Re: [R] Help with regular expressions

I think I would replace all , with . and subsequently replace all first . with , using ^\\. x <- gsub(",", ".", x) gsub("^\\.", ",", x) It's not so elegant, but it is easier to understand than backreferences and complex regex. Best, Ulrik On Tue, 13 Feb 2018, 03:38 Boris Steipe, wrote: > You

You can either use positive lookahead/lookbehind - but support for that is a bit flaky. Or write a proper regex, and use backreferences to keep what you need. R > x <- "abc 1,1 ,1 1, x,y 2,3 " R > gsub("(\\d),(\\d)", "\\1.\\2", x, perl = TRUE) [1] "abc 1.1 ,1 1, x,y 2.3 " B. > On Feb 12, 20

Hi Dennis, How about: # define the two values to search for x<-2 y<-3 # create your search string and replacement string repstring<-paste(x,y,sep=",") newstring<-paste(x,y,sep=".") # this is the string that you want to change thetastring<-"SIGMA(2,3)" sub(repstring,newstring,thetastring) [1] "SIG

Hi Petr and Richard; Thanks for your responses and supports. I just faced a different problem. I have the following R codes and work well. p <- ggplot(a, aes(x=Phenotypes, y=Metabolites, size=abs(Beta), colour=factor(sign(Beta + theme(axis.text=element_text(size = 5)) p1<-p+geom_point() p2<-

Petr, there was a thinko in your response. tmp <- data.frame(m=factor(letters[1:4]), n=1:4) tmp tmp$m <- factor(tmp$m, levels=c("c","b","a","d")) ## right tmp[order(tmp$m),] tmp <- data.frame(m=factor(letters[1:4]), n=1:4) levels(tmp$m) <- c("c","b","a","d") ## wrong tmp[order(tmp$m),] changing

Hi After melt you can change levels of your factor variable. Again with the toy example. > levels(temp$variable) [1] "y1" "y2" "y3" "y4" > levels(temp$variable) <- levels(temp$variable)[c(2,4,1,3)] > levels(temp$variable) [1] "y2" "y4" "y1" "y3" > And you will get graphs with this new levels or
