Dear all, I am trying to calculate a score for a string sequence consisting of the following four letters: ACGT. I have got a matrix giving the scores for each pair of letters. So for example the string ACCT has got the pairs: AC, CC and CT. The matrix has got the following form: names<-c("A","C","G","T"); mscore<-matrix(0,4,4);

Hello, I have a data frame that has three fields. Resp# ActCode ProdUsed 100 3 2 100 3 2 100 4 3 100 4 3 101 3 6 102 2 1 102 3 1 103 5 1 103 5 1 103

Hi, I am sorry for this simple question, but... How do I extract something from a data.frame? The following is my Problem: I have got a dataframe "a" with various columns. One of those columns is called V3 and contains elements of the following levels: > levels(a$V3) [1] "C" "CA" "CB" "CD" "CD1" "CD2"

Hello, I have got the following problem: given is a large string sequence consisting of the four letters "A" "C" "G" and "T" (as before). Additionally, I have got a second string sequence of the same length giving a label for each character. The labels are "+" and "-". Now I would like to create an 8x8 matrix which contains the

Does anyone know how to interrupt R in RedHat? Neither control-c nor Esc is working. What I don't want to do is close the window or kill the entire R process. Thanks, David This communication is for use by the intended recipient and ...{{dropped}}

Hi again, thanks a lot for the quick answer. I just forgot the comma, always these stupid mistakes... Anyways, as I said before, I have two data.frames containing about 1000 rows and I would like to avoid looping through all of them... In each data.frame are coordinates (x,y,z), so every row is giving the information on one single point. I would like to calculate the distance from each point

Hello all, I'm looking for a way to be able to read a text file into R. It's a csv file but when I do "txt <-read.table("F00.csv", header=T, sep=",")" It doesn't read the file properly, and I only get 2 columns. If I open it up in OOc or Excel it open right with 7 columns. What I would really like to do is read the file as text and then split it and

This seems like a simple problem but I can't figure it out: I have two identical DIMENSION matrices. Both contain only binary values NOT identical between matrices. What I want to do: If in cell (1,1) the value in the first matrix (x) equals 1, then I keep the value in cell (1,1) in the second matrix (y). If in cell (1,1) the value in the first matrix (x) equals 0, then I change the value

Hi Folks, I'm trying to find a neat solution to an apparently simple problem, but one which turns out to be a bit more intricate and tricky than one might expect. Suppose I have numbers given to a large number of digits. For example 1234567021 where (though I don't know this beforehand) only the last 3 digits will be varying (and all 3 will vary). What I want is, give a vector x of

Dear all, I'm trying to gsub() "%" with "\%" with no obvious success. > temp1 <- c("mean", "sd", "0%", "25%", "50%", "75%", "100%") > temp1 [1] "mean" "sd" "0%" "25%" "50%" "75%" "100%" > gsub("%",

Hello I'm sorry if this suggestion/correction was already made but after a search in devel list I did not find any mention of it. I would just suggest to add a warning or an exemple for the help-file of the function unique() like "Note that unique() compares only identical values. Values which, are printed equally but in facts are not identical will be treated as different."

LS, I would really like to know how to count the frequency/occurrence of chachters inside a dataset. I am working with extreemly large datasets of forest inventory data with a large variety of different species inside it. Each row inside the dataframe represents one individual tree and the simplified dataframe looks something like this: num species dbh 1 sp1

In some languages there is a function gensym() which returns a new unique name (in the current environment). This is quite helpful when one has to do temporary assignments. I could not find such a function in R.

Greetings All. My apologies for a question whose answer is probably readily available somewhere (for some interpetation of "somewhere") ... Say I have just typed (from a sheet of paper) several lines into the R command-line, and what I see is: > chisq.test(matrix(c(3,6,3,4,4, + 4,1,4,6,5, + 2,7,4,2,5, + 8,2,4,4,2, +

Hi Folks, The spreadsheet-like layout displayed when 'data.entry' is invoked is very useful simply for legible display of data, quite apart from its intended use for the purpose of entering or editing data. If one wants to use it _simply_ as a display device, so that one can look around inside a data-set while working on it, then it is not a good idea to have its _editing_ capabilities

Hi, I am trying to simultaneously remove duplicate variables from two or more variables in a small R data.frame. I am trying to reproduce the SAS statements from a Proc Sort with Nodupkey for those familiar with SAS. Here's my example data : test <- read.csv("test.csv", sep=",", as.is=TRUE) > test date var1 var2 num1 num2 1 28/01/11 a 1 213 71 2

Dear R-help, I first thought that the empty set (for a vector) would be NULL. x <- c() x However, the documentation seems to make clear that there _many_ empty sets depending on the vector's mode, namely, numeric(0), character(0), logical(0), etc. This is borne out by y <- letters[1:3] z <- letters[4:6] intersect(y,z) which, of course, is non-NULL: is.null(character(0)) #

Dear R users, I have started work in a Statistics government department and I am trying to convince my bosses to install R on our computers (I can't do proper stats in Excel!!). They asked me to prove that this is a widely used software (and not just another free-source, bug infected toy I found on the web!) by suggesting other big organisations that use it. Are you aware of any reputable

HI, can anybody help me how to observe or read the output of an r command pagewise? (E.g. to make a break after the first page of output data and then continue by putting a key on the console) Thanks a lot. Oliver [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
