Mathematical formulas placed in software that performs an analysis on a data set
This is an introduction to R (“GNU S”), a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. R is similar to the award-winning1 S system, which was developed at Bell Laboratories by John Chambers et al. It provides a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques (linear and nonlinear modelling, statistical tests, time series analysis, classification, clustering, ...). Show

Venables 5 Arrays and matrices5.1 ArraysAn array can be considered as a multiply subscripted collection of data entries, for example numeric. R allows simple facilities for creating and handling arrays, and in particular the special case of matrices. A dimension vector is a vector of non-negative integers. If its length is k then the array is k-dimensional, e.g. a matrix is a 2-dimensional array. The dimensions are indexed from one up to the values given in the dimension vector. A vector can be used by R as an array only if it has a dimension vector as its dim attribute. Suppose, for example, > x <- array(1:20, dim=c(4,5)) # Generate a 4 by 5 array.
> x

[3,] 3 7 11 15 19
[4,] 4 8 12 16 20
> i <- array(c(1:3,3:1), dim=c(3,2))
> i # 8 is a vector of 1500 elements. The assignmentgives it the dim attribute that allows it to be treated as a 3 by 5 by 100 array. Other functions such as > x <- array(1:20, dim=c(4,5)) # Generate a 4 by 5 array.

> i <- array(c(1:3,3:1), dim=c(3,2))
> i # 9 and > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)0 are available for simpler and more natural looking assignments, as we shall see in The > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)0 function. The values in the data vector give the values in the array in the same order as they would occur in FORTRAN, that is “column major order,” with the first subscript moving fastest and the last subscript slowest. For example if the dimension vector for an array, say > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2, is > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)3 then there are 3 * 4 * 2 = 24 entries in > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2 and the data vector holds them in the order > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)5. Arrays can be one-dimensional: such arrays are usually treated in the same way as vectors (including when printing), but the exceptions can cause confusion. 5.2 Array indexing. Subsections of an arrayIndividual elements of an array may be referenced by giving the name of the array followed by the subscripts in square brackets, separated by commas. More generally, subsections of an array may be specified by giving a sequence of index vectors in place of subscripts; however if any index position is given an empty index vector, then the full range of that subscript is taken. Continuing the previous example, > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)6 is a 4 * 2 array with dimension vector > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)7 and data vector containing the values c(a[2,1,1], a[2,2,1], a[2,3,1], a[2,4,1], a[2,1,2], a[2,2,2], a[2,3,2], a[2,4,2]) in that order. > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)8 stands for the entire array, which is the same as omitting the subscripts entirely and using > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2 alone. For any array, say > N <- table(blocks, varieties)0, the dimension vector may be referenced explicitly as > N <- table(blocks, varieties)1 (on either side of an assignment). Also, if an array name is given with just one subscript or index vector, then the corresponding values of the data vector only are used; in this case the dimension vector is ignored. This is not the case, however, if the single index is not a vector but itself an array, as we next discuss. 5.3 Index matricesAs well as an index vector in any subscript position, a matrix may be used with a single index matrix in order either to assign a vector of quantities to an irregular collection of elements in the array, or to extract an irregular collection as a vector. A matrix example makes the process clear. In the case of a doubly indexed array, an index matrix may be given consisting of two columns and as many rows as desired. The entries in the index matrix are the row and column indices for the doubly indexed array. Suppose for example we have a 4 by 5 array > N <- table(blocks, varieties)2 and we wish to do the following:
In this case we need a 3 by 2 subscript array, as in the following example. > x <- array(1:20, dim=c(4,5)) # Generate a 4 by 5 array.
> x

