Using Diff() in R for multiple columns - r
I would like to calculate the first order difference for many columns in a data frame without naming them explicitly. It works well with one column with this code:
set.seed(1)
Data <- data.frame(
X = sample(1:10),
Y = sample(1:10),
Z = sample(1:10))
Newdata <- as.data.frame(diff(Data$X, lag = 1))
How to I calculate the same for a lot of columns, e.g.[2:200], in a data frame?
I think this does what you want:
as.data.frame(lapply(Data, diff, lag=1))
## X Y Z
## 1 1 -1 -8
## 2 1 4 4
## 3 2 4 -5
## 4 -5 -5 8
## 5 6 2 -1
## 6 1 1 -1
## 7 -3 -4 -2
## 8 4 -3 -2
## 9 -9 8 1
Since data frames are internally lists, we can lapply over the columns. You can use Data[1:2] instead of Data to just do the first two columns, or any valid column indexing.

R rearrange data
I have a bunch of texts written by the same person, and I'm trying to estimate the templates they use for each text. The way I'm going about this is: create a TermDocumentMatrix for all the texts take the raw Euclidean distance of each pair cut out any pair greater than X distance (10 for the sake of argument) flatten the forest return one example of each template with some summarized stats I'm able to get to the point of having the distance pairs, but I am unable to convert the dist instance to something I can work with. There is a reproducible example at the bottom. The data in the dist instance looks like this: The row and column names correspond to indexes in the original list of texts which I can use to do achieve step 5. What I have been trying to get out of this is a sparse matrix with col name, row name, value. col, row, value 1 2 14.966630 1 3 12.449900 1 4 13.490738 1 5 12.688578 1 6 12.369317 2 3 12.449900 2 4 13.564660 2 5 12.922848 2 6 12.529964 3 4 5.385165 3 5 5.830952 3 6 5.830952 4 5 7.416198 4 6 7.937254 5 6 7.615773 From this point I would be comfortable cutting out all pairs greater than my cutoff and flattening the forest, i.e. returning 3 templates in this example, a group containing only document 1, a group containing only document 2 and a third group containing documents 3, 4, 5, and 6. I have tried a bunch of things from creating a matrix out of this and then trying to make it sparse, to directly using the vector inside of the dist class, and I just can't seem to figure it out. Reproducible example: tdm <- matrix(c(1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,3,1,2,2,2,3,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,2,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,4,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,3,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,2,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,3,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,2,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,2,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,2,2,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,2,0,2,2,3,2,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,1,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1,0,2,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,3,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,4,2,4,6,4,3,1,0,1,2,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,2,1,2,2,2,2,1,0,1,2,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,4,5,3,1,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,3,3,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0), nrow=6) rownames(tdm) <- 1:6 colnames(tdm) <- paste("term", 1:229, sep="") tdm.dist <- dist(tdm) # I'm stuck turning tdm.dist into what I have shown
A classic approach to turn a "matrix"-like object to a [row, col, value] "data.frame" is the as.data.frame(as.table(.)) route. Specifically here, we need: subset(as.data.frame(as.table(as.matrix(tdm.dist))), as.numeric(Var1) < as.numeric(Var2)) But that includes way too many coercions and creation of a larger object only to be subset immediately. Since dist stores its values in a "lower.tri"angle form we could use combn to generate the row/col indices and cbind with the "dist" object: data.frame(do.call(rbind, combn(attr(tdm.dist, "Size"), 2, simplify = FALSE)), c(tdm.dist)) Also, "Matrix" package has some flexibility that, along its memory efficiency in creating objects, could be used here: library(Matrix) tmp = combn(attr(tdm.dist, "Size"), 2) summary(sparseMatrix(i = tmp[2, ], j = tmp[1, ], x = c(tdm.dist), dims = rep_len(attr(tdm.dist, "Size"), 2), symmetric = TRUE)) Additionally, among different functions that handle "dist" objects, cutree(hclust(tdm.dist), h = 10) #1 2 3 4 5 6 #1 2 3 3 3 3 groups by specifying the cut height.
