hello all!
i have several matrices of data, all of them need specific functions
run on them.
each matrix of data is named lsq.<bsn> where the <bsn> is the variable name
of each basin, e.g. lsq.che is the matrix of data from the chehalis basin
what i want to do is to write a function that does the needed processing
where all i have to do is feed the function the suffix (i.e. <bsn>)
so that from the command line i would type: myfunction(che)
and the function would run on the chehalis dataset. at present, i've
just been editing the function and changing the name of the <bsn> value,
but surely there is an elegant way to do this!
so, this is my meager attempt at doing this using a plotting function:
in this example, i'm trying to use the 'file' as the variable name
but i get 1) no plot and 2) error message saying that cumareas.file is not found
function(file, filename = deparse(substitute(file)))
{
plot(cumareas.file, (lsslp.file[, 4] * 1.5), ylim = c(0, 150), type =
"b", lty = 1, lwd = 1.5, xlab = "Cum.Area", ylab = "Freq.Pct",
pch = "s")
par(new = T, xaxs = "d", yaxs = "d")
plot(cumareaq.file, (lsq.file[, 4] * 1.5), xlab = " ", ylab = " ", type
= "b", lty = 2, lwd = 1.5, pch = "q")
text(100000, 100, "file")
}
thank you in advance for your help
