Various R Programming Tools for Plotting Data

Various R programming tools for plotting data, including: - calculating and plotting locally smoothed summary function as ('bandplot', 'wapply'), - enhanced versions of standard plots ('barplot2', 'boxplot2', 'heatmap.2', 'smartlegend'), - manipulating colors ('col2hex', 'colorpanel', 'redgreen', 'greenred', 'bluered', 'redblue', 'rich.colors'), - calculating and plotting two-dimensional data summaries ('ci2d', 'hist2d'), - enhanced regression diagnostic plots ('lmplot2', 'residplot'), - formula-enabled interface to 'stats::lowess' function ('lowess'), - displaying textual data in plots ('textplot', 'sinkplot'), - plotting dots whose size reflects the relative magnitude of the elements ('balloonplot', 'bubbleplot'), - plotting "Venn" diagrams ('venn'), - displaying Open-Office style plots ('ooplot'), - plotting multiple data on same region, with separate axes ('overplot'), - plotting means and confidence intervals ('plotCI', 'plotmeans'), - spacing points in an x-y plot so they don't overlap ('space').

Connecting to Various Database Platforms

An R 'DataBase Interface' ('DBI') compatible interface to various database platforms ('PostgreSQL', 'Oracle', 'Microsoft SQL Server', 'Amazon Redshift', 'Microsoft Parallel Database Warehouse', 'IBM Netezza', 'Apache Impala', 'Google BigQuery', 'Snowflake', 'Spark', 'SQLite', and 'InterSystems IRIS'). Also includes support for fetching data as 'Andromeda' objects. Uses either 'Java Database Connectivity' ('JDBC') or other 'DBI' drivers to connect to databases.

Plotting Multi-Dimensional Data

Functions for viewing 2-D and 3-D data, including perspective plots, slice plots, surface plots, scatter plots, etc. Includes data sets from oceanography.

Multivariate Normal and t Distributions

Computes multivariate normal and t probabilities, quantiles, random deviates, and densities. Log-likelihoods for multivariate Gaussian models and Gaussian copulae parameterised by Cholesky factors of covariance or precision matrices are implemented for interval-censored and exact data, or a mix thereof. Score functions for these log-likelihoods are available. A class representing multiple lower triangular matrices and corresponding methods are part of this package.

Methods to Convert R Data to YAML and Back

Implements the 'libyaml' 'YAML' 1.1 parser and emitter (< https://pyyaml.org/wiki/LibYAML>) for R.

Application Directories: Determine Where to Save Data, Caches, and Logs

An easy way to determine which directories on the users computer you should use to save data, caches and logs. A port of Python's 'Appdirs' (< https://github.com/ActiveState/appdirs>) to R.

Parse XML

Bindings to 'libxml2' for working with XML data using a simple, consistent interface based on 'XPath' expressions. Also supports XML schema validation; for 'XSLT' transformations see the 'xslt' package.

Export Data Frames to Excel 'xlsx' Format

Zero-dependency data frame to xlsx exporter based on 'libxlsxwriter' < https://libxlsxwriter.github.io>. Fast and no Java or Excel required.

A Toolbox for Non-Tabular Data Manipulation

Provides a set of functions for data manipulation with list objects, including mapping, filtering, grouping, sorting, updating, searching, and other useful functions. Most functions are designed to be pipeline friendly so that data processing with lists can be chained.

Read Data Stored by 'Minitab', 'S', 'SAS', 'SPSS', 'Stata', 'Systat', 'Weka', 'dBase', ...

Reading and writing data stored by some versions of 'Epi Info', 'Minitab', 'S', 'SAS', 'SPSS', 'Stata', 'Systat', 'Weka', and for reading and writing some 'dBase' files.
