Hi, I want to construct a list as Lst <- list(name_1=object_1, ..., name_m=object_m) If name_1 is a variable with value "NAME1", how can I ask R to use "NAME1" instead of 'name_1' as the name of the list element? Thanks! Yupu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am getting the following error in my script. I am very very new to R and have obtained this script from another person. #read file in (dummy data) starburst.plot<-function(affy.fold, affy.FDR)(ifelse( ((affy.fold) >=0), -1*log10(affy.FDR), 1*log10(affy.FDR))) starburst.plot<-function(meth.fold, meth.FDR)(ifelse( ((meth.fold) >=0), -1*log10(meth.FDR), 1*log10(affy.FDR))) At my next

Dear R-users/helpers, Does anyone tell me how to retrieve the data frame column names? I'm working on coxph model to analyze survival data of Affy DNA chips. I get the coxph coef p-value for each probe and want output the probe name with the p-value. The probe names are the data frame column names. How can I do this? Thanks for your help. Guangchun

Hi, I decided to upgrade to 1.8 today... :-) Anyway, we are writing our own package that is dependent on a bioconductor library - 'affy'. I've checked and when I fire up R, library(affy) behaves as expected... so it all seems to be installed and OK... In the DESCRIPTION file in my package source I have the line: Depends: affy When I run R CMD check simpleaffy I get to: ... *

Hello all, I am trying to make a genome association plot for p-values related to SNPs and was fortunate to find that R contains a package that produces Manhattan plots which is what's preferred for my current project. The function mhtplot() is found in the 'gap' package which I installed in R 2.11.1 on Windows. I thought I'd test out the function first with the examples they

I have run into a problem loading a just saved R object using R-devel. I have been saving and loading this particular type of R object for a long while and never ran into this problem. I save, then immediately reload (to test save) and get "ReadItem: unnknown type 65". This error is reproducible after logout from server and restart of emacs and R. Below is my output and

Hi, I have been using the prcomp function to perform PCA on my example microarray data, (stored in metric text files) which looks like this: 1a 1b 1c 1d 1e 1f ...................................................4r 4s 4t g1 1.2705 1.2766 ...........................................................2.0298 g2 0.1631

Hi R-ers, I am struggling with my x-axis in a association plot. What I would like is to place the labels of the x-axis between the tick markers and normally the labels are printed at the place where the tick marker is placed. I don???t want to move the tick marker (it gives the switch between one chromosome and the next) but I just want to put the chromosome number in between the

Hi, all. Something strange happened to my ESS. I use Mac OS X. When R is used in stand alone mode, it recognizes external libraries like "affy", "e1071" etc. However, when R is invoked through ESS in Emacs, it produces errors like: Error in library(affy) : There is no package called 'affy' Interestingly, I remember I successfully used these libraries through ESS in

Dear list, I?m using R embedded in another program (coded in tcl/tk) under Windows Vista. In this context I don?t launch Rgui.exe but rather Rtem.exe. Now I have a problem finding libraries not specifically installed as administrator (and which are not in the path ?program files? but in Contacts\Documents of the current user). To be precise, the user launching my tcl/tk program can?t find

Running R2.4.0 on Apple Mac OS X 10.4.8, in Emacs ESS mode, and also R.app. In an attempt to learn a bit more about a particular method (geneNames in package affy) I invoked getMethods("geneNames") which produced geneNames methods, but not the one in affy (output below). I had to know the signature (AffyBatch) in order to find the method > getMethod("geneNames",

Hi, I am new to Linux and have a linux machine running ubuntu (hardy heron). I installed R 2.9.1 using the deb file provided on the R website. However I can't install 'affy' - one of the R packages and apparently this is because of the lib settings. I've tried to install R using the command line but I can't add: deb http://cran.uk.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu hardy to my

Hello, I have a problem with read.affy.mixed function. I want to read in together a set of CEL files from chip types Affymettrix HGU133A_2 and HGU133_Plus_2.

Dear All, There is a question I met when using Affy package in Bioconductor. I asked it in BioC and didn't get any responses. Sorry to post again: Could anyone tell me how to draw a deep-blue Affymetrix image through Image() function in Affy package? The default settings of image() draw me a black-white image and if I modify it to 256 colors, I get a somehow yellowish image. The reason

Dear All, I have built a package which has a data.frame "annotIndex.rda in its "data" folder. I am using this data frame within two functions in my package. Though my package works fine, yet when I do a R CMD check to my package I get the following two notes get.affy.ensembl: no visible binding
