Hi All,
I have a slight issue getting R to plot a series of tables automatically.
Essentially I have a series of tables that I wish to plot. They are named
on_2, on_3 etc. based on the file name when they were read in. I have
filelist <- list.files() to give me list of the table names. I wish to plot
each table, so I was thinking along some kind of for loop as below:
for (i in 1:Number_Files) {
plot(filelist[1])
}
With a few other bits a pieces, however obviously this tries to plot the
character string in filelist, any ideas on how to get R to read the
identically named table and plot that?
Thanks,
Kenny
Hi Kenny,
Take a look at parse() if you want it do your way, but consider the
following much better way. Read the files into a list first not in
seperate R objects, something like:
list_tables = lapply(list.files(), read.table)
?lapply
and plot:
for(tab %in% list_tables) plot(tab)
cheers,
Paul