> i <- array(c(1:3,3:1), dim=c(3,2))
> i # Negative indices are not allowed in index matrices. > N <- table(blocks, varieties)7 and zero values are allowed: rows in the index matrix containing a zero are ignored, and rows containing an > N <- table(blocks, varieties)7 produce an > N <- table(blocks, varieties)7 in the result. As a less trivial example, suppose we wish to generate an (unreduced) design matrix for a block design defined by factors > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)0 ( > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)1 levels) and > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)2 ( > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)3 levels). Further suppose there are > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)4 plots in the experiment. We could proceed as follows: > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv) To construct the incidence matrix, > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)5 say, we could use However a simpler direct way of producing this matrix is to use > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)6: > N <- table(blocks, varieties) Index matrices must be numerical: any other form of matrix (e.g. a logical or character matrix) supplied as a matrix is treated as an indexing vector. 5.4 The > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv) 0 functionAs well as giving a vector structure a > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)8 attribute, arrays can be constructed from vectors by the > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)9 function, which has the form > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector) For example, if the vector > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))0 contains 24 or fewer, numbers then the command > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2)) would use > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))0 to set up 3 by 4 by 2 array in > N <- table(blocks, varieties)0. If the size of > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))0 is exactly 24 the result is the same as > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2) However if > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))0 is shorter than 24, its values are recycled from the beginning again to make it up to size 24 (see Mixed vector and array arithmetic. The recycling rule) but > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))5 would signal an error about mismatching length. As an extreme but common example makes > N <- table(blocks, varieties)0 an array of all zeros. At this point > N <- table(blocks, varieties)1 stands for the dimension vector > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)3, and > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))9 stands for the data vector as it was in > Z <- array(h, dim=c(3,4,2))0, and > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)1 with an empty subscript or > N <- table(blocks, varieties)0 with no subscript stands for the entire array as an array. Arrays may be used in arithmetic expressions and the result is an array formed by element-by-element operations on the data vector. The > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)8 attributes of operands generally need to be the same, and this becomes the dimension vector of the result. So if > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)4, > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)5 and > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)6 are all similar arrays, then makes > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)7 a similar array with its data vector being the result of the given element-by-element operations. However the precise rule concerning mixed array and vector calculations has to be considered a little more carefully. 5.4.1 Mixed vector and array arithmetic. The recycling ruleThe precise rule affecting element by element mixed calculations with vectors and arrays is somewhat quirky and hard to find in the references. From experience we have found the following to be a reliable guide.
5.5 The outer product of two arraysAn important operation on arrays is the outer product. If > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2 and > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)1 are two numeric arrays, their outer product is an array whose dimension vector is obtained by concatenating their two dimension vectors (order is important), and whose data vector is got by forming all possible products of elements of the data vector of > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2 with those of > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)1. The outer product is formed by the special operator > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)4: An alternative is The multiplication function can be replaced by an arbitrary function of two variables. For example if we wished to evaluate the function f(x; y) = cos(y)/(1 + x^2) over a regular grid of values with x- and y-coordinates defined by the R vectors > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)5 and > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)6 respectively, we could proceed as follows: > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f) In particular the outer product of two ordinary vectors is a doubly subscripted array (that is a matrix, of rank at most 1). Notice that the outer product operator is of course non-commutative. Defining your own R functions will be considered further in Writing your own functions. An example: Determinants of 2 by 2 single-digit matricesAs an artificial but cute example, consider the determinants of 2 by 2 matrices [a, b; c, d] where each entry is a non-negative integer in the range 0, 1, …, 9, that is a digit. The problem is to find the determinants, ad - bc, of all possible matrices of this form and represent the frequency with which each value occurs as a high density plot. This amounts to finding the probability distribution of the determinant if each digit is chosen independently and uniformly at random. A neat way of doing this uses the > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)7 function twice: > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency") Notice that > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)8 here uses a histogram like plot method, because it “sees” that > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)9 is of class > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency")0. The “obvious” way of doing this problem with > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency")1 loops, to be discussed in Grouping, loops and conditional execution, is so inefficient as to be impractical. It is also perhaps surprising that about 1 in 20 such matrices is singular. 5.6 Generalized transpose of an arrayThe function > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency")2 may be used to permute an array, > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2. The argument > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency")4 must be a permutation of the integers {1, …, k}, where k is the number of subscripts in > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2. The result of the function is an array of the same size as > Xb <- matrix(0, n, b) > Xv <- matrix(0, n, v) > ib <- cbind(1:n, blocks) > iv <- cbind(1:n, varieties) > Xb[ib] <- 1 > Xv[iv] <- 1 > X <- cbind(Xb, Xv)2 but with old dimension given by > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency")7 becoming the new > d <- outer(0:9, 0:9) > fr <- table(outer(d, d, "-")) > plot(fr, xlab="Determinant", ylab="Frequency")8-th dimension. The easiest way to think of this operation is as a generalization of transposition for matrices. Indeed if > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)4 is a matrix, (that is, a doubly subscripted array) then > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)5 given by is just the transpose of > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)4. For this special case a simpler function > evals <- eigen(Sm)$values2 is available, so we could have used > evals <- eigen(Sm)$values3. 5.7 Matrix facilitiesAs noted above, a matrix is just an array with two subscripts. However it is such an important special case it needs a separate discussion. R contains many operators and functions that are available only for matrices. For example > evals <- eigen(Sm)$values4 is the matrix transpose function, as noted above. The functions > evals <- eigen(Sm)$values5 and > evals <- eigen(Sm)$values6 give the number of rows and columns in the matrix > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)4 respectively. 5.7.2 Linear equations and inversionSolving linear equations is the inverse of matrix multiplication. When after only > Z <- h ; dim(Z) <- c(3,4,2)4 and > Z <- array(data_vector, dim_vector)1 are given, the vector > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)5 is the solution of that linear equation system. In R, solves the system, returning > f <- function(x, y) cos(y)/(1 + x^2) > z <- outer(x, y, f)5 (up to some accuracy loss). Note that in linear algebra, formally > x <- array(1:20, dim=c(4,5)) # Generate a 4 by 5 array.

Which type of analytics finds patterns in numerical data?Data mining definition
Data mining, sometimes used synonymously with “knowledge discovery,” is the process of sifting large volumes of data for correlations, patterns, and trends. It is a subset of data science that uses statistical and mathematical techniques along with machine learning and database systems.
What is a data value that is numerically distant from most of the other data points in a set of data?An outlier is any value that is numerically distant from most of the other data points in a set of data. We know that -86 is far below any of the other values in our data set. It is not uncommon to find an outlier in a data set.
