To create a regression line in base R, we use abline function after creating the scatterplot but if we want to have the line dash format then lty argument must also be used with value equals to 2 after defining the regression model inside abline. For example, if we have two columns x and y stored in a data frame called df then the plot with dashed regression line can be created by using −plot(y~x, data=df) abline(lm(df$y~df$x), lty=2)ExampleConsider the below data frame −> x y df dfOutput      x       y 1 5.243553 4.969598 2 4.681088 5.076128 ...

If we have a vector that contains dates as sequence that needs to be plotted on the X-axis and another vector for the response then the plot can be simply created by using the plot function. In the plot function, we would need to pass the dates as the first argument and the response vector as the second argument. Check ou the examples below to understand how it works.Examplex

The quadratic regression model can be plotted by using the plot function but we would need to find the fitted values using the model and this can be done with the help of fitted function. For example, if we have a quadratic model M and the data has an independent variable x then the model against x can be created by using plot(x,fitted(M)).Examplex1

The data collected for the first time is utilised as it is but when we need to go for secondary data to conduct the same or similar study again, we can use new data as well as the primary data. In this type of situations, we might want to randomly organize data rows that includes new and old data. Also, there is a possibility of missing data row which is found at later stage in the study then it can be also added. Hence, a row might be required to added in the existing data frame. This can be done ...

The shortest way to round to the integer value is using trunc function. The trunc function is used to return the largest integer that is smaller than or equal to the actual value, that means it rounds downs to the nearest integer. It works as a ceiling function for negative number and floor function for positive number.Examplex1

First thing you must remember while moving on to post hoc analysis is the null hypothesis of the analysis of variance must be rejected, so that we can claim there exists a difference in the group means. Now, once we achieve that the tukey HSD can be performed simply by using TukeyHSD function in base R.ExampleConsider the below data frame −x1

Generally, the space between two legend entries is not large enough and it becomes difficult to read the legend names if the names are long. In this case, we need to increase the margin between the legend entries/names but this would be required when the legends are horizontally aligned as vertical legends can be read as it is. For this purpose, we can use legend.text argument inside theme function of ggplot2 package.ExampleConsider the below data frame −> x y df dfOutput x y 1 Male 501 2 Female 520Loading ggplot2 package ...

To combine three vectors into a list with corresponding elements representing a single element of the list we can use mapply function. For example, if we have three vectors x, y, and z each having number of elements equal to one-hundred then the list with corresponding elements can be created by using mapply(c,x,y,z,SIMPLIFY=FALSE).Examplex1

To create a plot with tick marks but without axes lines, we first need to create the plot without axes and then add the tick marks. This can be done with the help of plot function and axis function in base R. The axis function will help us to decide where do we need the tick marks and the ticks.Example1> plot(1:10,axes=FALSE) > axis(1,c(1:10),col=NA,col.ticks=1)OutputExample2> x xOutput[1] 5 2 1 2 1Example> plot(x,axes=FALSE) > axis(1,c(1:5),col=NA,col.ticks=1)Output

To convert a matrix into a color matrix, we can make use of image function. There are multiple ways for assigning the colors but the easiest one might be by defining the minimum and maximum value in the matrix. Also, we can do this by using the shades of a single color as shown in the example 3.Example1> M1 M1Output   [, 1] [, 2] [, 3] [, 4] [, 5] [1, ] 6    3    5    4    3 [2, ] 9    4    5    2    5 [3, ] 3    2    6 ...
