Re: [R] how to assign a value to a specific position of a list

The only thing "compelling" about your example is that you have the pre-conceived (wrong) notion that you have to store your objects under separate names in your global environment. That is not only wrong, it handicaps you for future unified processing of these data. I see a lot of constructs

Re: [R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Bendy like spaghetti :-) Thanks, Jim. I wasn't aware of plotrix, and it does seem to be a cornucopia of useful, graphical stuff. In this case, my quest for rotating characters stemmed from what you might call a PHB request that I was eventually able to work around. I posed my original question

Re: [R] how to assign a value to a specific position of a list

Thank you very much, and your reply is helpful. I don't like assign, and even don't use parse in my previous codes. However, in the case I encountered, assign and parse may be the right tools. Here is the code I used: # in the workspace, there are tens directory. # In each directory, there

Re: [R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Hi Michael, The arctext function (plotrix) does something similar, and the code could be modified to do what you request. If you do want a working function, it wouldn't be too hard to program. Jim On Tue, May 2, 2017 at 6:57 AM, Michael Hannon wrote: > Hi, folks.

Re: [R] [FORGED] Re: Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Hi I do not recall ever using crt. A grep of the source code suggests that no user-level functions ever refer to it either. In other words, it appears to be basically unimplemented. Specifically with regard to text in the margins of a base plot, in addition to every function ignoring crt,

Re: [R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Perhaps R does what S+ does with par("crt"). S+'s help(par) says: crt=x character rotation in degrees measured counterclockwise from horizontal. When srt is set, crt is automatically set to the same value, unless crt appears later in the command than srt. Many

Re: [R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

FWIW: "srt = 90" should rotate the whole string "aa" 90 degrees in a call to text(), and it does. I interpret "crt =90" to rotate the individual letters of "aa" 90 degrees, but it does not on my graphic device, RStudioGD. It probably works on some other devices, but I don't know which

Re: [R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Thanks, Bert. I *did* mean crt, and I did read (and re-read) the man page. What I'm lacking, and the only thing I'm asking for, is a working example of the use of that parameter. -- Mike On Mon, May 1, 2017 at 2:08 PM, Bert Gunter wrote: > Hard to know what you want

Re: [R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Hard to know what you want or did without code. But, a guess: did you want the "srt" parameter and not "crt"? Of course, it's always useful to read the man page, in this case for ?par, where it says: (for crt): "A numerical value specifying (in degrees) how **single characters** should be

[R] Example of the use of the "crt" graphical parameter?

Hi, folks. This is an issue that we've defined away, but I recently thought it would be useful to rotate characters in some marginal text in a base-R plot. I made a few stabs on using the "crt" parameter but was unsuccessful. I'm deliberately omitting details of my attempts, as I want just to

Re: [R] how to assign a value to a specific position of a list

It's not clear what you're trying to do. However, to "assign a value to a specific position of a list", this example should show you how. lst <- vector('list', 10) ## see the help page for list names(lst) <- paste0('list.',1:10) ## to assign 'a' to position 3: pos <- 3 lst[[pos]] <- 'a'

Re: [R] Lattice xyplot

It is not a question of whether lattice "understands" the unsorted data... imagine trying to plot 4 points to form a square instead of a trend line... you would NOT want lattice to sort those points for you. That lattice leaves your data alone gives you more flexibility, even while it adds work

Re: [R] Lattice xyplot

In addition to Berts comments Once you change the order you change the non factored id' ordering. If you make it a factor it may be easier to see what is going on I think I have copied correctly - see the differences # original data xyplot(y ~ time, data=dat, groups=id, aspect = "fill", type

Re: [R] Lattice xyplot

Yes. type = "l" connects the points in the order given in the data, so if the x's are not already ordered, the plots will be different after ordering the x's. e.g. > x <- c(3,1,2,4,6,5) > y <- 11:16 > xyplot(y~x. type = "l") As for why ... that's just the way it was designed. You can always
