Jim You might also want to check out the seriation package, which provides tools to reorder your matrix to better reveal any patterns in the data.

[R] Converting a data frame to matrix
Hello: I have a tab delim file with 100 rows and 100 columns. I have numerical values in this table. What I want is to create an image color map with color gradation. my values range from -5 to 0. max value is 0. to acheive this, I need to convert my data.frame into matrix. I tried following : mydf - read.table('mytable',sep='\t',header=T) mydf1 - mydf[,2:100] colnames(mydf1) - as.character(mydf[,1]) here comes the trouble: mymat - as.matrix(mydf1) -- numerical values become character values. -1 becomes -1 mymat - data.matrix(mydf1) -- whole matrix is filled with 1,2 and 3. Is there any other way I can do this. say row names are city schools colnames are student names appreciate your help.

Re: [R] Converting a data frame to matrix
Do an 'str' on your data so that we see what it contains. It may appear to be numbers, but they might also be factors as a result of the read.table.
