[R] backslash c

2007-08-07 Thread Mikkel Grum
How do I get output with \color{blue}, i.e. with
only one backslash??? 

 \color{blue}
[1] color{blue}
Warning messages:
1: '\c' is an unrecognized escape in a character
string 
2: unrecognized escape removed from \color{blue}

Any help greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

[R] arrowhead styles

2007-03-17 Thread Mikkel Grum
One way would be to use the grid function arrow(). Paul Murrell's document on 
Integrating Grid Graphics Output
with Base Graphics Output has an example of integrating grid graphics arrows 
in base graphics.

There's also an Arrows() function in the package IDPMisc.

Mikkel

Hi all,

I've been using the arrows() function in plots a lot, but I'm not  
happy with the appearance of the arrow heads. I understand that arrows 
() doesn't offer more sophisticated arrowhead shapes like e.g. a  
filled triangle, possibly with choice of angle at the point. Does  
anyone know an easy way to achieve this?

thanks
Hendrik

Re: [R] \r with RSQLite

2006-03-15 Thread Mikkel Grum
Thanks for the tip. I've attempted the alternative
approach of using write.table, which allows you to see
the file and import it directly. Would the carriage
returns be visible with notepad or with the edit
command? Because I don't see the /r in the text file,
but still get it when I query the database:

 library(RSQLite)
Loading required package: DBI
 a - (5:10)
 b - (LETTERS[5:10])
 df - as.data.frame(cbind(a, b))
 library(RSQLite)
 drv - dbDriver(SQLite)
 con - dbConnect(drv, dbname = Test)
 write.table(df, file = df.txt, quote = FALSE,
row.names = FALSE)
 dbWriteTable(con, DF, df.txt, header = TRUE,
row.names = FALSE, overwrite = TRUE)
[1] TRUE
 df2 - dbGetQuery(con, SELECT DISTINCT * FROM
DF)
 dbDisconnect(con)
[1] TRUE
 df2
 a_b
1  5 E\r
2  6 F\r
3  7 G\r
4  8 H\r
5  9 I\r
6 10 J\r

Also, this time it doesn't recognise that I didn't
want the rownames. I've attempted to go throught the
source code, but can't trace the problem with the
carriage return.

 \r is a carriage return character which some editors

 RSQLite writes your
 data frame to a temp file using \r as a line
 terminator and then runs
 a script to have SQLite import the data (together
 with \r - this would
 be the problem), but I have no idea if that's really
 the case. Check
 the documentation or ask the maintainer.

[R] 7:9, 12:14 in dataframe to c(7:9, 12:14)

2006-01-01 Thread Mikkel Grum
I want to do something like df[df$b %in% df2[i, 2], ] 
where df$b is a numeric vector and df2[i, 2] is a
factor with 
levels like 7:9, 12:14. For example:

a - c(paste(A, 1:10, sep = ), paste(B, 1:10,
sep = ))
b - 1:20
df - as.data.frame(cbind(a, b))
df$b - as.numeric(levels(df$b))[as.integer(df$b)]

f - c(X, Y, Z)
g - c(1:6, 7:9, 12:14, 18)
df2 - as.data.frame(cbind(f, g))

i - 2
df[df$b %in% df2[i, 2], ] # or
df[df$b %in% levels(df2)[as.integer(df2[i, 2])], ] #
this is the closest I've got

The results I want is given by 
 df[df$b %in% c(7:9, 12:14), ]
a  b
7  A7  7
8  A8  8
9  A9  9
12 B2 12
13 B3 13
14 B4 14

Can it be done?

Re: [R] readline() and Rterm in Windows

2005-11-03 Thread Mikkel Grum
I've tried your proposal in a number of ways, and
there must be something I'm not understanding. If I
run your script (using source() in RGui, or ctrl-R
from the R Editor, I get:

 conout - file('CONOUT$','w')
Error in file(CONOUT$, w) : unable to open
connection
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open file 'CONOUT$', reason 'Permission denied'



so I added the path as in:

conout - file('C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONOUT$','w')
conin - file('C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONIN$', 'r')
cat('Please enter an ID:', file=conout)
flush(conout)
id - readLines(conin, 1)
print(id)


Using RGui and ctrl-R from the R Editor, I get

 conout - file('C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONOUT$','w')
 conin - file('C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONIN$', 'r')
Error in file(C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONIN$, r) : 
unable to open connection
In addition: Warning message:

 cat('Please enter an ID:', file=conout)
 flush(conout)
 id - readLines(conin, 1)
Error in readLines(conin, 1) : object conin not

and with
 source(foo.R)
Error in file(C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONIN$, r) : 
unable to open connection
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open file 'C:\R\R-2.2.0\CONIN$', reason 'No

When I create a batch file with the following command
:
C:\R\R-2.2.0\bin\Rterm.exe --vanilla
C:\R\R-2.2.0\foo.R C:\R\R-2.2.0\foo.out

and double click on the batch file, the out file gives
me:

 conin - file('C:\\R\\R-2.2.0\\CONIN$', 'r')

and nothing else. In none of the situations do I get
prompted for input. What am I doing hopelessly wrong?

