Gaurav -
Here's one way:
x = textConnection('ID1 0.342 0.01,1.2,0,0.323,0.67
+ ID2 0.010 0.987,0.056,1.3,1.5,0.4
+ ID3 0.146 0.1173,0.1494,0.211,0.1257
+
+ ')
y = read.table(x,stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
res = apply(y,1,function(x)as.numeric(strsplit(x[3],',')[[1]]))
names(res) = y[,1]
boxplot(res)

Hi all,
I'm a beginner user of R. I am stuck at what I thought was a very obvious
problem, but surprisingly, I havent found any solution on the forum or
online till now.
My problem is simple. I have a file which has entries like the following:
#ID Value1 List_of_values
ID1 0.342 0.01,1.2,0,0.323,0.67
ID2 0.010 0.987,0.056,1.3,1.5,0.4
ID3 0.146 0.1173,0.1494,0.211,0.1257
...
...
I want to split the third column (by comma) into individual values and put
them in a variable so that I can plot a boxplot with those values, one
boxplot per row . I have been having three issues:
1) R identifies the third column as an integer, instead of a list of lists
2) I havent been able to split the third column into individual values
3) How do I get it in a format suitable for plotting a boxplot?
Any suggestions? I'd really appreciate any help on this.
Thank you,
Gaurav
