Hi, I have a frame "treat" and want to find matched pairs in the data frame "control". In the matched (combined) data frame there should be two variables (0/1),indicating the "source" of the data (treat or control), so that it is possibe to set a "filter" (extraxt/select data). #Here are the dataframes (my real data frames have many variables) treat <-

Dear List, I need a barplot with vertical bars. Each bar should have a label. The problem is, that the labels are too long, so they overlap, or only every seccond label is displayed in the output. Here is a little syntax: dd <- c(100,110,90,105,95) barplot(dd,names.arg=c('Conduct Disorders','Attention Deficit', 'Eating Disorders',

I've found the following strange behaviour R (RStudio) which has been confirmed by another user in RGui. Inside a script I want to set two variables: default.wd = getwd() tmp.wd = setwd(choose.dir()) After choosing tmp.wd the value of default.wd is shown in Workspace, but getwd() is giving back the correct string of tmp.wd. Is there a workaround for the problem? I'm working on

Dear friends - windows R 3.3.3 - sorry to ask a simple question - but I cannot make setwd work properly in scripts In the example below I have made a directory in C (firstdir) and a directory in that (secdir) and the intention is to change directory to the second from the first - it works when I put the entire path but not the tilde - what am I missing? I was around rwf 2.14 as per the help

Dear list, I have a problem with freq from prettyR. Please have a look at my syntax with a litte example: library(prettyR) #Version 1 test.df<-data.frame(q1=sample(1:4,8,TRUE), gender=sample(c("f","m"),8,TRUE)) test.df freq(test.df) #No error message #Version 2 test.df<-data.frame(gender=sample(c("f","m"),8,TRUE), q1=sample(1:4,8,TRUE)) test.df

In my .Rprofile I have the following functions which display the current directory in the main R window title bar, and modify base::setwd() to keep this up to date. I like this because I can always tell where I am in the file system. cd <- function(dir) { base::setwd(dir) utils::setWindowTitle( short.path(base::getwd()) ) } short.path <- function(dir, len=2) { np

AFAIK a script run through source() does not have any legit way to learn about it's own location. I need this to make sure that the script will find its datafiles after I move the whole directory. (The datafiles are in the same directory.) Here is a hack I invented to work around it: print(getwd()) source_pathname = get("ofile",envir = parent.frame()) source_dirname =

# Dear list, # I am an R-beginner and # spent the last days looking for a method to insert tables produced # with R into a word document. I thought about SPPS: copy a table from # an SPO-file and paste it into a word document # (if needed do some formatting with that table). # Annother idea was, to produce a TEX-file, # insert it and make it a word-table. # I found the following libraries, which

[Env: Win XP, R 2.14.2, R 2.15.0] I have a replacement function for setwd() in my .Rprofile which displays the current R path in the R window title. It no longer works in R 2.15.x, giving the error below. Worse, the error prevents the rest of my .Rprofile script from completing. Is there some way to rescue this, i.e., preserve this behavior in R 2.15? If not, how can I modify my script so it

Dear Sir or Madam: This is an extension to a earlier post, about looping through several thousand files, and testing student's models against a different data-set, called rclnow, for "recall now". The problem is, that the instructor never specified to the students, what they should name their "lm" object. So what they created was: "arbitrary variable name"

In my .Rprofile for Windows, I had the following functions defined to mirror a few features I miss from linux: (a) replace setwd() with a version that stashes the current directory so it can be easily restored (b) writes a short version of the current R directory to the Windows title bar: I can always see where I am, with multiple Rgui windows. (c) creates a cd() shorthand for setwd(), but

Hello, I got some of the R source code and not being able to Run it in RStudio. I get the error: Error in setwd("dir") : cannot change working directory I have gone through forums but nothing seemed relevant to my issue. What bugs me the most is the ("dir") that the error shows, is of those who wrote the source code and not mine(it still sees the directory of their

Dear List, Say I can use getwd() and setwd() to change my working directory. How can I read in all the files within that directory using command line (like a ls() but for the path specified) Regards Ajay Websites- Technology http://decisionstats.com On Wed, Jul 4, 2012 at 3:30 PM, <r-help-request@r-project.org> wrote: > r-help@r-project.org [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear list readers, I want to: 1.

Delete some variables from a data frame or exclude variables from beeing analyzed. 3. Create a text file / redirect the terminal output to a

Hi, I've been trying to set the directory for choose.files as follows: [R2.9.0 running on XP] setwd("C:/Documents and Settings/2/Data") getwd() infile2 = choose.files(filters = Filters[c("txt","All"),], caption = "Choose ECD datafile") #<...do a bunch of stuff...> It appears the working directory isn't updated until after choose.files()

Hello, I would like to run some code in parallel with each cluster reading/writing to a different working directory. I've tried the following code without success. The error I get is: "Error in setwd(x) : cannot change working directory" library(parallel) dirs <- list("out1","out2","out3") # these directories are located within the current

Hello, and Happy New Year. My default working directory is getting very cluttered. I know that I should be using a different working directory for each project (I work in Windows), but do not know how to go about creating different ones and moving back and forth between them. I have read Venables & Ripley (Modern Applied Statistics with S-PLUS, 1994) but this seems out of date with respect

Hi, I am a newbie to R, just trying to switch from Splus. I am wondering to know if there is any such command in R as "attach" in Splus which can be used to attach the full directory. Also, any idea/referrence about, how to load c functions in R would be highly appreciated. Thanks, Utsav