 It won't work so simply.  You're redirecting stdin,
 so user input would 
 be taken from there; you're redirecting stdout and
 stderr, so the prompt 
 won't be visible to the user.
 
 You need to open new handles to the console.  The
 code below will do it 
 in Windows; the syntax to specify the console in
 Unix-alikes will be 
 different (but I don't know what it is).
 
 conout - file('CONOUT$','w')
 conin - file('CONIN$', 'r')

[R] readline() and Rterm in Windows

I'm running an R script in Rterm and would like the
user to be prompted for input as in:

. . . etc.

This works when I run one line at a time in RGui, but

Re: [R] xmat[1, 2:3] - NULL

Thanks for this! This is even simpler than using

xmat - as.data.frame(matrix(NA, 2, 3))
try(xmat[i, 2:3] - dbGetQuery(...), silent = TRUE)

[R] about image() function in R and colors

2005-07-08 Thread Mikkel Grum
Javier, on the image and colors, did you try using the
breaks option? You will need 21 breaks to display 20
colors (see ?image).

Janek, the option asp = 1 should generally solve your
scaling problem (point 2 below). I don't remember
where I got that from, but it works unless you use
functions like abline which will take up the whole
plot region. Then you can adjust the plot region using

pin = c(diff(range(a*x)), diff(range(a*y)))

see ?par

Best wishes,
Mikkel


R] about image() function in R and colors

I do not know the solution to your problem, but I had
the similar problems
with image() function and most of derived functions.
It seems that 'image'
function was really not meant for displaying image
data, instead it was
designed to display matrices in the image format.
Matlab had the same
problem and ended up creating 2 functions: 'image'
(similar to R's 'image')
and 'imshow' (designed for displaying image data). 

There are three major processing steps in the 'image'
that are hard to
control or reverse:
1) scaling of the data intensities ( problem explained
by Javier). Scaling
is not much of a problem if continuous palette of
colors is used , or to
quote
?image when 'col' is a list of colors such as that
generated by
'rainbow', 'heat.colors', 'topo.colors',
'terrain.colors' or similar
functions. However scaling causes problems in case of
discontinuous
color-maps (palettes).
2) scaling of the data dimensions so it fits in
default size window instead
of scaling of the window to fit the data. This results
in image with
non-square pixels. There might be a way to force
'image' not to scale
dimensions, I just did not spend much time looking for
it yet.
3) Flipping of the image. As ?image shows one needs
to transpose and flip
matrix horizontally or perform
image(t(volcano)[ncol(volcano):1,]) for
the image data to be visualized in proper orientation.

All those steps make sense in case of visualizing 2D
data, but they are a
hindrance in case of visualizing images.

Subject: [R] about image() function in R and colors

Hi!

I've got a map in R imported from a GIS (GRASS) as a
vector of factors.
So I've got 20 different levels in the map and I've
created a vector of
custom colors of exactly 20 colors in lenght.
I'm trying to use image()  (really plot.grassmeta()
that call image()) to
plot the map with those colors but it doesnt work and
the colors are
changed.

I would like that all points belonging to level1 are
color 1 , and so on...

Please could you tell me if this procedure is not
correct?


Best regards,

Javier

[R] removing factor level represented by less than x rows

2005-07-08 Thread Mikkel Grum
In a number of different situations I'm trying to
remove factor levels that are represented by less than
a certain number of rows, e.g. if I had the dataset aa
below and wanted to remove the species that are
represented in less than 2 rows:

data(iris)
aa - iris[1:101,]

In this case, since I can see that the species
virginica only has one row, I can write:

table(aa$Species)
setosa versicolor  virginica 
50 50  1 

aa[aa$Species != virginica, ]

but:

aa[aa$Species == names(table(aa$Species) 2),]

does not work.

This must be a fairly common task with a straight
forward solution that I can't see. Any ideas?

Best wishes,
Mikkel

Thanks a lot!!  This was really a big help. The
following solves my problem:

xmat - as.data.frame(matrix(NA, 2, 3))
temp - dbGetQuery(...)
if (!is.null(temp)) {xmat[i, 2:3] - temp}

I'm adding data to only some columns of a larger

  PS. I'm using dbGetQuery to query an SQLite

 NULL represents a zero length object in R.
 
 Thus, trying to set only the first row in a data
 frame to NULL makes no
 sense, since you cannot have a 0 length object that
 also has a single
 row (as you seem to be trying to do above).
 
