Gentlemen, I have googled, searched the mailing list archives, and even spoke on the IRC channel, but have not found an answer to the following problem. I am attempting to retrieve multiple columns in an ODBC query using ARRAY per the solutions offered by many individuals. My dialplan code is as follows: exten => _.,n,Set(ARRAY(var1,var2,var3)=${ODBC_LOOKUP(${KEYVAL})}) exten =>

Dear all, I have a dataset that looks like this: x <- read.table(textConnection("col1 col2 3 1 2 2 4 7 8 6 5 10"), header=TRUE) I want to rewrite it as below: var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 var6 var7 var8 var9 var10 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0

Hello everyone, I am looking at the joint spatial distribution of 2 kinds of organisms (estimated on a grid of points) and want to test for significant association or dissociation. My first question is: do you know a nice technique to do that, considering that I have a limited number of points (36) but that they are repeated (4 times)? I did GLMs to test for correlations between the

Hi friends, I have a matrix with following format. group var1 var2 .......varN c1 group1 1.2399 1.4990....-1.4829 c2 group4 0.8989 0.7849.....1.8933 ... ... c100 group10 ..... I want to draw a profile plot of each condition c1 to c100, which rows in above matrix and each line representing a row should be uniquely colored according to the group(1 to 10). I think this is simple task

Suppose I have a dataframe as follows: dat <- data.frame(id = c(1,1,2,2,2), var1 = c(10,10,20,20,25), var2 = c('foo', 'foo', 'foo', 'foobar', 'foo')) Now, if I were to subset by id, such as: > subset(dat, id==1) id var1 var2 1 1 10 foo 2 1 10 foo I can see that the elements in var1 are exactly the same and the elements in var2 are exactly

Greetings R users, My goal is to generate quartile groups of each variable in my data set. I would like each experiment to have its designated group added as a subsequent column. I can accomplish this individually with the following code: brks <- with(data_variables, cut2(var2, g=4)) #I don't want the actual numbers, I need a numbered group data$test1=factor(brks,

Hi, I have this symmetric matrix, at least I think so. col1 col2 col3 [1,] 0.20 0.05 0.06 [2,] 0.05 0.10 0.03 [3,] 0.06 0.03 0.08 or structure(c(0.2, 0.05, 0.06, 0.05, 0.1, 0.03, 0.06, 0.03, 0.08 ), .Dim = c(3L, 3L), .Dimnames = list(NULL, c("var1", "var2", "var3"))) But isSymmetric() doesn't agree. Any comment? I am on R 2.10.1 Thanks. Jun

Dear R helpers I have a data set sth like this: set.seed(123);dat <- data.frame(ID= c(rep(1,2),rep(2,3), rep(3,3), rep(4,4), rep(5,5)), var1 =rnorm(17, 35,2), var2=runif(17,0,1)) dat ID var1 var2 1 1 33.87905 0.02461368 2 1 34.53965 0.47779597 3 2 38.11742 0.75845954 4 2 35.14102 0.21640794 5 2 35.25858 0.31818101 6 3 38.43013

For personal aesthetic reasons, I changed the name "data" to "dat". Your code, with a slight modification: set.seed (1357) ## for reproducibility dat <- data.frame(var1=seq(1:40), var2=seq(40,1)) dat$sampleNo <- 0 idx <- sample(seq(1,nrow(dat)), size=10, replace=F) dat[idx,"sampleNo"] <-1 ## yielding > dat var1 var2 sampleNo 1 1 40

Hi David, I was about to post a reply when Bert responded. His answer is good and his comment to use the name 'dat' rather than 'data' is instructive. I am providing my suggestion as well because I think it may address what was causing you some confusion (mainly to use "which", but also the missing !) idx2 <- sample( which( (!data$var1%%2) & data$sampleNo==0 ),

Hello all I have a feeling this is very simple......but I am not sure how to do it My boss has two variables, one is an average of 4 numbers, the other is an average of 3 of those numbers i.e var1 = (X1 + X2 + X3 + X4)/4 var2 = (X1 + X2 + X3)/3 all of the X variables are supposed to be measuring similar constructs not surprisingly, these are highly correlated (r = .98), the question is how

Dear everyone, I have looked all over the internet but I cannot find a way to solve my problem. In my data I want to sum a couple of variables. Some of these variables have NA values, and when I add them together, the result is NA dat <- data.frame( id = gl(5,1), var1 = rnorm(5, 10), var2 = rnorm(5, 7), var3 = rnorm(5, 6), var4 = rnorm(5, 3), var5 = rnorm(5, 8) ) dat[3,3] <- NA dat[4,5]

Dear all, I have a data set in which the same unit appears 2 or 3 or 4 times. I need to aggregate this data to maintain only one unit by row. But I need to do that based on a comparison between the values of such units. I can't find a function to help me on that. I appreciate any help. Below I provide an example of what I want: This is my data: Units Var1 Var2 Var3 1 B 2

Dear List, I have Multi-level Data i= Indivitual Level g= Group Level var1= First Variable of interest var2= Second Variable of interest and I want to count the frequency of "var1" and "var2" on the group level. I found a way, but there must be a much simpler way. data.ml <- data.frame(i=c(1:8),g=as.factor(c(1,1,1,2,2,3,3,3)),var1=c(3,3,3,4,4,4,4 ,4),

I have a data frame whose first colum contains the names of the variables and whose second colum contains the values to assign to them: : kkk <- data.frame(vars=c("var1", "var2", "var3"), vals=c(10, 20, 30), stringsAsFactors=F) If I do : assign(kkk$vars[1], kkk$vals[1]) it works : var1 [1] 10 However, if I try with mapply

Dear List, Consider the following example: dat <- data.frame(var1 = rnorm(100), var2 = rnorm(100), var3 = rnorm(100), var4 = rnorm(100)) oldpar <- par(mfrow = c(2,2), no.readonly = TRUE) invisible(lapply(dat, function(x) { plot(density(x), main = deparse(substitute(x))) } ) )

Hi, I am using R 1.9.1 on on i686 PC with SuSE Linux 9.0. I have a data.frame, e.g.: > myData <- data.frame( var1 = c( 1:4 ), var2 = c (5:8 ) ) If I add a new column by > myData$var3 <- myData[ , "var1" ] + myData[ , "var2" ] everything is fine, but if I omit the commas: > myData$var4 <- myData[ "var1" ] + myData[ "var2" ] the name

Hi all, I have been trying to solve this problem and have had no luck so far. I have numeric vectors VAR1, VAR2, and VAR3 which I am trying to cbind. I also have a character vector "VAR1,VAR2,VAR3". How do I manipulate this character vector such that I can input a transformed version of the character vector into cbind and have it recognize that I'm trying to refer to my numeric

Buenas noches Javier y José, Estoy en contra de usar attach(), asi que propongo la siguiente alternativa con with(): # paquete require(epicalc) # los argumentos en ... pasan de epicalc:::cc # ver ?cc para mas informacion foo <- function(var1, var2, var3, ...){ or1 <- cc(var1, var2, ...) or2 <- cc(var1, var3, ...) list(or1 = or1, or2 = or2) } # datos x <-

I would like to know how to turn a variable into a string. I have tried as.symbol and as.name but it doesnt work for what I'd like to do Essentially, I'd like to feed the function below with two variables. This works fine in the bit working out number of elements in each variable. In the print(sprintf("OK with %s and %s\n", var1, var2)) line I would like var1 and var2 to be
