Simple... but...
Hi R,
If
x=c(1,3,5)
y=c(2,4,6)
I need a vector which is c(1,2,3,4,5,6) from x and y.
How do I do it? I mean the best way....

sequential sum of a vector...
Hi R,
Let,
x=1:80
I want to sum up first 8 elements of x, then again next 8 elements of x,
then again another 8 elements..... So, my new vector should look like:
c(36,100,164,228,292,356,420,484,548,612)
I used:
aggregate(x,list(rep(1:10,each=8)),sum)[-1]
or
rowsum(x,group=rep(1:10,each=8))
But without grouping, can I achieve the required? Any other ways of
doing

To preserve the class "Matrix"
Hi,
Suppose
a=matrix(1:9,3,3)
> a
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 1 4 7
[2,] 2 5 8
[3,] 3 6 9
Now,
> class(a[1:2,])
[1] "matrix"
> class(a[1:3,])
[1] "matrix"
> class(a[,1:2])
[1] "matrix"
> class(a[,1:3])
[1] "matrix"
But,
> class(a[1,])
[1] "integer"
> class(a[,1])

single plot statement, multiple plots
Hi R,
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
x1=(1:5)^1; x2=(1:5)^2; x3=(1:5)^3; x4=(1:5)^4
I need to write a single plot statement, which creates 4 plots (for x1,
x2, x3 and x4) in the graphics window, without using 'for' loop. Is this
possible? Does 'do.call' help in this context? Or do I have any option
in the 'plot' statement itself to do this?
Thanks in advance,
Shubha

Dimensions of a List
Hi R,
I have a list,
l=list(list(c(1,2),c(4,5),c(6,7)),list(c(11,22,33),c(44,55,66)))
> l
[[1]]
[[1]][[1]]
[1] 1 2
[[1]][[2]]
[1] 4 5
[[1]][[3]]
[1] 6 7
[[2]]
[[2]][[1]]
[1] 11 22 33
[[2]][[2]]
[1] 44 55 66
How do I know the dimensions of this list?... In other words, how many
sub-lists, sub-sub-lists etc...are there in l? How do I know this?

Transposing by a group variable
Hi R,
Can I transpose a data frame by a particular group variable?
For example:
d=data.frame(group=c(1,1,2,2,2),val=c(6,4,6,3,5))
And my output should be:
data.frame(group=c(1,2),v1=c(6,6),v2=c(4,3),v3=c(NA,5))
Many thanks,
Shubha

Could anyone tell me what is the command used in R to do
1. Differentiation

Fatigued R
Hi R,
Please solve my problem...........
I am extracting Bloomberg data from R, in a loop. R is getting fatigued
by doing this process and gives some errors. I introduced sleep
function. Doing this sometimes I get the results and sometimes not. I
even noticed that if I give complete rest for R (don't open R window)
for 1 day and then run my code with the sleep function, then the

sum of unknown number of matrices
Hi R,
I have a list of matrices. I need to get the sum of all the matrices in
the list.
Example:
a=b=c=d=matrix(1:4,2,2)
l=list(a,b,c,d)
I need:
> a+b+c+d
[,1] [,2]
[1,] 4 12
[2,] 8 16
Something like do.call("+",l) is not working...why is this?
I may not be knowing the number of matrices in the list...

Month end calculations
Hi R users,
Is there a function in R, which does some calculation only for the month
end in a daily data?... In other words, is there a command in R,
equivalent to "last." function in SAS?

Between the values
Hi R,
This is a very trivial one....
C=0.1
I want to check whether my value of C is between 0 and 1 exclusively....
I don't want to use (C>0 & C<1). And I can't use a single statement like
(0<C<1). Is there a between function? Or how do we specify from 0 to 1?
Does %in% help me?
Many Thanks,

Regular Expressions
Hi R,
Again struck with regular expressions...
Suppose,
S=c("World_is_beautiful", "one_two_three_four","My_book")
I need to extract the last but one element of the strings. So, my output should look like:
Ans=c("is","three","My")
gsub() can do this...but wondering how do I give the regular expression....

ordering in list.files
Hi R,
My csv files are stored in the order, '1abc.csv', '2def.csv',
'3ghi.csv', '10files.csv' in a folder. When I read this into R from
list.files (R command: x=list.files("Z:/CSV/fold",full.names=F), I don't
get the same order, instead I get the order as "10files.csv" "1abc.csv"
"2def.csv" "3ghi.csv". But
