second axis title orientation
Hi, I have added a second y-axis via axis() to a plot. Then I tried to add an y axis title. But the axis() function seems to have no argument like ylab. and if I add a title with title() the text is centered at the first axis, not the second defined one. Is there a way to add an axis-title that orientates it's position at the last defined axis?

changing a range of values
Hi, If I have following vector; x <- c(1,1,1,2,2,3,4,4,5) and I want to change values in the range of 1 to 3 into the value 1, how can I do that? I tried x[x == c(1:3)] <- c(1) but than I get; x [1] 1 1 1 2 1 1 4 4 5 R doesn't change the 2 into a 1. But why?

counting the frequencies of a vector
Hi, Is there a function which counts the frequencies of the occurence of a number within an interval? for example I have this vector: x <- c(1, 3, 1.2, 5, 5.9) and I want a vector that gives me the frequencies within an interval of 2, beginning at 0 (so the intervals are 0-2, 2-4, 4-6 and so on) so I get these frequencies: 2, 1, 2 Which functions do I have to use for this purpose?

converting multiple variable numbers
thanks for the great help! But I have one additional question (hope I can work alone then); I want to replace the values of a vector, like this: x <- c(1,2,2,3,3,4,4,4,5,1) x[x==1] <- c(12) x[x==2] <- c(13) x[x==3] <- c(17) x[x==4] <- c(20) x[x==5] <- c(22) is there a way to do that just in one or two code lines? I tried x[x == c(1:5)] <- c(12,13,17,20,22) but that

data.frame: how to extract parts
Hi, I have a problem with the R syntax. It's perhaps pretty simple, but I don't understand it ... I can extract a column from a data.frame with the following code for example ... b$row1[b$row1 == "male"] so I see all male-entries. But I cannot extract all lines of a data.frame depending on this criterium; only.male <- b[b$row1 == "male"] With that, I

axis label config mgp
I have long axis labels (8units) on the x axis and 2 unit number labels on the y axis. I need to move the x axis title without moving the y axis title. I have used mgp=c(title, label and line), but mgp moves both the x and y titles. The following puts the y axis title way way out to the left. Anyone know how to move just the x axis.

axis labels in multiple plots
Hi, I'am trying to make a multiple bar plot over a map and I'm having difficulties with the distance between axes labels and the axis. Trying to control this with mgp does not help because it controls both axes simultaneously. For example, with default values (mgp = c(3, 1, 0)) y-axis labels are ok, but x-axis labels are not. Setting mgp = c(3, 0, 0) gives good x-axis labels but the

Rotated, Right-Justified Labels for Shortened Tick Marks
Hello R-help, I'm trying to make a fairly simple plot axis that goes something like this: plot(-10:10,-10:10, yaxt='n') axis(side=2, las=1, hadj=1, tck=-.01, cex.axis=.6) ...but as you can see, the labels are not close enough to the y-axis (where I want them... to save space for publication). Can anybody help me figure out how to move these labels over the the right a bit?

manipulating axis labels in grid and lattice
I am trying to use wireframe at the moment and the axis labels are overlapping with the tick labels. It seems that gpar does not yet utilize the mgp argument. Is there anyway to manipulate the position of the axis labels? The best I can manage so far is to manipulate the cex so as to shrink everything down. thanks, Carlo Maley -- Dr. Carlo C.

Plot: Distance between tick and tick label on y-axis
Hello, I want to reduce the distance between my ticks and their labels. I managed to do it for the x-axis, but the y-axis puzzles me. Here's an example where there is no space between the x-asix ticks and labels. par(las=1) plot(runif(50), type="l",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="", bty="l") axis(2) axis(1,padj=-1.5) #However, axis(2,padj=-1.5)