That's how I've done a very similar thing in the past using dplyr and tidyr packages. You can run the chained (%>%) script row by row to see how the dataset is updated step by step. tdm <- matrix(c(1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,3,1,2,2,2,3,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,2,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,4,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,3,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,2,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,3,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,2,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,2,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,2,2,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,2,0,2,2,3,2,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,1,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,2,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1,0,2,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,3,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,4,2,4,6,4,3,1,0,1,2,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,2,1,2,2,2,2,1,0,1,2,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,4,5,3,1,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,3,3,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,0,0,0), nrow=6) rownames(tdm) <- 1:6 colnames(tdm) <- paste("term", 1:229, sep="") tdm.dist <- dist(tdm) library(dplyr) library(tidyr) tdm.dist %>% as.matrix() %>% # update dist object to a matrix data.frame() %>% # update matrix to a data frame setNames(nm = 1:ncol(.)) %>% # update column names mutate(names1 = 1:nrow(.)) %>% # use rownames as a variable gather(names2, value , -names1) %>% # reshape data filter(names1 <= names2) # keep the values only once # names1 names2 value # 1 1 1 0.000000 # 2 1 2 14.966630 # 3 2 2 0.000000 # 4 1 3 12.449900 # 5 2 3 12.449900 # 6 3 3 0.000000 # 7 1 4 13.490738 # 8 2 4 13.564660 # 9 3 4 5.385165 # 10 4 4 0.000000 # 11 1 5 12.688578 # 12 2 5 12.922848 # 13 3 5 5.830952 # 14 4 5 7.416198 # 15 5 5 0.000000 # 16 1 6 12.369317 # 17 2 6 12.529964 # 18 3 6 5.830952 # 19 4 6 7.937254 # 20 5 6 7.615773 # 21 6 6 0.000000
Append a data frame to a master data frame if some columns are common [duplicate]
This question already has answers here: Combine two data frames by rows (rbind) when they have different sets of columns (14 answers) Closed 7 years ago. I want to append one data frame to another (the master one). The problem is that only subset of their columns are common. Also, the order of their columns might be different. Master dataframe: a b c r1 1 2 -2 r2 2 4 -4 r3 3 6 -6 r4 4 8 -8 New dataframe: d a c r1 -120 10 -20 r2 -140 20 -40 Expected result: a b c r1 1 2 -2 r2 2 4 -4 r3 3 6 -6 r4 4 8 -8 r5 10 NaN -20 r6 20 NaN -40 Is there any smart way of doing this? This is a similar question but the setup is different.
Check out the bind_rows function in the dplyr package. It will do some nice things for you by default, such as filling in columns that exist in one data.frame but not the other with NAs instead of just failing. Here is an example: # Use the dplyr package for binding rows and for selecting columns library(dplyr) # Generate some example data a <- data.frame(a = rnorm(10), b = rnorm(10)) b <- data.frame(a = rnorm(5), c = rnorm(5)) # Stack data frames bind_rows(a, b) Source: local data frame [15 x 3] a b c 1 2.2891895 0.1940835 NA 2 0.7620825 -0.2441634 NA 3 1.8289665 1.5280338 NA 4 -0.9851729 -0.7187585 NA 5 1.5829853 1.6609695 NA 6 0.9231296 1.8052112 NA 7 -0.5801230 -0.6928449 NA 8 0.2033514 -0.6673596 NA 9 -0.8576628 0.5163021 NA 10 0.6296633 -1.2445280 NA 11 2.1693068 NA -0.2556584 12 -0.1048966 NA -0.3132198 13 0.2673514 NA -1.1181995 14 1.0937759 NA -2.5750115 15 -0.8147180 NA -1.5525338 To solve the problem in your question, you would want to select for the columns in your master data.frame first. If a is the master data.frame, and b contains data that you want to add, you can use the select function from dplyr to get the columns that you need first. # Select all columns in b with the same names as in master data, a # Use select_() instead of select() to do standard evaluation. b <- select_(b, names(a)) # Combine bind_rows(a, b) Source: local data frame [15 x 2] a b 1 2.2891895 0.1940835 2 0.7620825 -0.2441634 3 1.8289665 1.5280338 4 -0.9851729 -0.7187585 5 1.5829853 1.6609695 6 0.9231296 1.8052112 7 -0.5801230 -0.6928449 8 0.2033514 -0.6673596 9 -0.8576628 0.5163021 10 0.6296633 -1.2445280 11 2.1693068 NA 12 -0.1048966 NA 13 0.2673514 NA 14 1.0937759 NA 15 -0.8147180 NA
try this: library(plyr) # thanks to comment #ialm df <- data.frame(a=1:4,b=seq(2,8,2),c=seq(-2,-8,-2)) new <- data.frame(d=c(-120,-140),a=c(10,20),c=c(-20,40)) # we use %in% to pull the columns that are the same in the master # then we use rbind.fill to put in this dataframe below the master # filling any missing data with NA values res <- rbind.fill(df,new[,colnames(new) %in% colnames(df)]) > res a b c 1 1 2 -2 2 2 4 -4 3 3 6 -6 4 4 8 -8 5 10 NA -20 6 20 NA 40
The dplyr- and plyr-based solutions posted here are very natural for this task using bind_rows and rbind.fill, respectively, though it is also possible as a one-liner in base R. Basically I would loop through the names of the first data frame, grabbing the corresponding column of the second data frame if it's there or otherwise returning all NaN values. rbind(A, sapply(names(A), function(x) if (x %in% names(B)) B[,x] else rep(NaN, nrow(B)))) # a b c # r1 1 2 -2 # r2 2 4 -4 # r3 3 6 -6 # r4 4 8 -8 # 5 10 NaN -20 # 6 20 NaN -40
another option is using rbind.fill from the plyr package bring in your sample data toread <- " a b c 1 2 -2 2 4 -4 3 6 -6 4 8 -8" master <- read.table(textConnection(toread), header = TRUE) toread <- " d a c -120 10 -20 -140 20 -40" to.append <- read.table(textConnection(toread), header = TRUE) bind data library(plyr) rbind.fill(master, to.append)
R Function - Count Non Positives
I'm a beginner for R. Please help me with the coding of function as below. Thanks! Create a function named CountNonpositives that takes a numeric dataframe as its only input parameter. This function should return a dataframe with one row for each column of the input dataframe. This output dataframe should have two columns, one giving the name of each column of the input dataframe and the other giving the number of observations of that variable which are not positive. Note: missing values, if any, must be included in the nonpositive count.
The sapply is doing the trick for you. I trust, you can encapsulate it into a function of your specifics. d <- data.frame( x = c(sample(-10:10, 10, replace = TRUE),NA), y = c(sample(-10:10, 10, replace = TRUE),NA), z = c(sample(-10:10, 10, replace = TRUE),NA) ) sapply(d, function(x) sum(x<0 & !is.na(x)) ) Preview - > d x y z 1 5 10 2 2 9 -2 -2 3 -9 10 -2 4 -1 0 0 5 2 -9 7 6 -5 7 -3 7 1 -7 10 8 -10 5 -8 9 8 6 -9 10 -8 10 -4 11 NA NA NA > sapply(d, function(x) sum(x<0 & !is.na(x)) ) x y z 5 3 6
How to reshape a data frame from wide to long format in R?
I am new to R. I am trying to read data from Excel in the mentioned format x1 x2 x3 y1 y2 y3 Result 1 2 3 7 8 9 4 5 6 10 11 12 and data.frame in R should take data in mentioned format for 1st row x y 1 7 2 8 3 9 then I want to use lm() and export the result to result column. I want to automate this for n rows i.e once results of 1st column is exported to Excel then I want to import data for second row. Please Help.
