Using `lapply/Map` or `pmap` for Parallel Mapping of GSEA with GSVA in R: A More Efficient Approach
You can use the lapply/Map function to loop over the columns of ‘data’ and apply the same code as before to each one. Then, you can bind the results together using cbind. Here is an example: library(GSVA) # assuming data is a list of data frames named "name1", "name2", ... out <- do.call(cbind, Map(function(x) { Sig <- unique(x$name) set.seed(8, sample.kind = "Rounding") core <- gsva(expr=as.matrix(data6), gset.idx.list=list(Sig), method="ssgsea") core2 <- as.data.frame(t(core)) colnames(core2)[1] <- names(x)$name core2 }, data, names(data))) out This will create a new data frame out where each row corresponds to one of the original lists (data$name1, data$name2, etc.

Creating Two Separate Y-Scales in R Quantmod Using latticeExtra Package
Creating Two Separate Y-Scales with R quantmod As a trader or investor, visualizing your trading strategy on the same chart as the currency pair can be extremely helpful in understanding its performance. However, when dealing with large values for the trading strategy (such as an initial capital of $10,000) and smaller values for the currency pair (hovering around 1.5), having two separate Y-scales becomes a necessity. In this article, we will explore how to achieve this using R quantmod by leveraging the latticeExtra package.

How to Get Pixel Color at Touch Points on EAGLView in iOS Apps Using OpenGL ES
Understanding EAGLView and Touch Points EAGL (Emacs Accelerated Graphics Library) is a graphics library for iOS and macOS applications. It provides a way to render 2D and 3D graphics on these platforms, with the option to use hardware-accelerated rendering. In this context, we’re interested in EAGLView, which is a subclass of UIView that supports EAGL rendering. An EAGLView can be created by subclassing it and overriding its drawRect: method, where you’ll define your graphics rendering logic.

Integrating PostgreSQL with Azure Data Factory: Alternative Solutions Beyond Self-Hosted IR
PostgreSQL to Azure Data Factory: Exploring Alternative Solutions for Data Integration Introduction As organizations continue to migrate their applications to the cloud, the need to integrate data from on-premise databases with those in the cloud becomes increasingly important. One popular solution for this purpose is Azure Data Factory (ADF), which allows users to create a unified enterprise data fabric that integrates all data sources across on-premises and cloud-based systems. However, integrating ADF with PostgreSQL can be challenging, especially when dealing with self-hosted integration runtime.

Conditional Creation of a New Column in R Based on Multiple Conditions
Conditional Creation of a New Column in R Based on Multiple Conditions In this article, we will explore how to add a new column to an existing dataframe based on multiple conditions. The goal is to create a new column that evaluates the sum of three existing numeric columns and assigns a value of 1 if the sum is 0, indicating all values are 0, and 0 otherwise. Introduction R provides various methods for conditional creation of new columns in dataframes.
