How to control number of significant digits (figures) in y-axis?
Dear R users, I encounter a problem regarding number of significant digits on y-axis. Below is my basic code: myplotkid<-xyplot(expected_offspringnumber~afr|decade,groups=SES,data1, auto.key=list(space="right"),layout=c(9,1),xlab="",ylab="Offspring number", aspect="fill",scales=list(x=list(draw=F)),strip=T) >From this code, you can see there are 9

xyplot: discrete points + continuous curve per panel
I have a number of x, y observations (Time, Conc) for a number of Subjects (with subject number Subj) and Doses. I can plot the individual points with xyplot fine: xyplot(Conc ~ Time | Subj, Groups=Dose, data=myData, panel = function(x,y) { panel.xyplot(x, y) panel.superpose(???) # Needs more here } ) I also like to plot on

Plot title with numeric variables
I am trying to create a plot title in R with substitution by a numeric variable (Figure number N) within the text which is bold and has a subcripted part as well. Here is what I have: title <- expression(bold(paste("Figure ", N, ": Plot ", C[max], " versus CrCL"))) plot(1, main="") # Simple plot for testing N <- 5 mtext(title, line=3, font=2,

xyplot: legend title + legend on 1 line
Does anybody know how in xyplot to put the legend title on one line with the legend? I can get the legend on one line with columns=... but the title is always on top. I tried a custom key with key=... and text=... but I can't put the title text in front of the plotting symbol. I am looking for the following layout of the legend, on one line: "Legend Title:" + plot symbol1 + legend

xyplot: logarithmic y-axis
This should be simple but I am struggling. I like to easily switch in xyplot between a linear or logarithmic y-axis by setting a logical flag logY to False or True. This switch changes the scales argument of xyplot. I found out that the original two-dimentional data (Conc vs Time in my case) are converted to log10(Conc) if log=TRUE in scales, but it appears that functions like panel.curve need to

Reverse order of grouping factor in grouppedData
I created the following groupedData object (nlme library): gd <- groupedData(Conc ~ Time | Subj, order.groups=T, FUN = myf, data=mydata) The idea of the myf function is to reverse the order of the grouping factor Subj (or better, reorder from largest to smallest). In the mydata data set, Subj is an integer that gets converted into a factor in the groupedData object. Does anyone

Why doesn't formatC( x, digits=2, format="g") doesn't always give 2 sig figs?
Hi all I am not a C programmer, but I am trying to understand formatC to get consistent printing of reals to a given number of significant digits. Can someone please explain this to me? These first three give what I expect on reading ?formatC: > formatC(0.0059999, digits=2,format="fg",flag="#") [1] "0.0060" > formatC(0.59999,

Bug/Error in formatC? (Was: Why doesn't formatC( x, digits=2, format= "g")...)

Different gridlines per panel in xyplot
In the example R script below, horizontal gray gridlines are drawn at y coordinates where the points are drawn with the code: panel.abline(h=y, v=xScale, col.line="gray") How do I change this so that the horizontal gray gridlines are drawn at y coordinates where the y labels are drawn? The challenge is that each panel has different y-ranges (in my real example the y-ranges and

unexpected result from format(x, digits)
Is this a bug somewhere? The format function, using a specific number of digits, doesn't give sensible results: R> set.seed(2);print(x<-rexp(5)) [1] 1.86535 0.40475 0.14665 1.73071 0.08953 R> format(x,digits=1) [1] "1.87" "0.40" "0.15" "1.73" "0.09" R> format(x,digits=2) [1] "1.87" "0.40" "0.15"

Printing 2 digits after decimal point
Hi there, i'm not getting along with the following problem. I'd like to print a real number, e.g. x <- 12.3 with exactly two digits after the decimal point, e.g. 12.30 I've tried the whole format(), formatC() and prettyNum() functions but did not have any success with it. This should work with all real numbers, in case even with 0.0 (-> 0.00). For cracks this thing is pretty

How to avoid sort of x values in dotplot?
I am trying to avoid that dotplot sorts my x-values. They are in the correct order in the data.frame and the connections between the x-y values follows this order, but the placement of the x-values on the x-axis is re-ordered. In the following example, the order should be "d1", "d8" and "d15". However, this script places "d8" at the highest x position. Any

how to control significant digits(?) on axis labels
Dear R mailing list I would like some help on how to get R to display the same number of significant digits (?) for *all* tick marks on axis labels (yet be flexible enough to handle different data sets that vary by 10-1000X). Consider this simple example: #---------------------------# x <- seq(0,2,by=0.5) xlim <- range(pretty(x,n=5)) ylim <- xlim

significant digits (PR#9682)
I came to report this same bug and found it already in the trash, but I slightly disagree with that assessment. If it's not a bug, then perhaps it's a feature request. Comments at the end.

ok to use glht() when interaction is NOT significant?
Hi, let's say I have a simple ANOVA model with 2 factors A (level A1 and A2) and B (level B1 and B2) and their interaction: aov(y~A*B, data=dat) It turns out that the interaction term is not significant (e.g. P value = 0.2), but if I used glht() to compare A1 vs. A2 within each level of B, I found that the comparison is not significant when B=B1, but is very significant (P<0.01) when

Wrong computation of time differenze in POSIXct - additional digits
Hello, I wanted to compute the time differenze between to times: first =as.POSIXct( "2012-06-15 16:32:39.0025 CEST") second = as.POSIXct("2012-06-15 16:32:39.0086 CEST") second - first The result is Time difference of 0.006099939 secs instead of just 0.0061 secs So R adds aditional numbers after the result. I know I could round it in this case. But I am working with a

Bug or new concept in formatC?
As a sequel to my previous mail on cut, formatC does not produce what I have been taught is significant digits: > x <- c(1.0793,1.0796, 11.0954, 11.0736 ) > formatC(x,digits=3,format="g") [1] "1.08" "1.08" "11.1" "11.1" (3,3,3,3) significant digits OK > formatC(x,digits=3,format="f") [1] "1.079"
