Hi R User, Would you give me your hand to standardize some columns in a matrix? I have included the example table.
> dput(test) structure(list(X = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), Y = c(4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9), temp = c(0.818, 0.113, 0.256, 0.587, 0.955, 0.207), oxy = c(0.797, 0.487, 0.727, 0.128, 0.514, 0.031)), .Names = c("X", "Y", "temp", "oxy"), row.names = c(NA, -6L), class = "data.frame") here I wanted to standardize the variable "temp" and "oxy". I have more than 75 variables so that I need to apply 'loop'. Could you help me to make a loop? I wrote following but, it did not work. for (i in 1:n(test)){ for (t in 1:T (test)) x.z[i] = (x[i,t] - mean(x(i,]/sd)x[i,]) } Thanks for your help.
