[R] Control over character height, width, skew etc.?

I would like to add characters to R plots but need separate control over height, width, skew, rotation etc. These parameters result from a statistical computation within R. Also I need to be able to control stroke and fill parameters independently. Finally, I need more than just ASCII characters,

Re: [R] Package(s) for making waffle plot-like figures?

Thank you very much for your codes and your descriptions. I ran them with my data, and they worked well! I am so happy to learn that your R codes and package could help me make these plots: I was baffled by this task and have been searching for solutions. I thought I was missing some arguments

[R] Hierarchical Cluster Analysis with large dataset

Hello! Can anyone give me advice on running Hierarchical Cluster Analysis on large datasets? For example, 8x1. Calculating distances on such a dataframe seems impossible even on very powerful computer. Also, any other advice that would lead to reduction of dimensionality, i.e.,

[R] Comparison of two weibull distributions

Hello, How can I do a test of two weibull distributions? I have two weibull distribution sets from two wind datasets in order to check whether they are same. I thought 2 sample t-test would be applicable but I couldn't find any ways to do that on the Internet. Does anyone know what type of test

Re: [R] Hierarchical Cluster Analysis with large dataset

(Offlist, since this is just a personal comment). I cannot help you -- but it sounds like the sort of thing that you should look for on the BioconductoR list. But I wonder how you could possibly interpret the results even if you could get them. I would think they would be more noise than signal,

Thanks for the suggestion, I will re-post it on R-devel. By others, what I mean is that when I searched for solutions, I found other people also posted questions with their problems with kernlab installation on linux platform. I have no problem with kernlab installation on windows platform

Re: [R] Hierarchical Cluster Analysis with large dataset

Hi, I think your dataset is too large to be interpretable, but in general you should check out the cluster package, specifically clara(), which is intended for use with large data. Sarah On Sun, Nov 3, 2013 at 4:42 AM, Petar Milin petar.mi...@uni-tuebingen.de wrote: Hello! Can anyone give me

Re: [R] Control over character height, width, skew etc.?

Hi R's text-drawing functions, such as text() or grid.text(), do NOT allow you to skew or stretch individual characters (like PostScript does). Your strategy of using PostScript to produce a result and then import the result as a shape for R to draw may work (if you can script it). Paul On
