Dear all, I would like to multiply two matrixes with the different dimension column by column. Let make an example: If I have two matrixes "X" and "Y"as follow: X<- matrix(1:12, nrow=4, ncol=3, dimnames=list(c("A","B","C","D"), c("stage1","stage2","stage3"))) Y<- matrix(1:28, nrow=4, ncol=7,

Hello R list, I have a list of data frames, in the form (dump output for an example list follows message): $site1 year data 1 2000 0.03685042 2 2001 0.02583885 6 2005 0.02480015 7 2006 0.03458745 $site2 year data 1 2002 4.071134e-03 2 2003 -4.513524e-08 3 2004 8.336272e-08 4 2005 2.270803e-08 5 2006 1.263597e-02 6 2007 NaN I would like to plot each

I want to gain thousands of random sampling data by randomizing the presence-absence data. Meantime, one important limition is that the row and column sums must be fixed. For example, the data "tst" is following: site1 site2 site3 site4 site5 site6 site7 site8 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0

Dear R-experts, I have a table with following collumns: State, SamplePlot, Species and BodySize. I sampled bird species at 34 SamplePlots and 5 States (regions) monthly during two years. On each bird record I measured bodysize and identified the species. So I have many records of each species (about 150 species) at each SamplePlot and each Region (State). Now I would like bootstrap

Hello all, here's a real-world example: I'm measuring a quantity (d) at five sites (site1 thru site5) on a silicon wafer. There is a clear site-dependence of the measured value. To find out if this is a measurement artifact I measured the wafer four times: twice in the normal position (posN), and twice rotated by 180 degrees (posR). My data looks like this (full, self-contained code at

Hi R user, Would you mind to help me on how I can change a value in a specific column and row in a big table? but the column of the table is a factor (not numeric). Here is an example. I want to change dat[4:5,3]<-"20" but it generated NA> do you have any suggestions for me? dat<-structure(list(Sites = structure(1:5, .Label = c("Site1", "Site2",

Dear r-users! I would like to cross two data frame which have the same row number but different in the number of column. Can anybody help me for this case ?

Dear all, I am trying to extract rows from a data.frame based on the rowSums != 0. I want to preserve rownames in the first column in the subset. Does anyone know how to extract all species that don't have rowSums equal to zero? Here it is: # dataset x <- data.frame( species=c("sp.1","sp.2","sp.3","sp.4"), site1=c(2,3,0,0), site2=c(0,0,0,0),

Hello, How can I randomly sample individuals within a sites from a site (row) X species abundance (column) data frame or matrix? As an example, the matrix "abund2" made below. ##### (sorry, Im a newbie and this is the only way I know to get an example on here) abund1 <- c(150, 300, 0, 360, 150, 300, 0, 240, 150, 0, 60, 0, 150, 0, 540, 0, 0, 300, 0, 240, 300, 300,

The simplest would be to convert precip to character and then back to a factor if you really want it to be a factor. This will also remove the levels that no longer exist. str(dat) # 'data.frame': 5 obs. of 3 variables: # $ Sites : Factor w/ 5 levels "Site1","Site2",..: 1 2 3 4 5 # $ temp : num 14 15 12 12.5 17 # $ precip: Factor w/ 5 levels

Dear R-friends, Unfortunately the tables that I "past" on last email gone with bad visual structure. So I send it again. Sorry to do this so confuse.

Dear list, I'm trying to mimic the analysis of Wedderburn (1974) as cited by McCullagh and Nelder (1989) on p.328-332. This is the leaf-blotch on barley example, and the data is available in the `faraway' package. Wedderburn suggested using the variance function mu^2(1-mu)^2. This variance function isn't readily available in R's `quasi' family object, but it seems to me

Dear all, I have 4 sites and want to determine how different they are from each other. For this I have decided to use R though it seems a bit daunting to learn. I have read data in from a CSV the structure is : Species1 Species2 Species3 Site1 4 4 7 Site2 3 1 0 Site3 0 99 6 Site4 75 3 33 There are many more species than shown above this is just an example. Here are the

Hello, If I have two variables that are factors or characters and I want to create a new variable that is the combination of both what function can I use to accomplish this? Ex. Var1 Var2 SA100055113 19851113 And I want NewVar SA10005511319851113 Thanks in advance. Cameron Guenther, Ph.D. Associate Research Scientist FWC/FWRI, Marine Fisheries Research 100 8th Avenue S.E.

Hello, I'd like to transpose data to create an analysis-friendly dataframe. See below for an example, I was unable to use t(x) and I couldn't find a function with options like PROC TRANSPOSE in SAS. The ideal solution handles variable quantities of SITE - but beggars can't be choosers. :-) Thank you in advance, Mike ## INPUT DATA USER_ID<-c(1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,4) SITE

Dear List, I often have to merge two or more data frames containing unique row names but with some columns (names) common to the two data frames and some columns not common. This toy example will explain the kind of setup I am talking about: mat1 <- as.data.frame(matrix(rnorm(20), nrow = 5)) mat2 <- as.data.frame(matrix(rnorm(20), nrow = 4)) rownames(mat1) <- paste("site",

Hello everyone, If I have an incidence matrix of 0 and 1's P=[1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0] I want to create a new uniform random matrix [a] that is filled with 0's and 1's but constrained so that the row and column sums are the same as in [P]. Does anyone know how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance Cameron Guenther, Ph.D.

Hello everyone, I have a large dataset (x) with some rows that have duplicate variables that I would like to remove. I find which rows are the duplicates with X1<-which(duplicated(x)). That gives me the rows with duplicated variables. Now, how can I remove just those rose from the original data frame. I think I can create a new data frame without the duplicates using subset. I have tried:
