x-axis labeling between thickpoints
Eric Thompson · Feb 4, 2007 · r-help

I think you want the 'at', 'labels', and 'tick' arguments of axis(). This should essentially get you what you want: > hist(rnorm(100), axes = F) > axis(side = 1, at = -3:3, lab = F) > axis(side = 1, at = (-3:3)+0...

Specify plot size
Eric Thompson · Oct 8, 2007 · r-help

Have you tried using pdf(), postscript(), or jpeg()? All of these have arguments to specify the height and width of the device. On 10/8/07, Christoph Krammer <ck at altaica.de> wrote: > Hello, > > I have another (possibly easy) question...

Help for L-moment Ratio Diagram
Eric Thompson · Dec 4, 2006 · r-help

I think there are a few packages for doing this. I have used "lmomco": the function lmom.ub() will calculate the sample lmoments, and lmrdia() gives theoretical lmoments for different distributions. Hope this is helpful. Eric On 12/4/06...

How to plot with txt or symbol instead of number as x-axis scale ?
Eric Thompson · Oct 22, 2007 · r-help

There are probably much more fancy ways to do this, but since no one else has posted a response, here's what I would do: > plot(seq(10, 40, 10), axes = FALSE) > axis(1, at = 1:4, lab = LETTERS[1...

export csv
Eric Thompson · Oct 1, 2007 · r-help

Did you try reading the help pages or looking at the examples in the help pages? Did you even make an attempt at using the command? If so, did you get an error or unexpected results? I don't know...

delete content of directory - unlink doesn't work as expected

acf and pacf plot
Eric Thompson · Apr 27, 2007 · r-help

The lines indicate the confidence interval (95% by default). I think you mean that it is not documented in help(acf), but it directs you to plot.acf in the "See Also" secion. >From ?plot.acf: Note: The confidence interval...

Single precision data behaviour with readBin()
Eric Thompson · Nov 9, 2006 · r-help

Hi all, I am running R version 2.4.0 (2006-10-03) on an i686 pc with Mandrake 10.2 Linux. I was given a binary data file containing single precision numbers that I would like to read into...

How to add legend for image()?
Eric Thompson · Oct 2, 2007 · r-help

Have you tried filled.contour()? It automatically generates a legend. However, I'm not sure what is going on with your x's and y's being sorted random numbers. I assume your actual data are not like this. If...

QQ plotting of various distributions...
Eric Thompson · Sep 27, 2009 · r-help

It seems I misunderstood Sunil's response and somewhat freaked out because it appeared that he was giving the wrong method for making a QQ plot, but was actually demonstrating the sampling variability. My apologies to Sunil. 2009/9/27...

error returned by "make check" in R-2.5.0
Eric Thompson · Apr 27, 2007 · r-help

Today I tried to install the R-2.5.0 (currently running R-2.4.1) on Mandriva Linux. The ./configure and make commands seem to run fine, but "make check" gives the following messages: running regression tests make[3...

plot question
Eric Thompson · Oct 2, 2007 · r-help

But you did not use the command I suggested: you replaced x with colnames(n), which is a vector of characters. Characters such as "25p" has little meaning for plotting: > as.numeric("25p") [1] NA So you've tried to...

plot question
Eric Thompson · Oct 2, 2007 · r-help

Okay. If you want to customize the axis labels, you can suppress the defaults by changing the matplot call to matplot(x, t(n), pch = 1, axes = FALSE) And then adding them how you want: axis(side = 2) axis(side...

QQ plotting of various distributions...
Eric Thompson · Sep 27, 2009 · r-help

The supposed example of a Q-Q plot is most certainly not how to make a Q-Q plot. I don't even know where to start.... First off, the two "Q:s in the title of the plot stand...

Different freq returned by spec.ar() and spec.pgram()
Eric Thompson · Nov 21, 2007 · r-help

Dear list, I've recently become interested in comparing the spectral estimates using the different methods ("pgram" and "ar") in the spectrum() function in the stats package. With many thanks to the authors of these complicated functions, I would like...

plot question
Eric Thompson · Oct 2, 2007 · r-help

If I've correctly interpreted what you want, you first need to get the x values: x <- colnames(n) x <- as.numeric(substr(x, 1, nchar(x) - 1)) Then it seems fairly easy to use matplot to get the values...
