Hello, 1) What is the difference between a "data frame" (J H Maindonald, Using R, p. 12) and a "vector"? In Using R, the author asks the reader to enter the following data in a data frame, which I will call "mydata": year snow.cover 1970 6.5 1971 12.0 1972 14.9 1973 10.0 1974 10.7 1975 7.9 ... mydata=data.frame(year=c(1970,...),snow.cover=c(6.5,...)) 2) How to

Hello all! I have a problem with ggplot2 library. I want to do an heat map and the y variables are the year months. If I use the following code, he y values are in alphabetical order, but I want it in month order. The code is: library(reshape) library(ggplot2) library(scales) p <- ggplot(data.m, aes(variable, Month)) + geom_tile(aes(fill = value),

Hi all: I'm struggling with getting my data re-formatted using functions in reshape/reshape2 to get from: 1957 0.862500000 1958 0.750000000 1959 0.300000000 1960 0.287500000 1963 0.675000000 1964 0.937500000 1965 0.025000000 1966 0.387500000 1969 0.087500000 1970 0.275000000 1973 0.500000000 1974 0.362500000 1976 0.925000000 1978 0.712500000 1979 0.337500000 1980 0.700000000 1981 0.425000000

Dear R-users, I have a complex line by xy-values (ordered by z). And I would like to get interpolated y-values on the positions of x = 0:600. How do I get the correct points? x=c(790,790,790,790,790,786,783,778,778,766,763,761,761,761,715,628,521,350,160,134,134,129,108,101,93,111,161,249,288,243,139,45,7)

A late friday afternoon coding question. I'm having a hard time thinking of the correct search terms for what I want to do.

Dear list, This is a bit of an off-topic question, but I'm hoping to get some advice from more experienced people. I've used the website "Web of Science" to manually collect publication counts responding to several keywords as a function of date, since the 1960s. http://apps.isiknowledge.com/RAMore.do?product=UA&search_mode=&SID=P1g9lFJp9 at

Hello, We are looking to adjust the font size of the axis annotation on the graph that results from use of the metaplot() function. Metaplot seems to respond to cex and cex.lab to change those graphical parameters, but it doesn't respond to cex.axis. Is there a way to work around this by creating a customized x-axis, and if so, how? Thanks for all your help. Syntax is below. Best, Dawn

Hello all! I have a problem to extract values greater that for example 1820. I try this code: x[x[,1]>1820,]->x1 Please help me! Thank you! The data structure is: structure(c(2.576, 1.728, 3.434, 2.187, 1.928, 1.886, 1.2425, 1.23, 1.075, 1.1785, 1.186, 1.165, 1.732, 1.517, 1.4095, 1.074, 1.618, 1.677, 1.845, 1.594, 1.6655, 1.1605, 1.425, 1.099, 1.007, 1.1795, 1.3855, 1.4065, 1.138, 1.514,

This does not use reshape/reshape2, but it is pretty straightforward. Assuming X is your example data: > Y <- split(X[, 2], X[, 1]) > vals <- sapply(Y, length) > pad <- max(vals) - vals > Y2 <- lapply(seq_along(Y), function(x) c(Y[[x]], rep(NA, pad[x]))) > names(Y2) <- names(Y) > X2 <- do.call(cbind, Y2) > X2[, 1:6] 1957 1958 1959

The reason it doesn't work easily with reshape/reshape2 is that the order of the rows is not determined. Your answer could be 1957 1958 ... 1985 1986 0.8625000 0.7500000 ... 0.7307692 0.23750000 0.0733945 0.6435644 ... NA 0.05769231 0.5096154 NA ... NA 0.65137615 or 1957 1958 ... 1985 1986 0.0733945 0.6435644 ... NA

I am trying to extract only the winters (defined to be 01-Dec through 28-Feb) of daily data from 1948-2002. There are 90 days in each winter season. I wrote the following code to gather the winter dates into a single vector: DJF <- NULL for(year in 1949:1999) { temp.begin <- strptime(paste("01/12", year-1, sep="/"), "%d/%m/%Y") temp.end <-
