I have data that looks like this:
> head(data)
groupname ob_time dist.mean dist.sd dur.mean dur.sd ct.mean ct.sd
1 rowA 0.3 61.67500 39.76515 43.67500 26.35027 8.666667 11.29226
2 rowA 60.0 45.49167 38.30301 37.58333 27.98207 8.750000 12.46176
3 rowA 120.0 50.22500 35.89708 40.40000 24.93399 8.000000 10.23363
4 rowA 180.0 54.05000 41.43919 37.98333 28.03562 8.750000 11.97061
5 rowA 240.0 51.97500 41.75498 35.60000 25.68243 28.583333 46.14692
6 rowA 300.0 45.50833 43.10160 32.20833 27.37990 12.833333 14.21800
Each groupname is a data series. Since I want to plot each series separately, I've separated them like this:
> A <- zoo(data[which(groupname=='rowA'),3:8],data[which(groupname=='rowA'),2])
> B <- zoo(data[which(groupname=='rowB'),3:8],data[which(groupname=='rowB'),2])
> C <- zoo(data[which(groupname=='rowC'),3:8],data[which(groupname=='rowC'),2])
ETA:
Thanks to gd047: Now I'm using this:
z <- dlply(data,.(groupname),function(x) zoo(x[,3:8],x[,2]))
The resulting zoo objects look like this:
> head(z$rowA)
dist.mean dist.sd dur.mean dur.sd ct.mean ct.sd
0.3 61.67500 39.76515 43.67500 26.35027 8.666667 11.29226
60 45.49167 38.30301 37.58333 27.98207 8.750000 12.46176
120 50.22500 35.89708 40.40000 24.93399 8.000000 10.23363
180 54.05000 41.43919 37.98333 28.03562 8.750000 11.97061
240 51.97500 41.75498 35.60000 25.68243 28.583333 46.14692
300 45.50833 43.10160 32.20833 27.37990 12.833333 14.21800
So if I want to plot dist.mean against time and include error bars equal to +/- dist.sd for each series:
how do I combine A,B,C dist.mean and dist.sd?
how do I make a bar plot, or perhaps better, a line graph of the resulting object?
