DEAR ALL,
I TRIED THIS CODE AND THIS IS RUNNING PERFECTLY...

df=read.table("Case2.pileup",fill=T,sep="\t",colClasses = "character")
txt=df[,9]
txtvec <- readLines(textConnection(txt))
dad=data.frame(A = unlist(sapply(gregexpr("A|a", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] != -1)
length(x) else 0 )),
C = unlist(sapply(gregexpr("C|c", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] ! = -1)
length(x) else 0 )),
G = unlist(sapply(gregexpr("G|g", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] ! = -1)
length(x) else 0 )),
T = unlist(sapply(gregexpr("T|t", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] ! = -1)
length(x) else 0 )),
N = unlist(sapply(gregexpr("\\,|\\.", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] != -1)
length(x) else 0 )))


The unlist operation is unnecessary since the sapply operation returns a vector. (It doesn't hurt, but it is unnecessary.)




Thanking you,

On reflection and a bit of testing I think the best approach would be
to use gregexpr. For counting the number of commas, this appears quite
straightforward.

sapply(gregexpr("\\,", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] != -1)
length(x) else 0 )
 [1] 3 3 3 4 3 3 2 6 4 6 6

It easily generalizes to period and the `|` (or) operation on letters.
( did need to add the check since the length of gregexpr is always at
least one but ihas value -1 when there is no match

sapply(gregexpr("t|T", txtvec), function(x) if ( x[[1]] != -1)
length(x) else 0 )
 [1] 0 2 0 0 3 0 0 0 1 0 0

Hi:

There seems to be a problem if the string ends in , or . , which makes
it difficult for strsplit() to pick up if it is splitting on those
characters. Here is an alternative, splitting on individual characters
and using charmatch() instead:

charsum <- function(s, char) {
  u <- strsplit(s, "")
  sum(sapply(u, function(x) charmatch(x, char)), na.rm = TRUE)
 }

unname(sapply(txtvec, function(x) charsum(x, ',')))
unname(sapply(txtvec, function(x) charsum(x, '.')))

Putting this into a data frame,

dfout <- data.frame(periods = unname(sapply(txtvec, function(x)
charsum(x, '.'))),
                              commas = unname(sapply(txtvec,
function(x) charsum(x, '.'))) )
txtvec

HTH,
Dennis

Dear all,

I am doing a project on variant calling using R.I am working on
pileup file.There are 10 columns in my data frame and I want to
count the number of A,C,G and T in each row for column 9.example
of
column 9 is given below-

       .a,g,,
       .t,t,,
       .,c,c,
       .,a,,,
       .,t,t,t
       .c,,g,^!.
       .g,ggg.^!,
       .$,,,,,.,
       a,g,,t,
       ,,,,,.,^!.
       ,$,,,,.,.

This is a bit confusing for me as these characters are in one
column
and how can we scan them for each row to print number of A,C,G
and T
for each row.

Seems a bit clunky but this does the job (first the data):

txt <- " .a,g,,

+            .t,t,,
+            .,c,c,
+            .,a,,,
+            .,t,t,t
+            .c,,g,^!.
+            .g,ggg.^!,
+            .$,,,,,.,
+            a,g,,t,
+            ,,,,,.,^!.
+            ,$,,,,.,."

txtvec <- readLines(textConnection(txt))

Now the clunky solution, Basically subtracts 1 from the counts of
"fragments" that result from splitting on each letter in turn.
Could
be made prettier with a function that did the job.

data.frame(A = unlist(lapply( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit,

split="a"), length) , "-", 1)),
+ C = unlist(lapply( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit, split="c"),
length) , "-", 1)),
+ G = unlist(lapply( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit, split="g"),
length) , "-", 1)),
+ T = unlist(lapply( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit, split="t"),
length) , "-", 1)) )
                   A C G T
.a,g,,               1 0 1 0
        .t,t,,     0 0 0 2
        .,c,c,     0 2 0 0
        .,a,,,     1 0 0 0
        .,t,t,t    0 0 0 2
        .c,,g,^!.  0 1 1 0
        .g,ggg.^!, 0 0 4 0
        .$,,,,,.,  0 0 0 0
        a,g,,t,    1 0 1 1
        ,,,,,.,^!. 0 0 0 0
        ,$,,,,.,.  0 0 0 0

Has the advantage that the input data ends up as rownames, which
was a
surprise.

If you wanted to count "A" and "a" as equivalent, then the split
argument should be "a|A"



AS YOU MENTIONED THAT IF I WANT TO COUNT A AND a I SHOULD SPLIT
LIKE
THIS.

BUT CAN I COUNT . AND , ALSO USING-
data.frame(A = unlist(lapply( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit,
split=".|,"), length) , "-", 1)),

I TRIED IT BUT ITS NOT WORKING.IT IS GIVING THE OUTPUT BUT AT SOME
PLACES
IT IS SHOWING MORE NUMBER OF . AND , AND SOMEWHERE IT IS NOT EVEN
CALCULATING AND JUST SHOWING 0.

You need to use valid regex expressions for 'split'. Since "." and
"," are
special characters they need to be escaped when you wnat the
literals to be
recognized as such.

I haven't figured out why but you need to drop the final operation of
subtracting 1 from the values when counting commas:

data.frame(periods = unlist(lapply( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit,
                           split="\\."), length) , "-", 1))
,commas = unlist( lapply( sapply(txtvec, strsplit,
                           split="\\,"), length) ) )
                     periods commas
.a,g,,                      1      3
          .t,t,,           1      3
          .,c,c,           1      3
          .,a,,,           1      4
          .,t,t,t          1      4
          .c,,g,^!.        1      4
          .g,ggg.^!,       2      2
          .$,,,,,.,        2      6
          a,g,,t,          0      4
          ,,,,,.,^!.       1      7
          ,$,,,,.,.        1      7