 Since a data frame is a series of lists, you could
 do the following:
 
  temp - NULL
  xmat - as.data.frame(matrix(NA, 2, 3))
 
  xmat
   V1 V2 V3
 1 NA NA NA
 2 NA NA NA
 
  xmat[, 1] - temp
 
  xmat
   V2 V3
 1 NA NA
 2 NA NA
 
 which removes the first column in the data frame.
 This is the same as:
 
  xmat[, -1]
   V2 V3
 1 NA NA
 2 NA NA
 
 
 You could also set the entire xmat to NULL as
 follows:
 
  xmat
   V1 V2 V3
 1 NA NA NA
 2 NA NA NA
 
  xmat - NULL
 
  xmat
 NULL
 
 
 You can then test to see if 'xmat' is a NULL:
 
  is.null(xmat)
 [1] TRUE
 
 and base a boolean expression and resultant action
 on that result:
 
 if (!is.null(xmat))
 {
   do_calculations...
 }
 
 If your calculations are on a row by row basis,
 where NA's represent
 missing data, you can also use one of several
 functions to eliminate
 those rows. See ?na.action, ?na.omit and
 ?complete.cases for more
 information and examples.
 
 HTH,
 
 Marc Schwartz

[R] Sweave with layout() and loop

2005-06-26 Thread Mikkel Grum
When I try the following code with the Windows
graphics window, a new window is opened for each
multiple of four images I produce.

par(layout(matrix(c(1,2,3,4), 2, 2, byrow = TRUE)),
mar = c(2, 3, 2, 3))

for (i in 1:n) {
 image(... )
 }

When I try to do the same with Sweave to produce a pdf
document, I only get one graphic with the first four
graphs.  How do I get the rest when n is greater than
four?

Plots, fig=TRUE, eps=FALSE, echo=FALSE,   
results=hide, width=6.8, height=9.8=

par(layout(matrix(c(1,2,3,4), 2, 2, byrow = TRUE)),
mar = c(2, 3, 2, 3))

for (i in 1:n) {
 image(... )
 }

Any ideas?

then the plot is plotted perfectly (scatterplot),
however, the lm()

[R] data files for packages

2004-08-22 Thread Mikkel Grum
Dear R-helpers,

This must be really simple and clearly expained
somewhere, but I can't find it. I'm writing an
R-package and want to create data sets for the
examples.  How do I save them in the format needed for
a package?

cheers,
Mikkel

[R] latitude longitude data

2004-08-22 Thread Mikkel Grum
Dear R-helpers,

I get GPS readings with bug counts (bugs meaning
insects in this case) made along rows in crop fields
and use these to make maps of bug distribution.  The
GPS readings are not quite accurate enough for my
purpose, so since I know what row each reading is made
in, I adjust the latitudinal coordinate using:

grd-lm(lat~lon+Row,data)
data$lat-predict(grd[,c(lon,Row)])

which adjusts the latitude pretty well when the rows
run East-West, but not at all when the rows run
North-South, and it doesn't adjust the longitude at
all.

Is there a better approach I could use to adjust both
longitude and latitude onto the nearest point in the
row, whatever the direction of the rows? In other
words, move the point onto the row in a direction that
is perpendicular to the row?

cheers,
Mikkel

[R] vectorized lines

2004-08-08 Thread Mikkel Grum
Hi,

I thought that the following code would give me a set
of parallel lines on a plot as in the second example.

q-c(-2253,-2119,-1985,-1850)
p-c(1,2,3,4)
a-rep(min(p),4)
b-rep(max(p),4)
plot(p,q)

# example 1
lines(c(a,b),c(q,q))

Now this gives me the lines I really want:

# example 2
lines(c(a[1],b[1]),c(q[1],q[1]))
lines(c(a[2],b[2]),c(q[2],q[2]))
lines(c(a[3],b[3]),c(q[3],q[3]))
lines(c(a[4],b[4]),c(q[4],q[4]))

I assumed that example 1 was a shorter (vectorized)
way of writing example 2?? What have I got wrong?

cheers,
Mikkel

[R] factor - numeric

2004-06-02 Thread Mikkel Grum
Hi,

I'm extracting data from a database with values for
different observation types in the same variable
(another variable deifnes the observation type).  Some
of these observation types are factors, so R naturally
classifies the entire variable as a factor.  I want to
select a subset and convert the values to numeric
values, but it isn't working; as shown below:

 rsm2-subset(rsm,PlantStrataId==2,select=c(Value))
 rsm2$Value
  [1]   70 30 
  15 50  
 [26]2
 
 [51]
6 
 [76] 
 3010
[101]17   
  15 
[126]   
24 Levels:  0-25 1 10 12 13 15 17 2 20 23 25 25-50 3
30 4 40 5 50 50-75 ... Present
 rsm2$Value-as.numeric(rsm2$Value)
Warning message: 
NAs introduced by coercion 
 rsm2$Value
  [1] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
 [26] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

 [51] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
[101] NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
[126] NA


is there any way out?  Help much appreciated.

cheers,
Mikkel

[R] converting text coordinates to decimal degrees

2004-06-01 Thread Mikkel Grum
I receive GPS readings in a text string such as
0121.6723S 03643.6893E and need the coordinates as
decimal degrees in two separate variables: -1.361205
and 36.728155.  How do I do this in R?
