Hey,
I am trying to graph a series of XY plots from a set of .csv files. Getting the
csv files read in and the original plot set up is not a problem, but I cannot
figure out a way to call get(iterator) within a separate dataset. A chunk of my
code is below.
data <- read.csv(file= filename)
data2 <- read.csv(file= filename2)
names <- names(data)
attach(data)
for (item in names) {
jpeg(filename=sprintf(directory_%s.jpg, item)
plot(SiO2, get(item), pch="", ylab=sprintf("%s", item))
points(alith$SiO2, alith$get(item), pch=21, col="red")
points(blith$SiO2, blith$get(item), pch=21, col="blue")
points(clith$SiO2, clith$get(item), pch=21, col="green")
points(dlith$SiO2, dlith$get(item), pch=21, col="orange")
points(glith$SiO2, glith$get(item), pch=21, col="red4")
points(hlith$SiO2, hlith$get(item), pch=21, col="purple")
points(llith$SiO2, llith$get(item), pch=21)
dev.off()
}
Ideally this would spit out hundreds of xy plots (and it does work if I plot
them all in the same color by turning the pch="" off. However, when calling
from a dataset with $, it will not let you use a function as the argument (the
get(item) part gives an error). Is there any way around this?
Thanks
Taylor
