similar to: plot.ts versus plot.zoo

I cannot figure out how to tune the minor tic marks on the date axis of a zoo plot. I read hundreds of CSV files from a zip archive transparently. The time/date strings I convert to POSIXct format, order them and then make a zoo object as there may be cases which have unequal time stamping. As follows: ###################### #Transform timestamps and reorder them dat <- transform(dat,

Reading a flat text file 138 Mbyte large into R with a combination of scan (to get the header) and read.table. After conversion of text time stamps to POSIXct and conversion of integer codes to factors I convert everything into one data frame and release the old structures containing the data by using rm(). Strangely, the rm() does not appear to reduce the used memory. I checked using

I have to decode raw vectors read from a connection like this: +++++++++++++++++++ fl<-file.choose() fb<-file.info(fl)$size fc<-file(fl) open(fc,open='rb') seek(fc,where=offset) dat<-readBin(fc,'raw',n=(fb-offset),size=1,signed=FALSE) close(fc) ++++++++++++++++++ The decoding performs a combination of a simple bitwise operator and a simple arithmatic operator on

Is there a way to make any of the write functions (.table or .csv) append to the same file? I get this warning message and do not know how to enable the appending. Warning messages: 1: In write.csv(names(Lbys)[c], fo, append = TRUE) : attempt to set 'append' ignored 2: In write.csv(Lbys[[c]], fo, append = TRUE) : attempt to set 'append' ignored Regards, Alex van der Spek

panel.lmline returns intercept and slope of y ~ x subsetted to the combination of conditioning factors given to xyplot in lattice. for instance: xyplot(Xvalues ~ log(Qvalues)|Tfac, data = df7, panel = panel.lmline) I am looking to find the equivalent formulation for lm() proper. If I do this: lmcal <- lm(Xvalues ~ log(Qvalues):Tfac, data = df7) Only one value of the intercept is returned.

Hello everyone, a problem with the plot.zoo function. In the parameters of the function, cex.lab is ignored. I tried to reduce the size of the yaxis labels by at least 50%. ------------------ Example: sample <- as.zoo(EuStockMarkets) par(las=1) plot.zoo(sample, plot.type="multiple", main="Time Series", xlab="Date", yaxt="n", cex.lab=0.5,

Dear all, I have a large vector (lets call it myVector) and I want to plot its value with the logic below yaxis<-myVector[1] yaxis<-c(xaxis,mean(myvector[2:3]) yaxis<-c(xaxis,mean(myvector[4:8]) yaxis<c(xaxis,mean(myvector[9:16]) yaxis<c(xaxis,mean(myvector[17:32]) this has to stop when the new ..... yaxis<c(xaxis,mean(myvector[1024:2048]) will not find the correspondent number

Hi, I am trying to plot odds ratios and the corresponding confidence intervals in horizontal segments. It would be ideal if the confidence interval segment can be drawn with little vertical bars at both ends. I have tried very hard to change the type of ends by using 'lend' arguments, but cannot make it. I even tried 'arrows()', but still failed. Following is the code I use:

hej there I want to invert the yaxis as follows: x<-rnorm(1:50) plot(x^2, type="h", ylim=c(0,10)) plot(x^2, type="h", ylim=c(10,0)) then doing the following it won't work - kind of strange isn't it? x.zoo<-zoo(x^2) plot(x.zoo, type="h", ylim=c(10,0)) plot(x.zoo, type="h", ylim=c(0,10)) how can I invert the axis with zoo objects?

I use by() to generate a summary statistics like so: Lbys <- by(dat[Nidx], dat$LipTest, summary) where Nidx is an index vector with names picking out the columns in the data frame dat. This returns a list of character arrays (see below for str() output) where the columns are named correctly but the rownames are empty strings and the values are strings prepended with the summary

I have some code as shown below. Basically, I would like three boxplots to be set next to each other with no ylabels on the two "inner" plots, and I want the same x axis range on all three. However, it seems like boxplot does not respect the xlim setting. I've tried the various ways I thought would work (par, boxplot(...xlim=)) but none of them seem to work. I then tried plot.window,

I can get the interactions between factors like this: > idx=c(1,3,6,9) > jdx=idx > levels(interaction(idx,jdx,lex.order=TRUE)) [1] "1.1" "1.3" "1.6" "1.9" "3.1" "3.3" "3.6" "3.9" "6.1" "6.3" "6.6" "6.9" [13] "9.1" "9.3" "9.6"

Hello, I am trying to create a graphic to help me visualise data. A (very simplified) sample of the data is http://n4.nabble.com/file/n1839676/circle_data.txt circle_data.txt : Aug-07 Nov-07 Feb-08 data1 1 1.5 -1 data2 1 1.2 1.6 data3 1.3 1.4 1.8 data4 1.3

Dear all, I'm having problems with the tick of my graph. I'mpcombining lines and barplot. For my I'm using the function axis combined with the function pretty to have more efficient tick, but all my tick (for example, 300 as my max tick and -100 as my min tick) are not printed on my graph. So I would like to have for the left axis the seq from 0 to 100 (with 0 and 100 printed on

Hi R list, I like the default ticks that are set up using grid.xaxis() or grid.yaxis() with no arguments. Finding good values for the 'at' argument is usually not a trivial task; the default behavior of these functions seems to work well. The problem with this strategy is that I cannot figure out how to "recover" the positions of these ticks when you do NOT specify the

I need to make a fairly complex animated graphic and decided to use grid for it. A very simple example of what I need: ##============================================================================== library(grid) grid.newpage() pushViewport(plotViewport()) pushViewport(viewport(xscale = extendrange(c(0, 100)), yscale = extendrange(c(0, 100)))) grid.xaxis() grid.yaxis()

Dear Lister, plot() is using the data range as the default limits of yaxis. Is there any way I can change the limits? I just look at the help of plot() and par() and couldn't find answers.

The following: library(grid) grid.newpage() example(Grid) has the yaxis label partly cut off and the x axis label does not appear at all. Also ?grid.multipanel in that example brings up documentation for grid-internal but this would not seem to be internal if its part of an example.

Hello All, My question is regarding the attached plot. I would like to have multiple transparent green bands running the length (yaxis) of the plot the width of which is determined by the green lines at y=0 in the plot. Can you suggest a way to do it? For those who can't or are unwilling to download the file the plot is at http://www.twitpic.com/ma8w0 Thanks!

Dear R Users: I have the individual mortality rate and 95% CI of 100 hospitals, how to do the plot with the individual hospital in the Yaxis, and the mortality rate and 95% CI in the Xais and a overall mean as a reference line? Thanks and regards, Xin [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
