I would like to cumulatively sum rows in a matrix, in which each row has 1
NA value. The usual "na.rm=TRUE" does not seem to work with the command
cumsum. Is there another way to ignore the NAs or do I need to figure out a
different way to do this?
Here's an example matrix of title "proportion":
Ntrail Strail NFJD Baldy Onion Crane
[1,] NA 0.2944937 0.1779969 0.1808015 0.2296511 0.11705683
[2,] 0.2882713 NA 0.1795668 0.1823961 0.2316766 0.11808925
[3,] 0.1716890 0.1769419 NA 0.3518116 0.2025204 0.09703714
[4,] 0.1726311 0.1779128 0.3482548 NA 0.2036317 0.09756961
[5,] 0.2252904 0.2321833 0.2059743 0.2092197 NA 0.12733223
[6,] 0.2052614 0.2115415 0.1764081 0.1791877 0.2276013 NA
I want cumulative sums for each row.
Here's the code that works until it reaches an NA, then returns all
subsequent values as NA. Adding na.rm=TRUE returns the error:
Error in FUN(newX[, i], ...) : 2 arguments passed to 'cumsum' which
requires 1
cumsums <- apply(proportion, 1, cumsum)
Thank you,
Tracy
