Hello, I have a data frame consisting of four columns and would like to sort based on the first column and then write the sorted data frame to a file. > df <- read.table("file.txt", sep="\t") where file.txt is simply a tab-delimited file containing 4 columns of data (first 2 numeric, second 2 character). I then do, > df_ordered <- df[order(df$V1), ] OR,

I am not new to R, but I am new to .grib files. I am downloading some climate data and I would like to analyze it in R. R has a nice netcdf package, but I don?t see any package available to deal specifically with grib files. I see a few posts from other people using grib files in R. However, I was unclear if they used grib files in a different software program and then imported the data

What is the recommended way of requiring a certain version when loading a package (or, indeed, from R itself)? Perl has the require module version use module version require version use version constructs which is kind of what I am looking for (especially 'use' which is evaluated at compile time), but R seems to have lost the version= argument to require(). The best I have been able

hi I've used R for many years on windows machines, but have now acquired an Asus eee 1000 linux machine. In order to get the best out of the machine, I used the 'pimpmyeee.sh' script, to get the full KDE desktop.

Hi I implemented the age-structure model in Gove et al (2002) in R, which is a nonlinear statistical model. However running the model in R was very slow. So Dave Fournier suggested to use the AD Model Builder Software package and helped me implement the model there. ADMB was incredibly fast in running the model: While running the model in R took 5-10 minutes, depending on the

Dear all, I'm working with satellite images in R and plotting them via the code below.

In this script; spatial["x"] & spatial["y"] are the centre coordinates of the satellite image pixels. I'm asking this because some
