similar to: Warning from reshape2 when melting a data frame with uneven number of columns.

Is this the solution? > d1<- as.data.frame(lapply(data,as.character),stringsAsFactors=FALSE) > str(d1) 'data.frame': 3 obs. of 5 variables: $ V1: chr "Name1" "Name2" "Name3" $ V2: chr "nam1" "name_12" "name-1" $ V3: chr "nam2" "nam_34" "name-2" $ V4: chr "nam3"

I am not really sure what the warning means but I think your underlying problem is that all your variables are factors. Did you intend the values in each variable to be character? data.frame':??? 3 obs. of? 5 variables: ?$ V1: Factor w/ 3 levels "Name1","Name2",..: 1 2 3 ?$ V2: Factor w/ 3 levels "nam1","name-1",..: 1 3 2 ?$ V3: Factor w/ 3 levels

Dear All I would need to generate differences between variates such as nam1<-nam2-nam3 in the following loop: for(i in c("13","26","38")) { for (j in c("HR","PQ","QRS","QT")){ nam1<-paste("d",j,i,sep="") nam2<-paste(j,i,sep=".")

Hello everbody, I want to generate different subsets of my data-set and safe this subsets with names listet in a vector. Because in reality I have got about 70 subsets I want to realize this in a loop Somehow like this: names=c("nam1",

Hi everyone,   I have got the following problem:   x1 <- rnorm(10,5,1) x2 <- runif(10,0,1) nam1 <- paste("A",1:4,sep=".") nam2 <- paste("A",6:9,sep=".") nam <- c(nam1,"A.4",nam2,"A.9") mydata <- data.frame(x1,x2) rownames(mydata) <- nam Error in `row.names<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, value = c("A.1",

Hi all, I am trying to compare two distance matrices with R. I would like to create a XY plot of these matrices and do some linear regression on it. But, I am a bit new to R, so i have a few questions (I searched in the documentation with no success). The first problem is loading a distance matrix into R. This matrix is the output of a the Phylip program Protdist and lookes like this: 5

I am trying to call a funtion within another function and I clearly am misunderstanding what I should do. Below is a simple example. I know lstfun works on its own but I cannot seem to figure out how to get it to work within ukn. Basically I need to create the variable "nts". I have probably missed something simple in the Intro or FAQ. Any help would be much appreciated. EXAMPLE

I am sorry, I'd like to split my column ("names") such that all the beginning of a string ("X..") is gone and only the rest of the text is left. x<-data.frame(names=c("X..aba","X..abb","X..abc","X..abd")) x$names<-as.character(x$names) (x) str(x) Can't figure out how to apply strsplit in this situation - without using a

Hi everyone- I have a dataset with multiple "pre" and "post" variables I want to compare. The variables are named "apple_pre" or "pre_banana" with the corresponding post variables named "apple_post" or "post_banana". The variables are in no particular order. apple_pre orange_pre orange_post pre_banana apple_post post_banana person_1

Dear all, I'm trying to remove some text after the period (a decimal point) in the data frame 'hi', below. This is one step in formatting a table. So I would like e.g. "2.0" to become "2" and "5.3" to be "5.3", where the variable digordered contains the number of digits after the decimal that I would like to display, in the same order in which

Hello, I implemented two functions reshape_long and reshape_wide (see full working example below) to reshape data frames. I created several small examples and the two functions seemed to work properly. However, using the reshape_wide function on my real data sets (about 200.000 to 300.000 rows) failed. What happens is set all values for X, Y and Z were set to 1. The structure of my real data

I'm studying alone the R language for data preparation. I found a course at MIT for data preparation that uses python but I'm using R to learning. The first exercise is the preparation of data from a database that shows the contributions made to candidates for U.S. president. The database is described in FORMART

Working with 5 subset streams from my source data frame, three of them successfully call dcast(), but two fail: jerritt.cast <- dcast(jerritt.melt, site + sampdate ~ param) Aggregation function missing: defaulting to length and winters.cast <- dcast(winters.melt, site + sampdate ~ param) Aggregation function missing: defaulting to length Yet both data frames have the values in their

Hello everyone, I have the following data frame: > df V1 V2 V3 1 bench1_10 16675 16678 2 bench1_10 16585 16672 3 bench1_100 183924 185563 4 bench1_100 169310 184806 5 bench1_300 514430 516834 6 bench1_300 510743 514062 7 bench1_500 880146 877882 8 bench1_500 880146 857359 9 bench1_1k 880146 1589600 10 bench1_1k 880146 1709990 > I'd like to

Hello, I'm using R to run a acoustic analysis software called Seewave. I ask the code to extract a list of variables from my recording, and the program give ONE table for each of these. The tables consist of a two column data.frame with the time in column 1 and the frequency in column 2. However, for my purpose I need only one column with the time first and the frequency second. I tried

Dear list, I'm trying to use the reshape package to perform a merging operation on a list of data.frames as illustrated below, > a <- 1:10 > example <- list( data.frame(a=a, b=sin(a)), data.frame(a=a, > b=cos(a)) ) > > melt(example, id = a) this produces the desired result, where the data.frames have been coerced into one with a common identifier variable

Yesterday FedEx brought me my new TDM400P with 4 FXS modules. I installed it (in the correct type PCI slot) , plugged in the power, and fired up the system. A few minutes later everyone in the office is complaining about something burning. I open the server again, and the top of the Digium card is black, slightly deformed, and looks and smells of melted plastic. The funny thing is.the card

I have a new device that takes measurements anywhere from every second, to every 15 minutes (depending on changes). The matrix has a date, time and Y column (Y is the measurement). For three days it is 25,000 rows. How do I average the measurements by every 30 minutes so my matrix is 48 rows per day? I have been working on this and cannot figure out a simple method. Any ideas? Thank you. ----- In

Dear All, I need some help arranging data that was imported. The imported data frame looks something like this (the actual file is huge, so this is example data) DF: IDKey X1 Y1 X2 Y2 X3 Y3 X4 Y4 Name1 21 15 25 10 Name2 15 18 35 24 27 45 Name3 17 21 30 22 15 40 32 55 I would like to create a new data frame with the following NewDF: IDKey X Y Name1 21 15 Name1

I am trying to import a file of daily index closing prices in business time which excludes weekends and holidays so deltat is not constant.
