Re: Writting R Function
Hi,
I think I found the problem. It lies in my Fortran program. Is there a
way, after a DO loop, to make sure it does NOT return anything?
Cheers,
Kevin

barplot()
Hi,
Is it possible to draw barplot with x-axis being shown? I looked up the
help file and I couldn't seem to find it.
For example, I tried to do
x <- 1:9
p <- log10(1 + 1/x)
barplot(p, xlab = "Digit d", ylab = "Probability",
ylim = c(0, 0.35), axes = F,
main = "Benford's Law Probability")
axis(1, 1:9)
axis(2, seq(0, 0.35, by = 0.05),

Subtitle?
Hi,
Is it possible to add a subtitle that appears directly below the main
title?
I tried the "sub" parameter, but it adds sub-title to the bottom of the
plot.
Cheers,

Using Object's Name in Function
Hi,
Suppose I have a function:
myfunc <- function(x, y) {
...
}
And within the function I want to print out the name of the x, y
vectors. For example, if I do:
> myfunc(foo, goo)
[1] "foo" "goo"
It shall return "foo", "goo" (with or without quotes is fine), where foo
and goo are two vectors with numbers.
I know this sounds strange, but I'd

More on for() Loop...
Hi,
Say I want to do something like fitting 10 different sized trees with
rpart() function. The only modification I need to do is to set 10
different cp's, which I have in a vector called foo.
Can I do something like:
for(i in 1:10) {
rpart(y ~ ., cp = foo[i], data = mydata)
}
My problem is, I wish to save the 10 rpart objects into 10 different
names, my.rpart1 ~ my.rpart10, for

More on list to data frame (was: Re: List to Data Frame
Hi,
Now suppose I have just one list called FOO, which has 25 objects, e.g.:
[[1]]
1 2 3 4 5
[[2]]
6 7 8 9 10
.
.
.
And I want to do something like:
FRED <- data.frame(cbind(unlist(FOO[[1]]),
unlist(FOO[[2]]),
# ... for all 25 subsets
))
Is it possible to do this, without doing unlist(FOO[[i]]) 25

Fortran (77) in R
Hi,
I'm learning Fortran and trying to load a Fortran subroutine into R.
I've done:
R SHLIB Fibonacci.f
and it compiled fine.
Then I went into R and done:

> Fib <- function(n) {
+ .Fortran("Fibonacci",
+ as.integer(n))[[1]]
+ }
> Fib(5)
Error in .Fortran("Fibonacci", as.integer(n)) :

Length of a string
Hi,
Suppose I have created something like this in R:
foo <- "myfoo"
and I want to find out the number of character in foo (in other words, R
should return 5 since "myfoo" has 5 charactors.
How can I do it? I tried:
length(foo)
but it returned 1.

Overall Title in par(mfrow)
Hi,
Say I did something like:
par(mfrow = c(1, 2))
plot(1:10)
plot(1:10)
and I'd like to have an overall title, i.e. a title that would appear,
centered, on the top of both plots, rather than the top of the last plot.
I tried:
title("FOO", outer = T)
but it doesn't appear right. Half of the FOO is outside the figure region
and can't be seen...
Is there another

xtable()
Hi,
Does anyone know how to manually configure the number of digits printed
out from xtable()?
For example, I'm exporting a data frame through xtable() into a LaTeX
table, I only have two columns in the data frame so by default I only get
two decimal places. But I'd like at least 5 decimal places.
I had a look at ?xtable() but can't seem to find an example.

Ploting in for() loop
Hi,
Suppose I have a for() loop that draws 6 boxplots as follows:
par(mfrow = c(2, 3))
for(i in 2:length(spam.sample)) {
boxplot(split(spam.sample[,i], yesno))
}
Where spam.sample is a data frame with 7 columns, and I'm interested in
plotting column 2 ~ 7 against column 1 (yesno).
The boxplots appeared fine, however I'm trying to add a meaningful title,
x and y labels to them.

Cleveland's Cut-and-Stack Plot
Hi,
Is there a function in R that does Cleveland's Cut-and-Stack plot (Page
190 -- 191, The Elements of Graphing Data, William S. Cleveland)?
Or do I need to do it the hard way, i.e. set par(mfrow = c(m, n)) then do
it one-by-one?
(I have a time series data set that is almost identical to the description
in Cleveland's book, hence I'm interested in trying the Cut-and-Stack
plot)

Rounding
Hi,
Suppose I have:
459
1789
23590
and I'd like to round them to:
400
1700
24000
On the other hand, say if I have:
232
1234
23120
that need to be rounded to:
300
1300
24000
I tried the round(), floor() or ceiling() and can't get what I want. Is
there any tricks I can use to achieve this goal?

s.window in stl()
Hi,
This is actually a theory question.
I'm a bit confused by the s.window parameter in the stl() function (which
is in the ts package). For example, in the stl documentation it uses the
nottem data, and then:
plot(stl(nottem, s.win = 4, t.win = 50, t.jump = 1))
What does it mean by s.win = 4? Is it because a year has 4 seasons
(namely Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter)? If so will it

List to Data Frame
Hi,
Suppose I have two lists. The first list is called FOO while the second
is called FRED.
Say FOO looks (I've simplifed it) like:
[[1]]
[,1]
[1,] 1
[2,] 2
[[2]]
[,1]
[1,] 3
[2,] 4
while FRED looks like:
[[1]]
[,1]
[1,] 5
[2,] 6
[[2]]
[,1]
[1,] 7
[2,] 8
Can I turn this list into a dataframe which

legend() outside plotting region
Hi,
Is it possible to put the legend outside the plotting region?
Say, I have some 24 lines within my plot, which pretty much filled the
plotting region and left me no space (well not enough space) to put in a
legend. So I'd like to put the legend outside the plotting region
(i.e. the region enclosed by the two axis -- I hope I got my terminology
right).
Actually, I did the 24 lines with
