When to export a numbers file to csv the minus signs don't work with R

Friends,
I have trouble getting the statistic program R to read my exported CSV-files from Numbers.
The minus sign doesn't work, R reads it as a factoric input rather than numeric.
Does anyone have a tip how to reformat this?
Jocke

Wayne, actually, I'm not sure but I think that factoric - or factorial is the denomination that R uses to say that somthing is rather a text than a numeric number - I'm pretty new to R.
But, anyway, we solved the problem but in a lillte bit of an awkward way.
The problem is that the minus sugns in numbers is percieved as dashes in R
(http://www.R-project.org, a free-ware statistical analysis program)
So where there is a numeric input with a minus sign R thinks it is a letter rather than a number.
We solved it by exporting the numbers file to CSV, opened it in text editor, copied the suspisios minus sign and pasted it into the search field to find all dashes/minus sign that didn't work and replaced them with a minus sign. After this operation, nothing different could be seen in the text but R saw the difference.
So this makes it difficult to explain by posting a screenshot - it looks the same but it isn't.
The funny thing is that the dashes that numbers use when to express a date are percieved as minus signs by R.
Can anyone understand what I tried to explain? And if so, is there a simpler way to do this? We have a lot of minus signs to export to R.....
best regard

  • When I export a PNG file on illustrator, I get random empty space along with my exported object. Is there any way I can make just my object export and nothing more?

    This is an example of my problem. This icon is the sole object in this document, and is the only thing being exported here. Yet when I do export it, a random bar of white space is exported along with it. I am currently using Illustrator to design the art for a video game, meaning that this empty space plays havoc with my end product, and I have to meticulously crop anything I export. Since I do have to make hundreds of individual sprites for this, I would love to learn how to fix this problem and save myself a lot of time. So, what exactly am I doing wrong here, and how can I fix it?

    quicklite,
    I believe the resulting/final size may extend just a tiny bit above a whole point/pixel (value) on the pixel grid.
    You may see by Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds (if needed), then select one of the top Reference Points in the Transform palette and look at the Y value measured in points/pixels.
    If that is the case, the solution would be to get rid of that tiny bit.

  • When I want to open a new tab the plus sign doesn't work. What do I do to make that feature work?

    This is a problem that I have found many work arounds to but I do not like to have to click on several things or push several buttons and would rather just click on the plus sign like in my sub accounts for win7.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • [Windows] Captive runtime bundle package certificate signing don't work when icons included

    Here is the bugbase ticked: Bug#3949990 - [Windows] Captive runtime bundle package certificate signing don't work when icons included
    Application signing don't work when you build captive runtime bundle package which include icons. Don't matter application icons or associated file types icons. It works fine when you build application bundle without icons.
    It's a very critical issue, please fix it ASAP.
    Also application signing don't work if you using AIR SDK beta: Bug#3950022 - [Windows] Application signing don't work with AIR SDK beta
    I'd like to ask everyone affected by this issue to take a minute and vote for the following bugs.

  • When I export my number file in Excel, I can not open the spreadsheet : Invalid Reference, what's wrong ?

    When I export my number file in Excel, I can not open the spreadsheet : Invalid Reference, what's wrong ?

    "Invalid reference" usually means there is a cell reference in a formula to a cell that does not exist in the document.
    In this case, it could mean that your Numbers document uses a feature that is not supported by MS Excel, and because of that, the document cannot be translated into an Excel file.
    A more specific answer would require a more detailed description of your Numbers document.

  • When I export a AAF file from Protools 9 and Import the file into Logic ProX the drum track is out of sync.  I created the drum loop using NI Maschine.  Has anyone else seem this??

    When I export an AAF file/project from Protools 9 using an external drive and import the AAF into Logice Pro X the drum track does not play correctly.  It is out of sync with the rest of the track.  I created the drum loop as a plugin using Native Instruments Maschine. Has anyone else had this problem??  Also how would I go about exporting the midi tracks from the Protools session.  The midi track does not show when the file is imported to Logic Pro X.  The midi data should export with the AAF file correct??

    Are you using any plugins in Logic?
    In Preferences/Audio  under the General tab, how do you have the plug-in-latency compensation set?

    Hey iWeb plubishing problems,
    I would first check to make sure that you meet the system requirements for OS X to support Documents in the Cloud. For that your Mac’s needs to be running at least OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later to make sure that everything syncs. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages?

    Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages? They do not load or play correctly.  They are both configured to play automatically with a .125 second delay and both have a white rectangle "poster" over for a hidden effect.

    Thanks for the idea, Scott! I initially tried your idea, but my OAM files were still not loading correctly.  I tried other combinations of OAM files, and it seems to work fine.
    Back to my original OAM files: I made sure that my elements in my Edge Animate project had different names. I originally copied parts of some elements from one to another, and I think it was confusing to DPS to read it.

    Why when I export photos from I photo to the desk top , and then to a CD they end up as alis  and some are not really there?

    Why? Because of something you are doing wrong - however unless you actually tell us what you are doing - and what version of iPhoto you have - and any other detail that might help no one can even gess.
    Exactly how are you exporting? Are the photos successfully exported to the desktop? How are you moving to the CD? why do you think they are not there?

  • How do I export my video in 500x500 resolution? I know there's a feature in Final Cut Express that allows me to make custom dimensions when I export but I can't find the same in FCPX

    How do I export my video in 500x500 resolution? I know there's a feature in Final Cut Express that allows me to make custom dimensions when I export but I can't find the same in FCPX.

    Tom is right, BUT! ...the newest version of Compressor (41.) allows you to do just THAT! ...to export custom sizes.
    It's easy. And... once you set it up, you can export DIRECTLY from FCPX, provided you've saved / added this scheme as a "destination" in the FCPX app.
