matching elements from two vectors
Hi,
Imagine a vector x with elements (1,2,1,1,3,5,3,3,1) and a vector y with
elements (2,3). I need to find out what elements of x match any of the
elements of y.
Is there a simple command that will return a vector with elements
(F,T,F,F,T,F,T,T,F). Ideally, I would like a solution that works with
dataframe colums as well.
I have tried x==y and it doesn't work.
x==any(y) doesn't work

change object name within for loop
Hi,
I am writing a for loop that creates one object, say 'outn' on every
round of the loop. I would like the name of each object to include the
index of the loop as in, for example:
out1, out2, out3, ...
And I would like the naming of the object to take place automatically
as the loop moves through?
Similarly, I would like to be able to call different objects (in1,

finding the row(s) for a date in a data frame

Accessing selected elements of a list
Hi,
If I have a vector:
junk <- c(2,0,0,3,0)
and want to access, say, all the elements that are greater than zero. I just do:
junk[which(junk>0)]
Now, If I have a list:
jlist <- list(NULL,c(1,0),NULL,c(1,2,3), NULL)
and want to access all the elements that have length greater than zero, I know how to find the elements with:
which(sapply(jlist,length)>0)
But how do I get a

overlaying 2D grid on randomly distributed points
Hi, I have a cloud of randomly distributed points in 2-dimensional space and want to set up a grid, with a given grid-cell size, that minimizes the distance between my points and the grid nodes. Does anyone know of an R function or toolbox that somehow addresses this problem? This is a problem of optimizing the location of the grid, not a problem of deciding what should be the grid-cell size,

joining matrices, vectors, scalars in one object
Hi,
I have:
a <- matrix(c(0,1,0,1),nrow=2)
b <- matrix(c(1,1,1,0,0,0),nrow=3)
c <- 1
d <- c(1,0,1)
And I would like to join them in an object 'thing' so that I can
access a, b, c, or d through an index in a for loop.
For example:
thing[4]
would return
[1] 1 0 1
Note however, that I have many of these 'thing' components. So many

Density function: Area under density plot is not equal to 1. Why?
Hi, I have a vector 'data' of 58 probability values (bounded between 0 and 1) and want to draw a probability density function of these values. For this, I used the commands:
data <- runif(58)
a <- density(data, from=0, to=1)
plot(a, type="l",lwd=3)
But then, when I try to approximate the area under the plotted curve with the command:
area <- sum(a$y)*(a$x[1]-a$y[2])

finding row and column indices of date in multiple columns of a data frame
Hi,
I have a data.frame SAMPLES with columns:
Site Site# Season Day1 Day2 Day3
Day1, Day2, Day3 are class "Date", the other columns are numeric or
factor.
I have a date "mydate" that may or may not be listed in my data.frame
and I need to find that out.
If "mydate" is there, I want to get the number of the data.frame row
where it occurs.

calling a list element from a list name passed to a function
Hi,
'true_name' is a list of numerical, matrix, and text items
I do
pass_name <- "true_name"
and pass the name of the list to a function so that the character
class variable 'passed_name' contains the name of the list called
'true_name'
Inside the function, how can I get a specified element from the list?
For example, if I want to get

locating minimum value in matrix
Hi,
I have a matrix BEE and want to find the row and column numbers of
the minimum value in that matrix.
The command
which(BEE==min(BEE))
returns only one value which, I take, is the position of the minimum
in a vector with as many elements as the matrix.
Is there a quick and simple way of getting row and column numbers?
Thanks,

clipping off words inside a vector of strings

I have a vector of strings (class character) with 6 elements (length
6). I call it 'names'.
"Graham Chapman"
"John Cleese"
"Terry Gilliam"
"Eric Idle"
"Terry Jones"
"Michael Palin"
And I want to turn it into another vector of strings called
'shortnames' with the same length.
The new vector should look like:

writing text and output to file with flexibility

The dimensions of matrices A, B, ... are different and the total

simulating outcomes - categorical distribution (?)
Hi,
I am simulating an event that has 15 possible outcomes and I have a
vector 'pout' that gives me the probability of each outcome -
different outcomes have different probabilities. Does anyone know a
simple way of simulating the outcome of my event?
If my event had only two possible outcomes (0/1) I would pick a
uniform random number between 0 and 1 and use it to choose between the

"table(droplevels(aq)$Month)" in manual page of droplevels
The last line of the example in droplevels' manual page seems to be incorrect to me. I think it should read: "table(droplevels(aq$Month))". Amazingly (I don't understand) both variants seem to produce the same result (R 3.3.3):

Plotting Time Series Data by Month
Hi,
I have a dataset which includes monthly data for 17 years. I want to be able
to see the monthly data behavior for the period of all 17 years.
What my data looks like:

I would like to represent the data in a graph such as the one below:

I would like to do some spreadsheet style expansion of dates. For
example, I would need to obtain a vector of months. I approached in an
obviously wrong way:

Constructing dummy variables for months for a time series object
I have a TS of monthly observations.

Now I want to make 11 dummy variables indicating months. Therefore I did followings :
For Jan :

For Feb :
rep(c(rep(0,1), 1, rep(0, 10)), 17)
