Hi,
Suppose I've got a data frame: > inter.df V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7 V8 V9 V10 V11 V12 1 3.3 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 2 0.0 0.1 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 3 1.0 0.9 0.2 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 4 1.6 0.0 2.9 0.7 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 5 0.0 0.1 2.9 0.1 0.1 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 6 2.4 1.0 0.6 0.4 1.9 0.1 NA NA NA NA NA NA 7 2.8 1.4 1.2 7.5 0.0 0.0 4.2 NA NA NA NA NA 8 0.3 3.1 0.8 3.7 5.7 0.0 0.8 0.0 NA NA NA NA 9 0.1 2.9 0.3 1.3 0.2 0.2 0.5 1.4 0.9 NA NA NA 10 0.8 2.6 0.0 0.0 0.1 4.1 0.8 4.3 0.6 2.2 NA NA 11 0.0 4.0 0.0 0.3 0.5 0.9 0.0 1.5 0.2 0.7 0.8 NA 12 0.6 0.8 0.3 0.0 0.2 1.2 0.0 0.8 1.5 0.9 0.4 0 > > foo <- function(x) { + ifelse(x > 3.8, NA, x) + } > sapply(inter.df, foo) V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7 V8 V9 V10 V11 V12 [1,] 3.3 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA [2,] 0.0 0.1 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA [3,] 1.0 0.9 0.2 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA [4,] 1.6 0.0 2.9 0.7 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA [5,] 0.0 0.1 2.9 0.1 0.1 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA [6,] 2.4 1.0 0.6 0.4 1.9 0.1 NA NA NA NA NA NA [7,] 2.8 1.4 1.2 NA 0.0 0.0 NA NA NA NA NA NA [8,] 0.3 3.1 0.8 3.7 NA 0.0 0.8 0.0 NA NA NA NA [9,] 0.1 2.9 0.3 1.3 0.2 0.2 0.5 1.4 0.9 NA NA NA [10,] 0.8 2.6 0.0 0.0 0.1 NA 0.8 NA 0.6 2.2 NA NA [11,] 0.0 NA 0.0 0.3 0.5 0.9 0.0 1.5 0.2 0.7 0.8 NA [12,] 0.6 0.8 0.3 0.0 0.2 1.2 0.0 0.8 1.5 0.9 0.4 0
Up to here, sapply() does what I want, replacing values that are greater than 3.8 to NA, as per my foo() function. But...
> goo <- function(x) {
+ ifelse(x > 3.8, cat("\\textbf{", x, "}", sep = ""), x)
+ }
> sapply(inter.df, goo)
\textbf{NA0.10.900.111.43.12.92.640.8}Error in "[<-"(`*tmp*`, test, value = rep(yes, length.out = length(ans))[test]) :
incompatible types
If instead whenever I get a value that's greater than 3.8 I want to change it what goo() does, e.g. the value 4.0 should become:
\textbf{4.0}
but I got the above error.
What I'm intending is to then pass the inter.df (with the \textbf{} markups) into xtable() so the values will be bolded in the resulting LaTeX table (as so far, I cannot see how I can achieve bolding only certain numbers with xtable() alone).
Any suggestions will be welcome!
