Hi R people: I have huge files with as many as 5000 columns. I'd really like to read only certain columns of those files. I know column names I want to read. I looked at the documentation of read.csv . Although there is a col.names option, it allows users to specify the names of the columns, rather than to pick the columns of interest. Any suggestions on how to pick the columns I want to

Hi list, I have a question on how to identify the overlapped items from two vectors: >x<-c(0,1,2) >y<-c(1,2,2,3) and plot the number of the overlapped as well as non-overlapped in a diagram? Thanks much, Allen [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have a beginner question. After I finally get the data to a data.frame that I can work with I have the following a data frame that is fairly long: > length(r2007) [1] 17409 If I look at the first element: > r2007[1] $`100009` DayOfYear Quantity 1 66 1 2 128 1 3 137 1 4 193 1 Now how do I get the length of this list (actually it is

Dear R Gurus: What is the name of the person who has all of the Tcl/tk stuff, please? I know it's James W, but can't remember his last name. I wanted to look at some of his examples. Thanks in advance! Sincerely, Erin -- Erin Hodgess Associate Professor Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences University of Houston - Downtown mailto: erinm.hodgess at gmail.com

Hi list, One of my co-workers found this problem with 'cor' in his code and I confirm it too (see below). He's using R 2.2.1 under Win 2K and I'm using R 2.3.0 under Win XP. =========================================== > R.Version() $platform [1] "i386-pc-mingw32" $arch [1] "i386" $os [1] "mingw32" $system [1] "i386, mingw32" $status

Greetings R experts, I'm having some difficulty recovering lda objects that I've saved within sublists using the save.image() function. I am running a script that exports a variety of different information as a list, included within that list is an lda object. I then take that list and create a list of that with all the different replications I've run. Unfortunately I've been

Hi! The kernlab function kpca() mentions that new observations can be transformed by using predict. Theres also an example in the documentation, but as you can see i am getting an error there (As i do with my own data). I'm not sure whats wrong at the moment. I haven't any predict functions written by myself in the workspace either. I've tested it with using the matrix version and the

Hello, I'll use part of the iris dataset for an example of what I want to do. > data(iris) > iris<-iris[1:10,1:4] > iris Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 4 4.6 3.1 1.5

I am making a battery of levelplots and wireframes for several fitted models. I wrote a function that takes the fitted model object as the sole argument and produces these plots. Various strange behavior ensued, but I have identified one very concrete issue (illustrated below): when my figure-drawing function includes the addition of points/lines to trellis plots, some of the

Dear all What is the easy way to drop a variable by using its name (and not its number)? Example: > data(iris) > head(iris) Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa 3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa 4 4.6 3.1

Dear all The trouble with the current duplicated() function in is that it can report duplicates while searching fromFirst _or_ fromLast, but not both ways. Often users will want to identify and extract all the copies of the item that has duplicates, not only the duplicates themselves. To take the example from the man page: > data(iris) > iris[duplicated(iris), ] ##duplicates while

Hi Dieter and R community: I tried both of these three versions with ylim as suggested, none work: I am getting only single (pch = 16) not overlayed (pch =3) everytime. *vs 1* require(lattice) xyplot(Sepal.Length ~ Sepal.Width | Species , data= iris, panel= function(x, y, subscripts) { panel.xyplot(x, y, pch=16, col = "green4", ylim = c(0, 10)) panel.lmline(x, y, lty=4, col =

Hi, [I sent this to the plyr mailing list (late) last night, but it seems to be lost in the moderation queue, so here's a shot to the broadeR community] Apologies in advance for being more verbose than necessary, but I'm not even sure how to ask this question in the context of plyr, so ... here goes. As meaningless as this might be to do with the `iris` data, the spirit of it is what

Dear all, I have a script about iteration classification, like this below data(iris) N <- 5 ir.tr.iter <- vector('list',N) ir.tr <- vector('list',N) for (j in 1:N) { ir.tr[[j]] <- rpart(Species ~., data=iris) ir.tr.iter[j] <- ir.tr[[j]]$frame result <- list(ir.tr=ir.tr, ir.tr.iter=ir.tr.iter) } as.data.frame(as.matrix(ir.tr.iter))

Dear all Is there a simpler method to achieve the following: When I obtain an empty data.frame after subsetting, I need for it to contain one line of NAs. Here's a dummy example: > (.xb <- iris[ iris$Species=='zz', ]) [1] Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species <0 rows> (or 0-length row.names) > dim(.xb) [1] 0 5 > (.xa <-

Hi, I tried several settings by using the "family=gaussian" in "gl1ce", but none of them works. For the case "glm" can work. Here is the error message I got: > glm(Petal.Width~Sepal.Length+Sepal.Width+Petal.Length ,data=iris,family=gaussian()) > gl1ce(Petal.Width~Sepal.Length+Sepal.Width+Petal.Length ,data=iris,family=gaussian()) Error in eval(expr, envir,

In using cor(data.frame), it is annoying that you have to explicitly filter out non-numeric columns, and when you don't, the error message is misleading: > cor(iris) Error in cor(iris) : missing observations in cov/cor In addition: Warning message: In cor(iris) : NAs introduced by coercion It would be nicer if stats:::cor() did the equivalent *itself* of the following for a data.frame:

Dear all I have a simple problem which I thought is easy to solve but what I tried did not work. I want to change character variables to factor in data frame. It goes easily from factor to character, but I am stuck in how to do backwards conversion. Here is an example irisf<-iris irisf[,2]<-factor(irisf[,2]) # create second factor str(irisf) 'data.frame': 150 obs. of 5

Hi there: I have a question about generating mean value of a data.frame. Take iris data for example, if I have a data.frame looking like the following: --------------------- Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2

I've just tried to merge 2 data sets thinking they would only keep the common columns, but noticed the column count was not adding up. I've then replicated a simple example and got the same thing happening. q1. why doesn't 'b' have a column name? q2. when I merge, why does the new column 'y' have all values as 5.1?
