Hello, I have this data frame: ### begin d <-data.frame(matrix(c("1","--","bla",2),2,2)) d # I want to replace the "--" by "\N" and still get a data frame. # I tried: out <-gsub("--","\\\\N",as.matrix(d)) #using as.matrix to get rid of factors out cat(out) # But I lost my data frame ### end Any idea? Regards,

Hello, How do you change the language of the labels in a graph. In this example, I want to get French labels by changing Sys.putenv. I should get "Mai" instead of "May". Sys.putenv(LANGUAGE="fr") x <- as.Date(c("1jan1960", "2jan1960", "31mar1960", "30jul1960"), "%d%b%Y") y <-1:4 plot(x,y) Regards, Pierre

Here's my contribution to R. When R interacts with external programs (MySQL, cURL, etc.), it often requires a pasted string that is sent to these programs. For readability reasons, it is often preferable to have complex commands (SQL for example) spread on several lines. However, the normal paste function requires to add additional ' ", ' at the end of each line and another '

Hello, How would you export a 3-dimensional array to an SQL database? a<-array(1:24, 2:4) Is there an open source DB that would be more adequate for this type of operation? Is there a way to reshape/flatten a 3-dimensional array?

Gregexpr - extract results with lapply Hello, I need to extract sequences of three upper case letters in a string. In other words, in this string: str <-c("ABC", "this WOUld be gOOD") The result I'm looking for is ABC WOU OOD. With gregexpr, I can get the position and length of the sequences gregexpr('[A-Z]{3}',str,perl=TRUE) [[1]] [1] 1

Hi, This is my command line request: mysql -u root -ppassword -D quant <c:/cline.txt This line works from the command line in windows.

Hello, I need to identify all elements which have a sequence of 3 consecutive upper case letters, anywhere in the string. I tested my grep expression on this site: http://regexlib.com/RETester.aspx But when I try it in R, it does not filter anything. str <-c("AGH", "this WOUld be good", "Not Good at All") str[grep('[A-Z]{3}',str)] #looking for a

Hello, I created a table in MySQL with this command CREATE TABLE example (pk INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,PRIMARY KEY(pk), id VARCHAR(30),col1 VARCHAR(30),col2 VARCHAR(30)) ### In R, I can connect to this table: library(DBI) library(RODBC) chan <- odbcConnect("MySQL51", uid="root", pwd="xxx") first <- sqlQuery(chan, "select * from example")

I have a data assimilation problem that might be amenable to the use of GAMS, but I am not sure how feasible it is to implement. I was told the R mailing list was a great resource. My observations are spatiotemporal salinity in the San Francisco Bay at a number of instruments over a few days. The thing that I want to fit is the initial condition for a salt transport model at the beginning of this

Hello, I would like use Kalman filter for estimating parameters of a stochastic model. I have developed the state space model but I don’t know the correct way use Kalman filter for parameter estimation. Has anybody experience in work with Kalman filter in R. I don’t know the correct function. Maybe it is - KalmanLike; but what is the correct Input? - tsmooth? -

Hello, Let's say I have 50 R scripts to run. What would be the most efficient way to run them? I thought I could do multiple Rterms in a DOS batch file: Ex: Rterm <1.R> 1.txt Rterm <2.R> 2.txt ... Rterm <50.R> 50.txt However, I'm afraid they will all open at the same time. I know I could pause the batch file with something like: PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 60000

Hello, I want to reduce the distance between my ticks and their labels. I managed to do it for the x-axis, but the y-axis puzzles me. Here's an example where there is no space between the x-asix ticks and labels. par(las=1) plot(runif(50), type="l",xaxt="n",yaxt="n",ylab="", bty="l") axis(2) axis(1,padj=-1.5) #However, axis(2,padj=-1.5)

Hello, I have an excel file that I load through RODBC. Some of my columns are blank. They are equity time series and the stocks did not exist at the earlier dates. My problem is that the whole column becomes <NA> even though there are numbers at later dates.

Hi My name is Vladimir Samaj. I am a student of Univerzity of Zilina. I am trying to implement Kalman Filter into my school work. I have some problems with understanding of R version of Kalman Filter in package stats( functions KalmanLike, KalmanRun, KalmanSmooth,KalmanForecast). 1) Can you tell me how are you seting the initial values of state vector in Kalman Filter? Are you using some method?

Dear all, I'd appreciate any hints how to arrange some plots. I have three plots. I would like to arrange them in the following order: - Plot 1 and Plot 2 should be in the upper row - Plot 3 should be in the lower row but centered in the middle. I hope the following sketch will help understanding my problem ================ | === === | || P1| |P2 | | || | | | | | === === |

Hello R-helpers, I'm new to XML. I have been using an application for some time, but now I wish to automate my downloads with R. When I use the web interface of their XML application, I'm able to read the response in R with the XML package. My problem now is to send the requests directly from R. Here below are two XML request scripts that come from the applicaton help file. My

Hello, This is not a problem with R, the calculated results are mathematically correct. This a matrix stability problem. Because of measuring errors, my matrix solution is a bit off. Here is what my equations look like: A11 x11+A12 x12 +A13 x13 = b1 A21 x21+A22 x21 +A23 x23 = b2 A31 x31+A32 x31 +A33 x33 = b3 A is a reading, X is a measured weight, and b is total. The 3 experiments give

I am looking for a Kalman filter that can handle a control input. I thought that l.SS was suitable however, I can't get it to work, and wonder if I am not using the right function. What I want is a Kalman filter that accepts exogenous inputs where the input is found using the algebraic Ricatti equation solution to a penalty function. If K is the gain matrix then the exogenous input
