similar to: one long column of data -> three small columns

hello folks, Im trying to clean out a large file with data i dont need. The column im manipulating in the file is called "legal_status" There are three kinds of rows i want to remove. Those that have "Private", "Private (Op", or "Unknown" in the legal_status column. I wrote this code but i get errors and it says im missing a TRUE/ False thingy...im

i just found the following list, i wondered if anybody could add to this as i have to characterize a large data set and am new to R...the list below was so helpful....can you add to this??? Just to forestall confusion amongst those who would like to use one of the functions called "describe"... Hmisc package - describe numeric name count of observations count of missing

I want to go through a column in data called date_abandoned....data["date_abandoned"]....and remove all the rows that have numbers greater than 1,010,000. The dates are in the format 20091114 so i'm just going to treat them as numbers for clean up purposes. I know that i use subset but not sure how to proceed from there. -- View this message in context:

if ive got an incomplete data set thats got thousands of rows and 80 columns with random missing fields...like this say... 3 b 3 4 1 1 x 2 ? how do i turn it into.... 3 b 3 4 missing 1 1 x 2 ...i.e., i want to insert the word "missing" into the fields that are empty? -- View this message in context:

can you do Logistic regression in R, if so how do you do it and how do you test the fit of a model? -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Logistic-regression-tp1059870p1059870.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Ive got a big column of dates (also some fields dont have a date so they have NA instead), that i have converted into date format as so... dates<-as.character(data[,"date_commissioned"]); # converted dates to characters dates[1:10] [1] "19910101" "19860101" "19910101" "19860101" "19910101" "19910101" "19910101"

I have 20 columns of data, and in column 5 I have a value of 17600 but I dont know which row this value is in (i have over 300,000 rows). I'm trying to do 2 things: 1) I want to find out which row in column 5 has this number in it. 2) Then I want to print out that row with all the column headers so i can look at the other parameters in the row that are associated with this value. How do i

Please help me persuade IT to install R on my computer! All suggestions welcome. Our IT department run scared when you mention software that they have no working experience of. I need to know the pros and cons of having R on corporate desktops. Please no funny stuff, this is quite a serious issue for us. Pros and cons would be good. Thanks. -- View this message in context:

Hello R-helpers I want to put a color scale in a plot: I've got an xy plot where the values of the response (z=f(x,y)) is symbolically given by colors (like heat or rainbow color scale) I would like to put such a scale with apprpriates labels in the plot, so as to facilitate the interpretation (like in a finite elements result plot) How is taht possible? Thanks Anne [[alternative

Is it possible to create a contour plot with the isolines labeled. I know you can do this with Matlab. Argh! I tried creating a filled contour plot, then using par(new=T), followed by overlaying the contour plot on top. However, the placement of the filled contour plot and the contour plot do not align correctly. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Jon -- View this message in

Hi, I would like to add contour lines to a (trellis/lattice-) levelplot. Sure, there is the "contour=TRUE" argument, but this uses "cuts=..." (which is usually chosen very high for my plots. I guess cuts=99 is the best you can do (?)) for plotting the contour lines. Furthermore, I do not like the numbering of the contour lines this way. Therefore, I tried to add a

Hi everyone, I hope this question is beyond "read the manual". My task is simple, just to plot the following, but the plot in the middle should be a filled.contour plot: http://gallery.r-enthusiasts.com/graph/Scatterplot_with_marginal_histograms_78 Background: I prefer filled.contour rather than hist2d. Because, I could use kernel smooth, so the plot for discrete data won't be too

Hi all, Does anybody know how to add contour lines to a filled contour plot? I want to draw a single contour around values that are above a certain level (e.g., significant). The problem I'm having is that since the filled.contour command actually draws two plots (data and the key), adding contour lines paints them over both plots. Any suggestions? Thanks, Andy #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello, I would like to make a contourplot of the following data; > x <- 1:10 > y <- 1:10 > z <- 100:110 By doing >contour(x,y,z) I get the following error; "Error in contour.default(x, y, z) : no proper `z' matrix specified" How do I fix this??

Hi R-Help, I would like to make filled contour maps of ocean data overlaid by costlines from the map package. I can draw the filled contours and the coastlines om the same plot, but the filled contour also covers part of the land. To get rid of that I tried to draw a filled coastline map on top of the filled contour, but the filled map only draws the closed contours - so most of the land is

Greetings, I have what I hope is a simple question. I would like to change my contour interval on the vis.gam( plot.type="contour") in the mgcv package. Is this a situation where I need to modify the function or is there a default value I can change? Thanks

Hi all, I'm trying to draw a contour plot with rounded (smoothed) contour lines instead of sharp angles; when the grid consists of only a few points in x- and y- axis, the resulting contour is in facts rather ugly since very sharp angles may appear. I did not find any way to do it, by using either "contour" or "contourplot" (from the lattice package), I wonder if there
