RE: [R] Stacking Vectors/Dataframes

2004-08-16 Thread Laura Quinn
As our IT man is currently on holiday I am not able to upgrade to version 1.9.0(or 1.9.1) at the moment, and I see that the gregmisc library will not work on earlier versions (I am using 1.8.0). Does anyone have any other suggestions how I might be able to acheive this? Thank you Laura Quinn

Hi Laura, Off the top of my head I'd suggest something like this (assuming your data frames are named a and b) a$ord - 1:nrow(a) b$ord - (1:nrow(b))*2 c - rbind(a, b) c - c[order(c$ord), ] ie. add a new column that has the desired ordering, then join the two data frames together, then reorder.

Archived versions of gregmisc (and other packages) are available from: http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/ Download one of the older versions (ie. 0.8.5) and install it from a console using R CMD INSTALL. If you are restricted from installing packages to the main R tree (ie. you do

Yes, make a local installation on your home directory or another machine which you have write access to. AFAIK, you cannot update R itself. You will need to install R-1.9.1 and delete the old version as opposed to upgrading from it. You can try to salvage the lib directory but it is much better

I believe interleave() in the `gregmisc' package can do what you want. Cheers, Andy From: Laura Quinn Hello, Is there a simple way of stacking/merging two dataframes in R? I want to stack them piece-wise, not simply add one whole dataframe to the bottom of the other. I want to
