Good morning, I'd like to look at the code for the R function head. When I type just the word head, I get back function(x, ...) UseMethod("head") <environment: namespace:utils> I expected to see several lines of R code. Any suggestions? Thanks, Walt Paczkowski

Dear R Help, I have a set of data of heights of trees described by area that they are in.

I'd like to "step" through 24 histograms by using the return or click button option, as shown in the demo(graphics) demonstration. I've searched for "interactive graphics", and "waiting for page change" in R documentation but with no result. I'm sure that this is a relatively straightforward procedure. Can anyone point me to the correct solution?   Jabez

Dear all, please help with what must be a straightforward question which I can't answer. I add a column of my dataframe as factor of an existing column e.g. df[,5] <- factor(df[,2]) and can test that it is by is.factor() but if I did not know in advance what "types" the columns were, is there a function to tell me what they are. i.e. instead of

Dear list members, I can't figure out how get 'xyplot' or 'dotplot' in the 'lattice' package to respect the 'lwd' value for specifying the border with for *symbols* (for lines it works fine). Example: ----- # Base graphics works fine (gives a 'fat? circle) plot(5, cex=10, pch=21, lwd=10) # But 'xyplot' or 'dotplot' doesn't

Hello everyone, I'm running the following for loop to generate random variables in chunks of 60 at a time (l), here h is of order in millions (could be 5 to 6 millions), note that generating all the variables at once could have an impact on the final results for(j in 1:h){ dat$t.o[seq(0,g1,l)[j]+1:l]<-dat$mu[seq(0,g1,l)[j]+1:l] + rnorm(l,0,dat$g.var[seq(0,g1,l)[j]+1:l]) } Is there any

I believe I have found a bug (or at least a misfeature) in plot.POSIXct. See the following example code. set.seed(1) x=seq(1,1e8,length=100)+round(runif(100)*1e8) y=as.POSIXct(x,origin="2001-01-01") plot(y) This plots some random (date)times against their indices. The y axis correctly shows appropriate values (years), but the x axis contains the single number '59:58' in the

Dear list members, I recall seeing a convenience function for applying multiple functions to one object (i.e., almost the opposite of 'mapply?) somewhere. Example: If the function was named ?fun? the output of fun(3.14, mode, typeof, class) would be identical to the output of c(mode(3.14), typeof(3.14), class(3.14)) Is my memory failing me, or does such a function already exists in a

R version 2.7.0 RC (2008-04-20 r45403) When using semi-transparent filled plotting symbols, the border of the symbol has a different (darker) colour than the interior: plot(0, 0, pch=19, col="#FF000022") (Saving this as a PDF and looking at it magnified may make it easier to see.) This is pretty annoying, since when plotting partially overlapping points, the border colour dominates,

Dear All, I am struggling with extracting data from a data frame: x=data.frame(a=1:11,b=100:110) What I want is a list/vector in this sence: 1 100 2 101 3 102... For single rows, this works fine: as.matrix(x)[1,] For, say 2 rows, this works fine: z=c(as.matrix(x)[1,],as.matrix(x)[2,]) But z=c(as.matrix(x)[1:2,]) gives 1 2 100 101!? Is there an 'automated way' to produce a

A seemingly simple problem has me stumped. Is it possible to choose the number of colour breaks for a gradient scale in the current version of ggplot2? Here is a simple example: --------------------------------------------- x=-10:10 y=-10:10 dat=expand.grid(x=x,y=y) dat$z=dat$x^2+dat$y^2-100 ggplot(dat, mapping=aes(x=x, y=y, fill=z)) + geom_tile() + scale_fill_gradient2()

There are a number of functions that are dispatched to from split(). > methods('split') [1] split.data.frame split.Date split.default split.POSIXct Is there a way to figure out which of these variants is actually dispatched to when I call split? I know that if the argument is of the type data.frame, split.data.frame will be called? Is it the case that if the argument is not

Hi! Is it possible to have different axis limit for each facet in a ggplot2 plot? Here is an example: -------------------------------------------------------------- library(ggplot2) x=seq(-10,10,.1) y=cos(x) z=sin(x)*10 dat=melt(data.frame(x,y,z), id.var="x") qplot( x, value, data=dat, facets=variable~., geom="line" )

I'm having a problem where I have to apply a function to a subset of a variable, where the subset is defined by the n nearest neighbours of a second variable. Here's an example applied to the 'iris' dataset: $ head(iris) Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4

Dear list members I'm using CairoPDF to generate PDF (because of its font embedding and support for transparent colours). However, at least on my (Windows) system, the text it outputs seems to have completely wrong kerning. Here's an example: CairoPDF("test.pdf") plot(rnorm(100),xlab="Ovreset") dev.off() The v is (slightly) too far away from the O, it's much

I'm using the 'cloud' function in the 'lattice' package to produce multi-panel 3D scatter plots. The range of the values used vary much between each panel (especially on the z axis), so I wish the axis limits to be calculated based on the (conditional) data. Here's a minimal example: library(lattice) z=1:200 x=runif(200) y=runif(200) s=factor(rep(c(1,2),each=100))

When discussing statistics in e-mail based discussion groups, or in newsgroups, it is sometimes useful to include simple, text-based statistical graphics. Here is an example, a histogram (only useful with a fixed-width font, obviously). :..... ..:::::::::. .:::::::::::::::
