Dear All!! I am also new in R and trying to write my results into a file I post here..hopefully is the proper place To be more secific I have this loop
counter = 0 for (i in 1:nrow(y)) { for (j in 1:ncol(y)) { if (y[i,j]=="Func_0005634") { counter = counter + 1 } if(y[i,j]=="Func_0005737"){ counter = counter + 1 } if(y[i,j]=="Func_0005515"){ counter = counter + 1 } } if(counter == 2) { k<-structure(list(print(y[i,1])), class = "data.frame") } if(counter == 3 ){ l<-structure(list(print(y[i,1])), class = "data.frame") } counter = 0 } for counter==2 or counter ==3 I want to get print(y[i,1]) where in column 1 exists the name of the protein whereas in the rest columns exist somewhere randomly the strings im looking for I want to get the names of the proteins in a file and those that have either 2 or 3 functions be named as cancer. the specific part of code gives me as a result in the command line this (is a sample cause im working on 8500lines) [1] Prot_10035 8527 Levels: Prot_0 Prot_1 Prot_10 Prot_100 Prot_1000 Prot_10000 ... Prot_9996 [1] Prot_10041 8527 Levels: Prot_0 Prot_1 Prot_10 Prot_100 Prot_1000 Prot_10000 ... Prot_9996 [1] Prot_10045 8527 Levels: Prot_0 Prot_1 Prot_10 Prot_100 Prot_1000 Prot_10000 ... Prot_9996 which is fine i can see the names of the proteins but i cant use them so to label them When I try to write it in a file ..then is kept only the last result because unfortunatelly he overwrites himself :( How can I use those data? How can I write them in a file and add as an extra column the word cancel for those containing the specific functions? Any hint you may give me it would be more than helpful for me! Thank you a lot in advance!
