Help on numerical object and ifelse function
Dear All,   this is probably an easy one but I can not get a handle on it:   x <-c(1,2,3,4,5) y <-c(6,7,8,9,10) z <-15 w <-ifelse(z>14,x,y)   this will give me a value of 1 for w. What I would like to get is the whole string of x, so that w would become a numeric object of 5 characters exactly the same as x.   Apreciate the help,   Sincerely,   Andras [[alternative HTML version

Help on finding specific columns in matrix
Dear All,   I have a matrix with 33 columns and 5000 rows. I would like to find 2 specific columns in the set: the one that holds the highest values and the one that holds the lowest values. In this case the column's mean would be apropriate to use to try to find those specific columns because each columns mean is different and they all change together based on the same "change of rate

Help on converting a Sweave document to PDF
Dear All,   I am working with a Sweave document to be converted into PDF using Rstudio. It seems to me that my R code will also show up after conversion, which I would like not to happen. Is there a way to specify a command that I could place on the beggining and at the end of the R code that would allow R to recognize the area where my R code is and would ignor it when the data is converted?

screen if a value is within range
Dear all,   could you please give me some pointers on how I could make R screen for a value if it falls within a certain range? I looked at the subset function, but is not doing it, perhaps because I only have 1 value to screen?   aptreciate the input   ex: a <-16.5 I would like to screen to see if a is within the range of 15 to 20, (which it is:-)), and I would like the code to return a value

"Re-creating" distributions
Dear All,   I often have to work with certain models in which I try to "reproduce" a distribution the best I can with very little known information avaible. Is there a package or function in R that could best reproduce a probability distribution using only the mean, median and SD values availble without knowing the actual distribution type to begin with and/or the covariance matrix (for

simple coversion of matrix rows to matrix columns
Dear All   I would like to convert matrix rows to columns. I am thinking the t() function should help, but am having a hard time converting the matrix into the dimensions I would like them to. Example:   a <-matrix(c(1:30),ncol=3) gives me:[,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 11 21 [2,] 2 12 22 [3,] 3 13 23 [4,] 4 14 24 [5,] 5 15 25 [6,] 6 16 26 [7,] 7 17

find closest value in a vector based on another vector values
Dear All, would you please provide your thoughts on the following: let us say I have: a <-c(1,5,8,15,32,69) b <-c(8.5,33) and I would like to extract from "a" the two values that are closest to the values in "b", where the length of this vectors may change but b will allways be shorter than "a". So at the end based on this example I should have the result

remove specific number of rows from a matrix

So if:   f <-c(1)   my result is working great with the following solution:   d[-length(f),]   so I get: a b [1,] 2 7 [2,] 3 8 [3,] 4 9 [4,] 5 10 but if I do: f <-c(1,2) then I get:

Help on Plot Title where text is "mixed" with numerical carachters
Dear All,   I have the following code set up:   x <-2000 y <-8 z <-3   I would need to use these numbers to show up in my plot title "mixed" with text. The x,y,z numbers would need to change, the text would not. So my title should look like this   "x txt1 y txt2 z txt3"   so if: txt1=hours txt2=minutes txt3=seconds   then my title of the plot should read:   2000 hours

how to skip part of the code
Dear All,   another quick question, this one is on skipping part of my code, so let us say:   a <-5 b <-2 e <-0   d <-a+b f <-a-b   what I would like to do is to have R NOT to calculate the value for d in case the value of e equals to zero (essentially skip that "chunk"), but instead move on to calculate te value for f. In the code I am working with the value of e changes,
