Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format

[Sunita Patil]

Hello Sir

I have got 150 observations, got 10 posts/ 6 departments/ tasks vary from 5
to 10,

A few of the variables are crossed specially in case of Office boy, where
the tasks are like open the door, put on the lights,

Yes time variable I have used Chron package, so that it works well

My aim for this study is to check the "amount of time and its variability
for groups of tasks"

Its my project work so need to work this out myself if it doesnt work then I
will have to consult a statistician

Thanks for guiding me to put up the question in more clearer way, I will
sure take care next time

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format

[Sunita Patil]

Hello Sir

I had given a sample of my data, As I cannot disclose whole of my data this
is just a sample given

1st column: Posts (GM, Secretary, AM, Office Boy)
2nd Column: Dept (Finance, HR, ...)
3rd column: Tasks (Open the door, Fix an appointment, Fill the register,
etc.) depending on the post
4th column: Average Time required to do the task

So the sample data would look like
*PostsDeptTask Average time*
Office Boy  HR   Open the door  00:00:09
Office Boy  HR   Switch on the lights  00:00:10
Secretary   FinanceFix an appointment   00.00.30
    . .

    . .
    . .

in my data the 1st column is the main category say suppose "Secretary" the
second column is the sub category "HR Dept" the 3rd column is the list of
duties performed by the Secretary from HR dept and 4th column is time
required to perform the duty

so there are many such posts and dept with varied duties and times resp

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format

[Sunita Patil]

yes in my data the 1st column is the main category say suppose "Secretary"
the second column is the sub category "HR Dept" the 3rd column is the list
of duties performed by the Secretary from HR dept and 4th column is time
required to perform the duty

so there are many such posts and dept with varied duties and times resp.

Re: [R] Presentation of data in Graphical format

[Sunita Patil]

I have been using R just very recently, I have gone through this
http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/
a few weeks back but I am not able to understand as to how to choose the
graph amongst them? Can anyone guide me regarding this?

Thanks in advance

Re: [R] Standard Time Stamps

[Sunita Patil]

Hello Jim

Thanx a lot.

Actually since long I was trying

> dts = c("1989-09-28", "2001-01-15", "2004-08-30", "1990-02-09")
> dts
[1] "1989-09-28" "2001-01-15" "2004-08-30" "1990-02-09"
> GMT = timeDate(dts, zone = "GMT", FinCenter = "GMT")
> GMT
GMT
[1] [1989-09-28] [2001-01-15] [2004-08-30] [1990-02-09]
> difftimeDate(GMT[1:2], GMT[-(1:2)])
Time differences in days
[1] -5450  3993
attr(,"tzone")
[1] "GMT"

*But the same was not working for 2008-09-12T23:48:07.747Z

Thank you very much*, *it worked*
