I'm trying to plot observations against observation dates and getting julian dates along the x-axis: library(date) Week<-as.date(c("05/02/03","05/09/03","05/16/03","05/23/03","05/30/03","06/0 7/03","06/14/03")) Leafminers<-c(0,2,5,10,4,6,5) Diglyphus<-c(0,0,4,5,7,3,1) LeafDig<-cbind(Week,Leafminers,Diglyphus)

Is there a way of removing all rows with missing values from a data frame? I usually use subset(x, var1!="NA") and repeat for each variable. It would be nice to be able to do it in one fell swoop. Also, surprisingly, it doesn't always work. Sometimes I'm left with an empty set even though not all rows have missing values for the variable. Cheers, mikkel Mikkel Grum,

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this command?? xx<-subset(x,LOCAL.NAME==c("Chifumbata","Chikota"),select=c(13,16,19,23,26,2 9,30,33:48)) Warning message: longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length in: LOCAL.NAME == c("Chifumbata", "Chikota") both of the following commands work fine

I'm trying to plot four different sorghum types on a plot using a different colour/symbol combination for each sorghum type (TYPBOTA in the script below). What am I doing wrong?: plot(xx$LATITUDE,xx$SFD1, points(xx$SFD1,xx$LATITUDE, col=1:4[codes(xx$TYPBOTA)],pch=c(4,3,1,2)[codes(xx$TYPBOTA)]) grid() I get the following error message Error in 1:4[codes(xx$TYPBOTA)] : NA/NaN argument

I have two problems where I've come up with some code that will do the analysis that I want, but it looks pretty clumsy. In the first case, I calculate the variance on five different columns for each of 14 clusters and get them into one matrix. I get the job done, but I would have thought that it could be done in one or two lines, not six, and be generalized so that it didn't matter how

Is there a way of extracting mean distance or dissimilarity for a given strata from a 'dist' or 'dissimilarity' object, e.g. extract mean distances for each species in Anderson's iris data? data(iris) iris.dist<-dist(iris[,1:4]) then what?

Any idea why clusters five and six fall off the scale in the following? library(cluster) library(maptree) data(flower) dfl2<-daisy(flower,type=list(asymm=c(1,3),ordratio=7)) hdfl2<-hclust(dfl2) prune.dfl2<-prune.clust(hdfl2,k=6) plot(prune.dfl2) Of course the following will display all six clusters, but without a scale: draw.tree(prune.dfl2) Best wishes, Mikkel Mikkel Grum

When I use the function cutree(), the numbers of the clusters are not in the same order as the plotted dendrogram. Is there any way of sorting them so that they match the tree? Is it possible to plot a dendrogram horizontally, preferably with the branches to the right? This would enable some practical composite plots, e.g. labels that were an entire table with several columns of information, or

Hi Can anyone explain why a date becomes numeric when you loop over a series of dates? > dt <- Sys.Date() > dt [1] "2017-11-14" > class(dt) [1] "Date" > dts <- dt - 1:0 > class(dts) [1] "Date" > > for (i in dts) { + print(i) + print(class(i)) + print(as.Date(i, "1970-01-01")) + print(class(as.Date(i,

Is there any function in R like is.not.found(x, y) meaning if you can't find object x, then use object y?? Mikkel Grum

What am I doing wrong, or is the \r that I'm getting in the example below a bug? > a <- (1:10) > b <- (LETTERS[1:10]) > df <- as.data.frame(cbind(a, b)) > > df a b 1 1 A 2 2 B 3 3 C 4 4 D 5 5 E 6 6 F 7 7 G 8 8 H 9 9 I 10 10 J > library(RSQLite) > drv <- dbDriver("SQLite") > con <- dbConnect(drv, dbname = "Test")

I want to do something like df[df$b %in% df2[i, 2], ] where df$b is a numeric vector and df2[i, 2] is a factor with levels like "7:9, 12:14". For example: a <- c(paste("A", 1:10, sep = ""), paste("B", 1:10, sep = "")) b <- 1:20 df <- as.data.frame(cbind(a, b)) df$b <- as.numeric(levels(df$b))[as.integer(df$b)] f <-

Apparently any (?) call of the form cut(date,"weeks") where the date *begins the week*, gives the error Error in 1:(1 + max(which(breaks < maxx))) : result would be too long a vector In addition: Warning message: In max(which(breaks < maxx)) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf To my surprise, this was first reported as a problem in 2006 (!) (version 2.3.1

I run a batch file with the following command in Windows XP: C:\R\R-2.12.1\bin\Rterm.exe --no-save --no-restore <C:\users\me\file.R> C:\users\me\file.out 2>&1 Is there any way to get only the output of R in file.out, without getting all the code from file.R too? Any help greatly appreciated, Mikkel

Dear useRs, I'm writing regular survey reports using Sweave. Each report has several sections along the lines of: \section*{Disease X} <<MapX,fig=TRUE,echo=FALSE>>= image(vectorx,vectory,matrixz) @ Notes with or without Sexpr{a}. \vfill \pagebreak \section*{Disease Y} <<MapY,fig=TRUE,echo=FALSE>>= ...etc. Often one or more of the diseases is not observed (all
