Eye color} to serve also as an implicit legend for points that are plotted. -Michael --

Recent questions about using plotmath have renewed my interest in this question I want to have expressions take values of variables from the environment. I am able to use expressions, and I am able to use paste to put text and values of variables into plots. But the two things just won't work together. Here is some example code that shows what I mean. plot(NA,xlim=c(0,100),ylim=c(0,100))

I made my own RUnit testing convention, and I want to introduce this to one of my friends. Before that, I'd like to review my codes. The problem that I met when I tried to polish my codes is: How can I get the file path in the file??? I.e., I want to get the path to the file that I'm writing using some magic R functions. But I couldn't find any good magic. Is there any magic? So, I

Hi, guys. I''ve been trying to use the pci-phantom command line options to xen so as to work around the hardware issue with the Marvell 88SE91xx SATA controllers in IOMMU ([Intel:] VT-d) mode, but I cannot seem to get my head around it. From having had a glance here: http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/xen-command-line.html and in particular the syntax described as such:

Dear R-List, I want to use the label function (from Hmisc library) to allow for the names of my isotopes. library(Hmisc) library(lattice) library(grid) num <- c("78","137","129m") nom <- c("Ge","Cs","Te") df <- data.frame(GE78=seq(nom),CS137=seq(nom),TE129m=seq(nom)) if I use this function to create the labels : lab <-

Dear R help list, I have a plot with two different vertical scales that I want to display on either side of the plot. It's quite similar to the Fahrenheit-Centigrade example in the examples section of the documentation for axis.default. The right-side axis is clipped off, though, and I haven't been able to figure out anything with viewport() and clipping or trellis.par.set to fix
