Your code appears to be a load of dingos' kidneys, but in general when
troubleshooting one can do worse than be guided by
fortune("magnitude and direction").

Hi everyone, I am having trouble understanding where I went wrong with my
code. It seems to logically be "all there" but the output says otherwise.
I know this is a bit long but I can't seem to find the errors so I would
appreciate your help :)
This is my program :
files<-Sys.glob("*.rescount.txt");length<-length(files);* #selecting all
files of a particular extension, saving in a list*
a<-1;
while(a<=length) *#going through every element of the list*
{
df1<-read.table(files[a]);
c.leng<-length(files[,1]);
r.leng<-length(files[1,]); *#creating data frame for output with the same
dimensions as input*
opdf<-data.frame(matrix(rep(NA,nrow(df1)*ncol(df1)),nrow=nrow(df1)));
opdf[,1]<-df1[,1];
opdf[1,]<-df1[1,]; *#copying the first row and first column so they have
the same headers*
b<-2;
while(b<=c.leng) *#working through each row of the input data frame*
{
c<-2;
while(c<=r.leng) *#working through each row element of a particular
column*
{
n<-(df1[c][b,]);
k<-1;
while(k<=(n-1)) *#inner loop to go through a value of 'k' variable*
{
... *#working with the code to generate a value*
opdf[c][b,]<-sum; *#[1]*
k<-k+1;
}
c<-c+1;
}
b<-b+1;
}
fname<-strsplit(files[a],".seq.ptseq.rescount.txt"); *#generating uniqe
file names based on the input file names*
ext<-".zsc.txt";
filename<-paste0(fname,ext);
write.table(opdf,file=filename,row.names=FALSE,col.names=FALSE,quote=FALSE,sep="\t");
a<-a+1;
}
If the input data frame is supposed to be :
*NAME V1 V2 V3*
*V1' * 10 12 45
*V2' * 56 34 79
*V3' * 34 67 87
The output data frame should be :
*NAME V1 V2 V3*
*V1' * x y z
*V2' * a b c
*V3' * n p q
(all the letters of the alphabet are various numbers generated by the
program and filled in in the line marked by #[1]
However my output file contains this:
"x"
