Thank you for the tip about solrad. I don't need it right now, but I shall certainly have a use for it soon. On Wed, 31 Jan 2024 at 02:42, Kevin Thorpe wrote: > > There is also the package solrad that might do some of this. It is more > intended for calculating solar radiation, which is probabl

Re: [R] R interpreting numeric field as a boolean field

Hi Bert, After doing sapply(your_dataframe, "class"), it seems like R is recognizing that the field is of type numeric after all, the problem (it seems) is how the import_list() function from the rio package is reading the data (my suspicion). Best regards, Paul El mar, 30 ene 2024 a las 14:59,

Hi Bert, Below the information you asked me for: nrow(mydataset) [1] 2986276 sapply(mydataset, "class") $`Transit Date` [1] "POSIXct" "POSIXt" $`Market Segment` [1] "character" $`Número de Tránsitos` [1] "numeric" $`Tar No` [1] "character" $`Beam Range (Operations)` [1] "character"

Re: [R] R interpreting numeric field as a boolean field

And your other option - recode what gets imported. It may well be you will actually want the blanks to be NAs for instance rather than blank. I'm assuming the True and False are >$0 and $0 from your description. (Or maybe vice versa). So I'd have made my column name something like "OverZeroDollars"

Re: [R] R interpreting numeric field as a boolean field

If you are using the read_excel() function from the readxl package, then there's an argument named col_types that lets you specify the types to use. You could specify col_types = "numeric" to read all columns as numeric columns. If some columns are different types, you should specify a vector

Incidentally, "didn't work" is not very useful information. Please tell us exactly what error message or apparently aberrant result you received. Also, what do you get from: sapply(your_dataframe, "class") nrow(your_dataframe) (as I suspect what you think it is, isn't). Cheers, Bert On Tue, Jan

Re: [R] R interpreting numeric field as a boolean field

Dear friend Duncan, Thank you so much for your kind reply. Yes, that is exactly what is happening, there are a lot of NA values at the start, so R assumes that the field is of type boolean. The challenge that I am facing is that I want to read into R an Excel file that has many sheets (46 in this

Dear Rich, It depends how the data is generated. Although I am not an expert in ecology, I can explain it based on a biomedical example. Certain variables are generated geometrically (exponentially), e.g. MIC or Titer. MIC = Minimum Inhibitory Concentration for bacterial resistance Titer = di

Re: [R] Basic astronomy package recommendation wanted.

There is also the package solrad that might do some of this. It is more intended for calculating solar radiation, which is probably not what you want, but may do other things you may find helpful. > On Jan 30, 2024, at 5:44 AM, Enrico Schumann wrote: > > On Tue, 30 Jan 2024, Richard O'Keefe w

Given - UTC timestamp - a location (latitude,longitude,elevation) I want to know - the sun angles - the moon angles - the phase of the moon. I looked on CRAN for astronomy, but didn't notice anything that seems to offer what I want. I could try coding these functions myself, but "if you didn'

Question for 'experts' in LP using R (using the lpSolve package, say) -- which does not apply to me for the sort of problem I describe below. I've run any number of LP's using lpSolve in R, but all of them to date have objective and constraint functions that both contain the same variables. This
