Hi all,
I have a file with a dozen weather stations with a dozen weather
variables. I am trying to get a percentile of each variable for each
station. I imported the file into a data frame Data.
To get the percentile for Temperature for Baxley weather station, I used
the following 2 statements.
> BaxleyList[1] <- data.frame(quantile(subset(Data, (Name=='Baxley' &
Temp>-50), select=Temp),probs=seq(0,1,0.01),na.rm=T,names=T))
> colnames(BaxleyList)[1] <- 'Temp'
With this success, I want to loop through the station list. But, I ran
into problem in the variable name "BaxleyList".
I tried the following:
#StationNames
> StationNameList <- unique(Data$Name)
> for (i in 1:1)
{
ThisStation <- StationNameList[i]
ThisStationList <- paste(ThisStation,'List',sep="")
ThisStationList[1] <- data.frame(quantile(subset(Data,
(Name==ThisStation & Temp>-50),
select=Temp),probs=seq(0,1,0.01),na.rm=T,names=T))
colnames(ThisStationList)[1] <- 'Temp'
}
But, ThisStationList will not give me BaxleyList.
Thank you for all your helps in advance!
