Dear R community,

With an advantage of being "NEW" to R, I would like to post a very basic
query here,

I am in need of representing gene expression data which ranges from -0.09 to
+4, on plot "segment". please find below the data df, the expression values
are in df[,2]. kindly help me with the code, so that I can represent the
values with a clear color gradient (something like -0.09 to 0 as red
gradient and 0 to +4 as green gradient)

Hi karthick,
Here's one way to do it:

library(plotrix)
df[,3]<-NA
df[df[,2]<0,3]<-color.scale(df[df[,2]<0,2],1,c(0,1),c(0,1))
df[df[,2]>0,3]<-color.scale(df[df[,2]>0,2],c(1,0),1,c(0,1))

df[,3] will then be a vector of colors that range from red at the minimum value to white at 0 to green at the maximum value.

Jim
