[R] Calculate area under a curve

2010-07-01 Thread suse

Hi,

I want to know the area under a curve, which is not given as a function, but
as values in a time series. It is  not a smooth curve, but switches often
between positive values and zero (the values describe the moisture in the
soil over a year, one entry is one day). I already tried
area.between.curves, but got only 0 as result. I guess, it doesn't work
because of these multiple changes between 0 and positive values (most of the 
time, the values are 0 and in the certain case I tested, the positive values
were only on single days; but for other values positive values last longer)
I hope, someone can help me!

THank you!

Thank you, seems to be the right thing for me. But what is this "n" for? The
number of iteration steps as mentioned on other pages for the simpson rule?
"number of divisions" as said on the help page I don't understand. ("a" and
"b" can be ignored, if I got it right?!). Thanks again!

[R] Tutorial Tinn-R

2010-07-23 Thread suse

Hi,

does anyone know a tutorial for Tinn-R? During all my search I only found
R-Tutorials...
The problem now is: I would like to make Tinn-R an autosave. But since I had
several questions before concerning Tinn-R (for example, how to have Tinn-R
and R in one window or how do the new versions work), I think it is easier
to have a tutorial instead of asking here everything.

Thank you!

[R] Fill pattern for Boxplots?

2012-08-08 Thread suse
Is it possible to fill the boxes of  a boxplot with filling patterns/texture
instead of colours? Or both mixed? (for example white, grey, left diagonal
striped, right diagonal striped) How can I do that? I searched here, but
didn't find an answer.
Thank you!

[R] subscript with comma

2012-01-04 Thread suse
Hi,

I want to write a word with subscript in a graph. Unfortunately, the
subscript contains a comma, so all my trials didn't work and I didn't find
how to do it.
I want to write "sm" as normal text and "w,grass" in the subscript. Can
anybody help me?

And a more general question: I read the help to "plotmath", but I still
didn't understand, how it works. Is there a good documentation, book,...
which explains all this stuff?

Thanks in advance!

Re: [R] subscript with comma

2012-01-04 Thread suse
Thank you! It works now. 
But I still don't understand, how all these expressions, "", paste, group,
eval... have to be used together.  (For example, I first tried
expression(sm[w,grass]) but it didn't work, and I couldn't find, why (and
when) commas are interpreted here differently). So: Is there somewhere an
introduction (rather than examples) to this? Books, documents etc.

Thanks, this helps.
I guess my problem was that I thought that the problem with the comma
occurred because of the [] around. I didn't think that comma itself was the
problem.