library(gdata) # this spreadsheet is exactly as in your question df.original <- read.xls("test.xlsx", sheet="Sheet1", perl="C:/strawberry/perl/bin/perl.exe") # # > df.original x1 x2 x3 y1 y2 y3 1 1 2 3 7 8 9 2 4 5 6 10 11 12 # # for the above code you'll just need to change the argument 'perl' with the # path of your installer # # now the example for the first row # library(reshape2) df <- melt(df.original[1,]) df$variable <- substr(df$variable, 1, 1) df <- as.data.frame(lapply(split(df, df$variable), `[[`, 2)) > df x y 1 1 7 2 2 8 3 3 9 Now, at this stage we automated the process of inport/transformation (for one line). First question: How you want the data to look like when every line will be treated? Second question: In result, what do you want exactly to put? residual, fitted values? what you need from lm()? EDIT: ok, #kapil tell me if the final shape of df is what you thought: library(reshape2) library(plyr) df <- adply(df.original, 1, melt, .expand=F) names(df)[1] <- "rowID" df$variable <- substr(df$variable, 1, 1) rows <- df$rowID[ df$variable=="x"] # with y would be the same (they are expected to have the same legnth) df <- as.data.frame(lapply(split(df, df$variable), `[[`, c("value"))) df$rowID <- rows df <- df[c("rowID", "x", "y")] > df rowID x y 1 1 1 7 2 1 2 8 3 1 3 9 4 2 4 10 5 2 5 11 6 2 6 12 regarding the coefficient you can calculate for each rowID (which refers to the actual row in the xls file) in this way: model <- dlply(df, .(rowID), function(z) {print(z); lm(y ~ x, df);}) > sapply(model, `[`, "coefficients") $`1.coefficients` (Intercept) x 6 1 $`2.coefficients` (Intercept) x 6 1 so, for each group (or row in original spreadsheet) you have (as expected) two coefficients, intercept and slope, therefore I can't figure out how you want the coefficient to fit inside the data.frame (especially in the 'long' way it appears just above). But if you wanted the data.frame to stay in 'wide' mode then you can try this: # obtained the object model, you can put the coeff in the df.original data.frame # > ldply(model, `[[`, "coefficients") rowID (Intercept) x 1 1 6 1 2 2 6 1 df.modified <- cbind(df.original, ldply(model, `[[`, "coefficients")) > df.modified x1 x2 x3 y1 y2 y3 rowID (Intercept) x 1 1 2 3 7 8 9 1 6 1 2 4 5 6 10 11 12 2 6 1 # of course, if you don't like it, you can remove rowID with df.modified$rowID <- NULL Hope this helps, and let me know if you wanted the 'long' version of df.
How can I loop a data matrix in R?
I am trying to loop a data matrix for each separate ID tag, “1”, “2” and “3” (see my data at the bottom). Ultimately I am doing this to transform the X and Y coordinates into a timeseries with the ts() function, but first i need to build a loop into the function that returns a timeseries for each separate ID. The looping itself works perfectly fine when I use the following code for a dataframe: for(i in 1:3){ print(na.omit(xyframe[ID==i,])) } Returning the following output: Timestamp X Y ID 1. 0 -34.012 3.406 1 2. 100 -33.995 3.415 1 3. 200 -33.994 3.427 1 Timestamp X Y ID 4. 0 -34.093 3.476 2 5. 100 -34.145 3.492 2 6. 200 -34.195 3.506 2 Timestamp X Y ID 7. 0 -34.289 3.522 3 8. 100 -34.300 3.520 3 9. 200 -34.303 3.517 3 Yet, when I want to produce a loop in a matrix with the same code: for(i in 1:3){ print(na.omit(xymatrix[ID==i,]) } It returns the following error: Error in print(na.omit(xymatrix[ID == i, ]) : (subscript) logical subscript too long Why does it not work to loop the ID through a matrix while it does work for the dataframe and how would I be able to fix it? Furthermore did I read that looping requires much more computational strength then doing the same thing vector based, would there be a way to do this vector based? The data (simplification of the real data): Timestamp X Y ID 1. 0 -34.012 3.406 1 2. 100 -33.995 3.415 1 3. 200 -33.994 3.427 1 4. 0 -34.093 3.476 2 5. 100 -34.145 3.492 2 6. 200 -34.195 3.506 2 7. 0 -34.289 3.522 3 8. 100 -34.300 3.520 3 9. 200 -34.303 3.517 3
The format xymatrix[ID==i,] doesn't work for matrix. Try this way: for(i in 1:3){ print(na.omit(xymatrix[xymatrix[,'ID'] == i,])) }
In general, if you want to apply a function to a data frame, split by some factor, then you should be using one of the apply family of functions in combination with split. Here's some reproducible sample data. n <- 20 some_data <- data.frame( x = sample(c(1:5, NA), n, replace= TRUE), y = sample(c(letters[1:5], NA), n, replace= TRUE), id = gl(3, 1, length = n) ) If you want to print out the rows with no missing values, split by each ID level, then you want something like this. lapply(split(some_data, some_data$grp), na.omit) or more concisely using the plyr package. library(plyr) dlply(some_data, .(grp), na.omit) Both methods return output like this # $`1` # x y grp # 1 2 d 1 # 4 3 e 1 # 7 3 c 1 # 10 4 a 1 # 13 2 e 1 # 16 3 a 1 # 19 1 d 1 # $`2` # x y grp # 2 1 e 2 # 5 3 e 2 # 8 3 b 2 # $`3` # x y grp # 6 3 c 3 # 9 5 a 3 # 12 2 c 3 # 15 2 d 3 # 18 4 a 3
