Data manipulation with filters Filters: programs that accept textual data and then transform it in a particular way. head, tail, cut, sort, uniq, sed 5 TaskCommand View the content of a filemore sample_data.txt Get the first 10 lines of the filehead sample_data.txt Get the first 5 lines of the filehead -n 5 sample_data.txt Get all but the last 5 lines of the filehead -n -5 sample_data.txt Get the last 10 lines of the filetail sample_data.txt Get the last 5 lines of the filetail -n 5 sample_data.txt Get all lines starting from line 5tail -n +5 sample_data.txt Get the first three columns of the filecut -f 1-3 sample_data.txt Get selected columns of the filecut -f 1,3,5 sample_data.txt Sort all lines based on the numerical values in the second column (non-numeric entries are interpreted as zero) sort -k 2 -n sample_data.txt

Slide 6

Data manipulation with piping and redirection Piping (|) : sending data from one program to another program. Redirection: sending output from one program to a file >: save output to a file >>: append output to a file 6 TaskCommand Get the first 10 lines of the file and then get the first three columns head sample_data.txt | cut -f 1-3 Get the first 10 lines of the file, then get the first three columns of these lines, and then redirect the content to a new file head sample_data.txt | cut -f 1-3 >sample_data_subset.txt View the new filemore sample_data_subset.txt Append the last 10 lines of the old file to the end of the new file tail sample_data.txt >> sample_data_subset.txt View the new filemore sample_data_subset.txt

Editing files with nano nano is a user-friendly text editor A quick tutorial http://staffwww.fullcoll.edu/sedwards/Nano/IntroToNano.htmlhttp://staffwww.fullcoll.edu/sedwards/Nano/IntroToNano.html 7 TaskCommand Open sample_data.txt for editingnano sample_data.txt Delete the text Line_01 and the space after it, save the file, and then exit In nano, ^O for saving and ^X for exit View the edited filemore sample_data.txt View the content of the.bashrc file, which is located under your home directory. The file includes commands that are executed when starting the system. more ~/.bashrc Open.bashrc file under your home directory for editing.nano ~/.bashrc Add setpkgs a R to the end of this file. This will allow you to use the R environment which has been installed in the ACCRE system for statistical computing. In nano, ^O for saving and ^X for exit View the edited.bashrc filemore ~/.bashrc Run the.bashrc filesource ~/.bashrc

Slide 8

What is R R is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. It includes: an effective data handling and storage facility a suite of operators for calculations on arrays, in particular matrices a large, coherent, integrated collection of intermediate tools for data analysis graphical facilities for data analysis and display either on-screen or on hardcopy a well-developed, simple and effective programming language which includes conditionals, loops, user-defined recursive functions and input and output facilities 8
