similar to: comma as decimal separator in plots

Dear R list-members, Is there any way to display numbers with comma as decimal separator, i.e., "5,4" instead of "5.4", in plots (x and y axis, expressions)?

Hi, I'd like to find which values of x will give me a y. In other words, in the example of a gaussian curve, I want to find the values of x that will give me a density, let's say, of 0.02. curve(((1/(sqrt(2*pi)*10))*exp(-((x-50)^2)/(2*10^2))),xlim=c(0,100)) Thanks for any help, Antonio Olinto ------------------------------------------------- WebMail Bignet - O seu provedor do

Thanks for your reply Nassar. What I really want is to overlay (like add=TRUE) the plots 1 and 2. With plots "at the same screen" I meant overlaid and not one beside the other, i.e., only one plot with all the points (1 to 10) in blue (or any other color), the points 5 to 9 in red and a regression line from points 5 to 9.

Dear R-list members, Some months ago I wrote a message on the usage of gnls (nlme library) and here I come again. Let me give an example: I have a 10 year length-at-age data set of 10 fishes (see growth.dat at the end of this message) and I want to fit a von Bertalanffy growth model, Li= Linf*(1-exp(-k*(ti-t0))) where Li = length at age i, Linf= asymptotic length, k= curvature parameter, ti=

Dear R-List members, I want to check if a set of measurements follows better a gamma or a lognormal distribution (see data below). Using shapiro.test I can test for normality (shapiro.test(log (Lt)). To test for gamma (and normal) distribution I would use ks.test but I need to specify its shape and scale. How should I calculate these values in R? I tried > Lt.fit <- glm(Lt ~ 1,

Dear R-list members Here goes a question on data frames: I want to create a new data frame excluding some records (rows) from an existing one. Considering the data frame "fish.dat" at the end of this message, I can make a boxplot(Ring~Radius) and identify the points at rows 11 and 25 as outliers. With the command fish.dat[c(11, 25),] I can identify which fishes are related to

Dear list members I want to analyze separately the months of a time series. In other words, I want to plot and fit models for each month separately. Taking the example of http://a-little-book-of-r-for-time-series.readthedocs.org/en/latest/src/timeseries.html births <- scan("http://robjhyndman.com/tsdldata/data/nybirths.dat") birthstimeseries <- ts(births, frequency=12,

Hello R-list members, I’m trying to make a min-avg-max plot (like a boxplot, without box and outliers, i.e., for each class of "x" a vertical line indicating the range (max-min) and an horizontal line or point indicating the mean) with data like: Year Avg Min Max 98 10 7 13 99 12 10 15 01 11 6 14 Which command should be used? Many thanks, Antonio Olinto

Hello, How can I make xtable print a comma as decimal separator? Setting the option OutDec isn't enough for xtable: library(xtable) options(OutDec = ",") x <- c(1.1, 1.2, 1.3) y <- c(2.3, 2.2, 2.1) d <- data.frame(x, y) d print(xtable(d)) Thanks! Jakson Aquino

Dear list members I have a doubt on how p-values for t-statistics are calculated in the summary of Linear Models. Here goes an example: x <- rnorm(100,50,10) y <- rnorm(100,0,5) fit1<-lm(y~x) summary(fit1) summary(fit1)$coef[2] # b summary(fit1)$coef[4] # Std. Error summary(fit1)$coef[6] # t-statistic summary(fit1)$coef[8] # Pr(>|t| summary(fit1)$df [2] # degrees of freedom #

Dear R-list members, Cynthia M. Jones wrote a paper (Fitting growth curves to retrospective size-at-age data, Fisheries Research 46(2000):123-129; abstract at http://www.elsevier.nl/gej-ng/10/19/44/70/24/37/abstract.html)where the SAS procedure MIXED, Macro NLINMIX (Littell et. al., 1996)was used to estimate the von Bertalanffy growth function parameters assuming that data from the same fish are

Hi, I want to write in x axis label "fitted value of lambda" (lambda in greek letter). xlab=expression(lambda) gives the "lambda", I tryed things like xlab=paste ("fitted value of ", expression(lambda)) but I didn't get the greek letter.

Hi to all, So I'm also a new user. I downloaded the program last week and I think it's great. Thanks to those who have developed R. I have a special interest in GLM as a tool to describe fisheries and its variables and I'm just begging to study it. As I could understand there's two types of GLM sun of squares: in "type I" the factors are added in sequence and

Hello I'm translating a Visual Basic routine to R. Which command in R is similar to "select case" in VB? See the example: select case int(AG) case 0, 5, 8, 10 VAR = 37 case 1, 4 VAR = 70 case 3, 6, 9 VAR = 90 case 2, 7 VAR = 112 end select A chain of "if else" would not be very elegant. Is there another option? Thanks in advance. Best regards. Antonio

Hi, after a lengthy but unsuccessfull search I couldn't come up with a solution to the following problem: I would like to have a "comma" instead of a "point" as the decimal point in my graphics, i.e. postscript and pdf files, for I write my thesis in German. My system is: OS: Debian Unstable R-Version: 2.0.1 System locale: de_DE at euro Could someone, please, help

Hello, I want to know how do R calculates the number of intervals between tick-marks in the y axis in a plot. I'm making a three y-axes plot and this information would help me a lot.

Hello, What is the easiest way which enables usage of decimal comma "," instead of decimal point (".") . I would like to force all RoR views to display float numbers with comma instead of decimal point and also to allow insertion of float numbers with comma in forms. Thanks in advance, Karel -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''m facing a really strange behaviour with rails 1.1.6. A model has a field declared as :float in schema.rb, as numeric in postgres 8.1. On save/update, rails makes the decimal point become a comma on the prod server only, hence making a sql error. This error was not there three weeks ago, i.e. when my prod server was in 1.1.4. Maybe something else changed, I cannot be sure

Hi, I have doubts in using subset command. I have a list of, lets say, 15 species and I want to make a subset with only 2 of them. I??m the command data2 <- subset(data1, species=="sp1"|species=="sp2") Nevertheless, when I ask for the summary (summary(data2)) the others species names still apearing. Also I tried data2<-data1(data1$species %in%
