[R] decimal seperator
Hi R-List, I have a question regarding R-language formats, I think. I am producing a series of graphs (using plot, barplot, barchart, and bwplot, using either text or mtext to place values on the graphs) and tables for a Francophone country. In fact, I have already done so. However, while they are pleased with the results they've requested I convert all of my decimal points into the French format which uses commas rather than points. I have no idea how to do this for the graphs, despite searching the help, other than to convert all of my statistics into strings and manually reset the decimal separators, which would take a long time. Is there some quick and easy way? It's only the graphs I need assistance with. For tables I simply output to excel and it's easy to change them there. Here's an example (I'm sure it's crude but I'm still new at R. To make the graph look right you have to expand the java window...which I'm sure you don't need to do if you know how to do this in a more elegant manner): sites - c(Kayes, Kita, Koulikoro, Fana, Sikasso, Koutiala, SgFam, SgHop, Bla, Mopti, Douentz, Tombc, Dire,Gao,Ansongo,Kidal,Tessalit,BkoCommI,BkoCommIII,BkoCommV) size - list(2.91,2.36,5.09,3.21,2.27,4.09,2.31,2.76,1.2,2.03,3.06,0.53,1.43,1.83,1,0.93,0,4.01,4.13,3.47) site_size - data.frame(cbind(sites, size)) newdata - (sapply(subset(site_size, select=c(size)), as.numeric)) rownames(newdata) - site_size$sites library(grid) plot(newdata, ylab = , xlab= , axes = FALSE)#, type=h, lwd=16) points(newdata, cex = 10, col = topo.colors(20), bg=topo.colors(20), pch=22) lines(newdata, type=h, lwd=40, col=topo.colors(20)) axis(1, at=seq(1, 20, by=1), labels = FALSE) text(seq(1, 20, by=1), par(usr)[3] - 0.2, labels = site2_labels, srt = 45, pos = 1, xpd = TRUE) reg.txt - as.character(c(Kayes Koulikoro SikassoSegou Mopti Tombouctou GaoKidal Bamako)) mtext(paste(reg.txt), side=3, font=4, cex=1, adj=0)#, outer=T) text(0, 5.35, Region:, cex = 1, font=4, xpd=T) text(0, -.5, Sites:, cex=1.2, font=1, xpd=T) abline(v=c(2.5, 4.5, 6.5, 9.5, 11.5, 13.5, 15.5, 17.5)) axis(2, at=3, labels = FALSE) mtext(paste(VIH Prevalence (%)), side=2, font=2, cex=1.2) text(1,3, labels=newdata[1], col=white, cex=1.5);text(2,2.45, labels=newdata[2], col=white, cex=1.5) text(3,5.2, labels=newdata[3], col=white, cex=1.5);text(4,3.27, labels=newdata[4], col=white, cex=1.5) text(5,2.35, labels=newdata[5], col=white, cex=1.5);text(6,4.2, labels=newdata[6], col=white, cex=1.5) text(7,2.36, labels=newdata[7], col=black, cex=1.5);text(8,2.85, labels=newdata[8], col=black, cex=1.5) text(9,1.28, labels=newdata[9], col=black, cex=1.5);text(10,2.1, labels=newdata[10], col=black, cex=1.5) text(11,3.13, labels=newdata[11], col=black, cex=1.5);text(12,.6, labels=newdata[12], col=black, cex=1.5) text(13,1.48, labels=newdata[13], col=black, cex=1.5);text(14,1.9, labels=newdata[14], col=black, cex=1.5) text(15,1.05, labels=newdata[15], col=black, cex=1.5);text(16,1, labels=newdata[16], col=black, cex=1.5) text(17,.1, labels=newdata[17], col=black, cex=1.5);text(18,4.1, labels=newdata[18], col=black, cex=1.5) text(19,4.2, labels=newdata[19], col=black, cex=1.5);text(20,3.55, labels=newdata[20], col=black, cex=1.5) Thanks, Jen [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
