I would like to use the "row number" information returned from performing a subset command on a dataframe. For example, I would like to automatically delete some rows from a dataframe if they match a criteria. Here is my example below. data(airquality) names(airquality) subset(airquality, airquality$Month == 6) Now how do I delete the row numbers returned automatically? I

Dear r-devel members, It's just been brought to my attention that R permits non-unique column names in data frames -- e.g., via assignment to names() or colnames(). This behaviour is consistent with the help files (as I discovered), but it's not consistent with the behaviour of rownames() and row.names(). For example, row.names(airquality) <- rep("a", nrow(airquality))

Is there a place that shows how to create two plots that are stacked on top of each other where they share a common x-axis scale, but have differnt y-axis scale? Say have the following data: airquality Stack plot(airquality$Day, airquality$Wind) on top of plot(airquality$Day, airquality$Temp). I am interested in stacking the two on top of each other with no seam, or plotting the two lines with

Here is an example where?cbind?fails with an error when?check.names=TRUE?is set. data(airquality) airQualityBind =cbind(airquality,airquality,check.names =TRUE) ?I understand that?cbind?is a call to?data.frame?and the following works: airQualityBind =data.frame(airquality,airquality,check.names =TRUE) but I would like to understand why?cbind?throws an error. I asked this question on SO here:

I would like to add a column to the airquality dataset that contains the date 1950-01-01 in each row. This method does not appear to work: > attach(airquality) > data1 <- transform(airquality,Date=as.Date("1950-01-01")) Error in data.frame(list(Ozone = c(41L, 36L, 12L, 18L, NA, 28L, 23L, 19L, : arguments imply differing number of rows: 153, 1 I can't decipher what

There is a series of data contains time in fixed step and energy varying with time, how to test its periodicity?In R, it seems there is no direct tools since I have search the R manual with periodic and I have not found any related topic. Thanks a lot

Hello Given the following data for a data set called airquality. To identify the nature of the objects from the data set airquality example "Ozone" would it be best to use the command is. like is.character(airquality$Ozone) ....... I tried attributes(airquality$Ozone) but it came up null. Would there be a better way to identify these objects. Thanking you in advance for your

My apologies in advance for my thickness but I can't seem to solve the following, seemingly simple, data manipulation problem: I have a data frame that contains multiple factors and multiple continuous response variables, but duplicates of some factor combinations. The duplicates contain bad data, so I would like to eliminate the duplicates. I would like to retain the entire rows

I think I've gotten my Emacs/Sweave/R system set up correctly, thanks to Vincent and Jim, but I haven't been successful getting my first document produced. I'm trying to use one of Friedrich Leisch's examples, http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~leisch/Sweave/example-1.Snw. I cut and pasted the text into a document sweaveexample.Rnw in Emacs. It seemed to be processed successfully with R:

I have got a data set that is Gross Primary Productivity ~ Total Suspended Solids it is a hyperbola just like: plot(1/c(1:1000)) how do I model this relationship so that I can get all of the neat things that lm gives residuals etc. etc. so that I can see if my eyeball model stands up.

mac osx 10.5.4 R 2.7.1 I have fit a model d<-lm(y~x) with an R^2 of 0.963 but when I issue the command abline(d) the line is below where it ought to be.

##This is a function that I am trying to write to calculate sunrise and sunset and works "mostly", but returns nonsensical values. What am I #missing?

a <- c(1:26) b <- rnorm(25) e <- rnorm(25) f <- rnorm(25) g <- data.frame(b,e, a,f) I would like to plot a agianst all possibilities and then shoot it out to a pdf one graph per page. I think it would be okay to have this as a lattice plot or a ggplot with many graphs per page. I can figure all of that out I think, but I need something like r <- as.matrix(g) plot(.~a, data=r)

Hello list. Maybe this is a simple question but I can't find the answer anywhere. With lm I use the parameter y=TRUE to have the response returned in $y. Of course, namely because of NA's in the data frame, this might not include all the values in the original column. For example: > data(airquality) > length(airquality$Day) [1] 153 > my.lm <- lm(Day~.,data=airquality,y=TRUE)

Dear R-devel list, I realized that removing a predictor in lm through the "-"'s operator in formula() does not affect the complete cases that are considered. A minimal example is: summary(lm(Wind ~ ., data = airquality)) # 42 observations deleted due to missingness summary(lm(Wind ~ . - Ozone, data = airquality)) # still 42 observations deleted due to missingness, even if only 7
