hyperSpec (version 0.98-20140523)

read.txt.long: Import and Export of hyperSpec objects Besides save and load, two general ways to import and export data into hyperSpec objects exist.

Usage

read.txt.long(file = stop("file is required"),
    cols = list(.wavelength = expression(lambda/nm), spc = "I / a.u."),
    header = TRUE, ...)

read.txt.wide(file = stop("file is required"), cols = list(spc = "I / a.u.", .wavelength = expression(lambda/nm)), sep = "", row.names = NULL, check.names = FALSE, ...)

write.txt.long(object, file = "", order = c(".rownames", ".wavelength"), na.last = TRUE, decreasing = FALSE, quote = FALSE, sep = "", row.names = FALSE, cols = NULL, col.names = TRUE, col.labels = FALSE, append = FALSE, ...)

write.txt.wide(object, file = "", cols = NULL, quote = FALSE, sep = "", row.names = FALSE, col.names = TRUE, header.lines = 1, col.labels = if (header.lines == 1) FALSE else TRUE, append = FALSE, ...) file{filename or connection}

cols{the column names specifying the column order.

For data import, a list with elements colname = label; for export a character vector with the colnames. Use wavelength to specify the wavelengths.}

header{the file has (shall have) a header line}

...{arguments handed to read.table and write.table, respectively.}

decreasing{logical vector giving the sort order}

check.names{handed to read.table. Make sure this is FALSE, if the column names of the spectra are the wavelength values.}

object{the hyperSpec object}

order{which columns should be ordered? order is used as index vector into a data.frame with columns given by cols.}

na.last{handed to order by write.txt.long.}

quote,sep,row.names,col.names{have their usual meaning (see read.table and write.table), but different default values.}

col.labels{Should the column labels be used rather than the colnames?}

append{Should the output be appended to an existing file?}

header.lines{Toggle one or two line header (wavelengths in the second header line) for write.txt.wide} Firstly, hyperSpec objects can be imported and exported as ASCII files.

Besides save and load, two general ways to import and export data into hyperSpec objects exist.

A second option is using the package R.matlab which provides the functions readMat and writeMat.

hyperSpec comes with a number of pre-defined functions to import manufacturer specific file formats. For details, see vignette ("file-io").

read.spc imports Thermo Galactic's .spc file format, and ENVI files may be read using read.ENVI.

These functions are very flexible and provide lots of arguments.

If you use them to read or write manufacturer specific ASCII formats, please consider writing a wrapper function and contributing this function to hyperSpec. An example is in the flu vignette (see vignette ("flu", package = "hyperSpec").

Note that R accepts many packed formats for ASCII files, see connections. For .zip files, see unzip.

For further information, see the examples below and the documentation of R.matlab.
