I need to calculate eigenvalues of a series of matrices and then save them in a separate file. My data has 5 columns and 10,000 rows. I use the following functions:
R<-NULL
A <- setwd("c:/location of the file on this computer")
for(i in 0:1){
X<-read.table(file="Example.prn", skip=i*5, nrow=5)
M <- as.matrix(X)
E=eigen(M, only.values = TRUE)
R<-rbind(R,E)}
print(E)
}
As an example I have used a data set with 10 rows and 5 columns. This gives me the following results:
$`values`
[1] 1.350000e+02+0.000e+00i -4.000000e+00+0.000e+00i 4.365884e-15+2.395e-15i 4.365884e-15-2.395e-15i
[5] 8.643810e-16+0.000e+00i
$vectors
NULL
$`values`
[1] 2.362320e+02+0.000000e+00i -4.960046e+01+1.258757e+01i -4.960046e+01-1.258757e+01i 9.689475e-01+0.000000e+00i
[5] 1.104994e-14+0.000000e+00i
$vectors
NULL
I have three questions and I would really appreciate any help:
I want to save the results in consecutive rows, such as:
Eigenvalue(1) Eigenvalue(3) Eigenvalue(5) Eigenvalue(7) Eigenvalue(9) Eigenvalue(2) Eigenvalue(4) Eigenvalue(6) Eigenvalue(8) Eigenvalue(10)
any thoughts?
Also, I don't understand the eigenvalues in the output. They are not numbers. For example, one of them is 2.362320e+02+0.000000e+00i. My first though was that this is the sum of five determinants for a 5x5 matrix. However, "2.362320e+02+0.000000e+00i" seems to only have four numbers in it. Any thoughts? Doesn't
eigen
() function calculate the final values of eigenvalues?how can I save my outcome on an Excel file? I have used the following codes
However, the result I get from the current codes are:
> class(R)
[1] "matrix"
> print(R)
values vectors
E Complex,5 NULL
E Complex,5 NULL
