Hi, I have been using 'read.table' regularly to read tab-delimited text files with data. No problem, until now. Now I have a file that appeared to have read fine, and the data inside looks correct (structure etc), except I only had 15000+ rows out of the expected 24000. Using 'readLines' instead, and breaking up the data by tabs, gives me the expected result. I do not

I'm trying something that I thought would be pretty simple, but it's proving quite frustrating... I want to display, for instance, the correlation coefficient "rho" in a graph. I can do something like: text(x, y, paste("rho =", cor)) where cor would be my previously calculated correlation coefficient, and x and y the coordinates. Obviously that displays

Hi, after reading about it in the forum, I tried the Tinn-R editor (in WinXP) running R 2.5.0... nice one! However, I am trying to change the syntax-colouring from the default to my own preferences... and I can do that, but my options don't appear to be saved and get lost when I close Tinn-R. I've searched help menus, and google... and I can't find how to make sure my

Hello list, I use R for microarray analysis. One procedure I use takes a large matrix, and loops through it looking for specific rows, does an operation with them, and outputs a result (single row) as a row of another matrix. The loop goes on about 25000 times. When I run the loop directly from the R console itself, it takes about 3 minutes in my computer. I'm ok with that. Now,

Dear all, Thank you for any help. I have a data.frame and would like to plot it in 3D. I have tried wireframe() and cloud(), I got scatterplot3d(xs) Error: could not find function "scatterplot3d" > wireframe(xs) Error in wireframe(xs) : no applicable method for "wireframe" > persp(x=x, y=y, z=xs) Error in persp.default(x = x, y = y, z = xs) : (list)

Hello all, I know this is a pretty easy question but I can't find it in S poetry or R help. How can I make a negative number positive. Such as -5 to be +5 I tried +(-5), but that didn't work. So no, I don't mean taking a -5^2 just to get a positive number. This is in a function so it's not just -5 it's x. :) Thanks, Paul -- Research Technician Mass Spectrometry o The

I have seen that the hist() function plots an histogram of the frequency but I cannot find the value of the object hist that contains theese values... how is possible to get out them? thank you very mutch best regards Manuele -- Manuele Pesenti manuele a inventati.org amicogodzilla a jabber.linux.it http://mpesenti.polito.it

Hello all Is there a way reducing the number of characters in a list so that just the left n numbers of characters is given? For example, If I have a list, listnames, which consists of 4 strings of 6 characters; >listnames [1] "item12" "item34" "item56" "item78" Is there a way to reduce this so only the 5 characters on the lefthand side are

To whom it may concern, I want to plot two or more graphics in the same window by the means of the "plot" command. To do that, I have tried the "add=TRUE" option, but this last one does not work! Do you have an hint for me please? Thank you very much for your attention. Bernard Colin Departement of Mathematics Faculty of Sciences Sherbrooke University Sherbrooke (Quebec)

Dear All, I am using the following commands to do the scatter plot of two vectors, say X and Y. plot(X,Y, col="blue") abline(a=1,b=1, col="red") abline(a=-1,b=1, col="green") I would like to split the scatter plot into 3 part with 3 different colors: (i) points lies between 2 lines, (ii) points above line 1, and (iii) points below line 2. I am struggling to do

Hello, I have been using scatter.smooth and been trying to format my plots and been unable to adjust the line type or color of the smooth curve. When I specify col in scatter.smooth, I can adjust the color of the scatter plot points, but the line always stays black and solid. lty has no effect. When I specify par prior to calling scatter.smooth, col will change the color of the points,

Hi, I have been trying many of the suggested options to place a legend outside plotting area, including something like this: par(xpd=T, oma=par()$oma+c(4.5,0,1.5,0),mar=par()$mar+c(1,0,1,0) But the aspect of the four plots gets compromised when I change the margin settings. I cannot use mtext because I need to use colors for the text. I tried layout, but wouldn't let me include

Dear all, I have a question about limmaGUI that is usually run in R environment. My problem is loading data into the programm. I have 6 gpr files that apparently are not compatible with limma. Everytime I'm trying to load the data (including a RNA targets file, an error appears:Error reading files. that I'm not sure,but seems to have something to do with the format of my files

I have been searching for the R manual, unable to solve my problem. Questions 1) How can I put the x axis at the top of the plot? 2) I am plotting data from a CTD. I want to add series sal, obs and fluo at the same plot by using points(sal,deepth) ets. The data have different values so I want to use multiple x axis (4) with different scaling. How can I do that?

Hello. I have a 2d plot which looks like this: http://www.nabble.com/file/8242/1.JPG This plot is derived from a file that holds statistics about each point on the plot and looks like this: a b c d e a 0 0.498 0.473 0.524 0.528 b 0.498 0 0 0 0 c 0.473 0

Hi All, Apologies for the simplicity of my question, but I would be grateful for any advice. Thanks I'm trying to put the output from a for loop into a data frame, however I have not been successful. The steps I have taken are: *R-code:* >for (k in 1:(nt-1-n0) ){ > n<- n0-1+k > lam=n/nt > Q=x[n] > output1<-data.frame(cbind(k,n,lam,Q)) > output1 > }

I am trying to do what is perhaps the most basic procedure which can be done with the R software. Under Windows XP Home Edition, I want to get a copy of the function "gam," then put it in and use it. I intentionaly use informal terms, rather than technical terms whose exact meaning I might or might not know. I am finding this extremely frustrating. Every time I try to do anything,

Hi everyone, is there a way/package in R that would allow me to select a group of points from a scatterplot by drawing a circle around them or some such? I can use 'identify' to pick individual points, but that gets tedious if one has more than 10-20 spots. I can easily select spots within a rectangle defined by picking points using identify... but a simple rectangle sometimes will
