similar to: ordering a data frame to same order as a chr vector

Hi all, I've got a matrix of fractional data that is all positive and greater than zero that I would like to "loosely" classify, for lack of a better word. It looks something like this : 1.07 1.11 1.27 1.59 0.97 0.76 2.23 0.98 0.71 0.88 1.19 1.02 What I'm looking for is a way to round these numbers to the nearest 0.25, i.e. the above matrix would be

Hi all, I've got a package i've written that i am trying to check, build, and install. This is my 1st time doing this, so apologies in advance... ;) The package that I've written requires input from the user. It needs to know sample sizes and then runs some calcs, (sample sizes are just integers), and it gets this info from the user as num_reps <- readline("How many reps

Hi all, I've got a script that generates a few moderate-size data frames, and then puts them together into one big data frame at the end in order to write that data frame to disk, so that it may be re-opened later on... I'm trying to trim down memory requirements in this script, so I was wondering if there was any way to append to a data frame already saved on disk (just like

Hi all, I originally posted this to the bioconductor group, but maybe it's better suited to the r-help... I'm using som() to partition samples of gene expression data into clusters. The point is to classify control vs. experimental cases (sample clustering). The original matrix was 22283 x 8. The 8 samples have 4 controls and 4 experimentals. I transposed the matrix so that its dim

Hi all, What I'd like to do is to is to be able to extract a string corresponding to only the file name from a string containing the complete path, i.e. from the following path string: "/Users/ken/Desktop/test/runs/file1" I would like to end up with: "file1" This would be most ideally done in a platform-independent way. Thanks in advance, -Ken

Here's an example (session info at the end). > tmpv <- c('\265g/L','Bq/L') > order(tmpv) [1] 2 1 > tmpv <- I(tmpv) > order(tmpv) Error in if (xi > xj) 1L else -1L : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed > foov <- gsub('\265','',tmpv) > order(foov) [1] 2 1 > str(tmpv) Class 'AsIs' chr [1:2] "\265g/L"

I need to write out with write.table() a csv file allowing for line feeds (pure chr(10)) as part of character field (not as a line seperator). How can I do that? Best regards Jens Oehlschl?gel --

Thanks to all who have responded. My concern was to be able to write a csv file that can have line feeds in string columns chr(10). Why? Excel allows line feeds chr(10) within cells and line breaks chr(13)+chr(10) at line ending, but the windows version of R automatically replaces \n by \r\n in writing and \r\n by \n in reading (text mode). The clues for a solution came from Brian Ripley and

Hi all, I was hoping that someone could verify this for me- when I run princomp() on a matrix, it is my understanding that the scores slot of the output is a measure of how well each row correlates (for lack of a better word) with each principal component. i.e. say I have a 300x6 log2 scaled matrix, and I run princomp(). I would get back a $scores slot that is also 300x6, where each value

Is it an undocumented (at least I missed it if it's documented) feature of the reshape function to do numeric variables followed by character? I ask because that seems to be the case below. > str(rcw) 'data.frame': 23 obs. of 21 variables: $ ICU : int 1 18 17 9 22 19 6 16 25 26 ... $ Q6.RC.1 : chr "SM" "JF" "IW"

Hi all, Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I am on 10.4 with R2.2, and when loading a big text file (~500MB) with scan(file, what=character) I am throwing malloc errors that say I am out of memory...I have 5GB on this machine, and Activity Monitor tells me R is only up to ~1.84GB both times this has happened (running from terminal)... I am wondering why this is happening when I still have

Dear all, I think this is an easy task, but I don't know how to do it. Specifically, I have 69 columns with 300.000 rows. In each cell there is a code like "2E3", "4RR", etc. I now have a list that replaces this with values, e.g., old new 2E3 5 4RR 3 etc. The list ist about 1600 rows long, so also to extensive for normal solutions Do you how to do that? It would

Dear Rsync Users, Please can I have a bit of rsync advice? I am trying to rsync a file called. 'Draft text - with Holley comments.doc' from machine a to machine b. Unfortunately this isn't working because I think rsync recognises the - character and thinks it's an option. I have tried escaping this out as well as putting it all in " " but neither seems to work

Dear R-help, Has anyone implemented sparklines in the strips of a lattice plot? What I have in mind is, say, highlighting that part of a time series that one is examining in more detail in a set of lattice plots. Regads,. Mark Difford. PS: (Andreas Loffler has implemented a simple but functional version for TeX/LaTeX: http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/sparklines.html)

Hello R helpers, I would like to automate this code for many files of the same type. But I don´t know how to make it. In particular, i don´t know how to read many files each one as an r object with the name of the file. Then a for loop would be sufficient, right? Many thanks and a happy new year.

Below is a SIMEX object that was generated with the "simex" function from the "simex" package applied to a logistic regression fit.

Full_Name: Henrik Bengtsson Version: R v1.7.1 OS: WinXP Pro, Solaris 9 Submission from: (NULL) (130.235.2.229) A colleague of mine who is new to R had problems setting up his .Rprofile and we tracked it down to the following. On both WinXP and Solaris with Rv1.7.1 we noticed that the *last* line in .Rprofile has to have a *newline* to be evaluated. For instance, starting R with the following

Hi, I'm trying to read a .mat file into R (2.11.1) with medium success so far. The file I have is a MATLAB 5.0 MAT-file exported from RiverSurveyor LIVE software (http://www.sontek.com/software.php). I have R.matlab and Rcompression installed and readMat() starts reading the file, as can be seen in verbose mode (hence medium success), but then gives the following error: Error in dim(matrix)
