Re: [R] self-defined distance function to be computed on matrix

2012-08-30 Thread zz
Thank you all for the quick responses. Setting 0 with *NA* is the right thing to do. Also Peter, thanks to your package, using the command 'cos <- cor(m,method='pearson',cosine=TRUE,use='p')' you mentioned' makes my life a lot more easier. zz -- V

[R] self-defined distance function to be computed on matrix

2012-08-30 Thread zz
Hello, I have a self-defined function to be computed on each column in a matrix. The basic idea is to ignore the elements that have value of 0 during computation. I should be able to write my own function but it could be computational expensive, so I'd love to ask if anyone may have suggestions

I just realize this: For myVar1, I used colnames to name it firstly, and then convert myVar1 to numeric; However, I forgot to use rownames to name myVar2, instead I thought as.numeric(names(myVar2)) would work. Now I name myVar2 using rownames first, as.numeric(names(myVar2)) is working. Thank

[R] names function not working at the 2nd place in a program

2012-07-26 Thread zz
Hello, I am using names function to name an array. It works first time when I use *as.numeric(names(myVar1)* However, at a place later, when I tried to use a very similar line of code *as.numeric(names(myVar2)*, it always returned 'numeric(0)' (or if I only type 'names(myVar2), it gave me NULL'.

Hello i need some precision about nipals in the chemometrics package in R . When i use nipals in chemometrics i obtain T and P matrix. I really don't understand what to do with these two matrix to obtain the scores for every the component (like in spss fo example) Comp1Comp2 C
