similar to: Periods instead of spaces in dataframe names?

I'd like to label a bar plot with the actual value of each bar, inside the bar. I see that there are ways to plot arbitrary text, so I could do it 'manually', but this seems common enough that there's probably a simple solution. I don't see it in the high-level documentation for barplot, and haven't found it anywhere yet. How might this be done? Thanks, Tom

I am trying to combine two data sets, one with daily values and one with weekly values.  SurveyData conatins environmental data collected on a daily basis.  sat.data contains satellite sea surface temperature that is an average of satellite measurements over a six day period.  I would like to combine the two files so that my output file has the daily dates from SurveyData and the weekly average

I'm trying to generate some plots for print publication and I'm having trouble getting them the way I want. I get a plot with a legend that overlaps the bars and looks bad. Also, I'm saving this as PDF file (whatever happened to the "png" function to save as PNG format, in r 1.4.1?) I've tried a number of things, which produce a number of questions. 1) it seems that the

I can't figure out the syntax I need to get subset to work. I'm trying to split my dataframe into two parts. I'm sure this is a simple issue, but I'm stumped. I either get all or none of the original "rows". > XTTable <- xtabs( ~ direction_ , SurveyData) > XTTable direction_ EASTBOUND

I'm having a problem reading data to set control totals for a dataframe. I want to adjust a dataframe based on a 2-d table of values, which I get by using : > CurrentX1Sums <- as.matrix(xtabs(~tripid_nu+lineon, data=SurveyData)) > CurrentX2Sums <- apply(CurrentX1Sums, 1, sum) I've created a .csv file with new (target) sums that looks like this: tripid_nu Warner

I am processing some survey results, and my data are being read in as "factors". I don't know how to process these things in any way. To start with, several of the survey questions are mulit-choice check boxes on the original (web-based) survey, as in "check all that apply". These are encoded as numbers. For example, if the survey has a question: Which operating systems

Dear List, I need a barplot with vertical bars. Each bar should have a label. The problem is, that the labels are too long, so they overlap, or only every seccond label is displayed in the output. Here is a little syntax: dd <- c(100,110,90,105,95) barplot(dd,names.arg=c('Conduct Disorders','Attention Deficit', 'Eating Disorders',

Hi all, I'd be grateful for your help. I am a new user struggling with a barplot issue. I am plotting categories (X axis) and their mean count (Y axies) with barplot(). The first call to barplot works fine. I remove records from the dataframe using final=[!final$varname == "some value",] I echo the dataframe and the records are no longer in the dataframe. When I call plot again

Hi all I'm have a character vector and would like to suppress the blanks if there are more than one after the other. Example: Character value is: "abc def ghi" The result should be: "abc def ghi" I know that it's possible to delete the leading blanks with the command "trim". But how can I delete blanks within a character? Thank you very much in

hello, I am trying to do exploratory factor analysis with BRFSS dataset ( http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/technical_infodata/surveydata/2008.htm) for a couple of days, but I was not able to do that and got frustrated. Can anybody help me with step by step guide? BRFSS dataset provides ASCII or SAS format. Thank you. chloe [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am making a barplot using barplot2 from gplots and would like to format the names of my categorical variables (tree species) on the x- axis so that the genus name is above the species name (to save room). My code so far is: speciesnames<-c("Dialium guianensis", "Inga alba", "Tachigali versicolor", "Brosimum utile", "Caryocar

Hello R-users, I have code that gives me the important variables from an analysis. I need to input these variables into a different analysis. To do this, I need to modify them slightly... 1) remove all numbers at the end of the variables, 2) remove all periods. I tried to do it with the awkward code below. It works to remove all the numbers, but when I try to remove the period everything

I want to calculate "expansion factors" for elements in my dataframe based on a 2-d cross classification. Since I'll have "missing values" (many combinations will have no record) I'll need a second "expansion factor" for each "row". I've included my "work to date" below, but I'm not very close to getting this right. My

Hi, If I have data as follows: DATA_names<-c( "A mg kg" "B mg kg" "C mg kg" "D mg kg" "E mg kg" "F mg kg" "G mg kg" "H mg kg" How do I convert to: -1 A (mg kg ) -1 B (mg kg ) -1 C (mg kg ) -1 D (mg kg ) -1 E (mg kg ) -1 F (mg

I'm unable to open an SPSS file over my network. If I copy it to my local C:/ drive I can read it. I saved the command (in a "crib sheet" text file) in order to avoid all the typing, so I'm pretty sure I've done it before. I verified that the file I'm trying to read is OK. This is what happens: > SurveyData <-

Estimados miembros de la comunidad de R Me gustaria conocer dado que estoy trabajando con datos del World Values Survey, y tengo que recodificar variables y manipularlas, por donde podria empezar a estudiar el uso de R en grandes surveys. Que podria comenzar a la leer. Su respuesta sera bienvenida saludos Antonio -- Member, Editorial Committee, *The Economic and Labour Relations Review* (a

I am trying to automate a report that my company does every couple of years for the state of Maine. In the past we have used SPSS to run the data and then used complicated Excel template to make the tables/graphics which we then imported into Word. Since there are 256 tables/graphics for this report, this work flow is a little painful. I would like to automate the process and I think I can do

Dear all: Plan 1: I want to do serval t-test means for different variables in a loop , so I want to add all results to an object then dump() them to an text. But I don't know how to append T-test result to the object? I have already plot the barplot and I want to know an elegant way to report raw result. Can anybody give me some pieces of advice?

Hi, #working directory data1 #changed name data to data1.? Added some files in each of sub directories a1, a2, etc. ?indx1<- indx[indx!=""] lapply(indx1,function(x) list.files(x)) #[[1]] #[1] "a1.txt"??????? "mmmmm11kk.txt" #[[2]] #[1] "a2.txt"???????

Dear R Users, I am working with gsub for the first time. I am trying to remove some characters from a string. I have hit the problem where the period is the shorthand for 'everything' in the R language when what I want to remove is the actual periods. In the example below, I simply want to remove the periods as I have removed the comma, but instead the complete string is wiped out. I
