Order data frame by column and display WITH indices - r

I have the following R data frame
> df
a
1 3
3 2
4 1
5 3
6 6
7 7
8 2
10 8
I order it by the a column with the order function df[ order(df), ]:
[1] 1 2 2 3 3 6 7 8
This is the result I want, BUT, how can list the whole data frame with the permuted indices?
The only thing that works is the following, but it seems sloppy and I don't really understand what it does:
> df[ order(df), c(1,1) ] # I want this but without the a.1 column!!!!
a a.1
4 1 1
3 2 2
8 2 2
1 3 3
5 3 3
6 6 6
7 7 7
10 8 8
Thanks

If we need the indices as well, use sort with index.return = TRUE
data.frame(sort(df$a, index.return=TRUE))

Change the order of numerically named columns in r

If I have a dataframe like the one below which has numerical column names
example = data.frame(1=c(1,8,3,9), 2=c(3,2,3,3), 3=c(5,2,5,4), 4=c(1,2,3,4), 5=c(2,5,7,8))
Which looks like this:
1 2 3 4 5
1 3 5 1 2
8 2 2 2 5
3 3 5 3 7
9 3 4 4 8
And I want to arrange it so that the column names start with three and proceed through five and back to one, like this:
3 4 5 1 2
5 1 2 1 3
2 2 5 8 2
5 3 7 3 3
4 4 8 9 3
I know how to rearrange the position of a single column in a dataset, but I'm not sure how to do this with more than one column in this particular order.
We can use the column index concatenated (c) based on the sequence (:) on a range of values
example[c(3:5, 1:2)]
# 3 4 5 1 2
#1 5 1 2 1 3
#2 2 2 5 8 2
#3 5 3 7 3 3
#4 4 4 8 9 3
As the column names are all numeric, just convert to numeric and use that for ordering
v1 <- as.numeric(names(example))
example[c(v1[3:5], v1[1:2])]
Or simply do
example[c(names(example)[3:5], names(example)[1:2])]
Or another way is with head and tail
example[c(tail(names(example), 3), head(names(example), 2))]
data
example <- data.frame(`1`=c(1,8,3,9), `2`=c(3,2,3,3),
`3`=c(5,2,5,4), `4`=c(1,2,3,4), `5`=c(2,5,7,8), check.names = FALSE)
R will not easily let you create columns with numbers as name. If somehow, you are able to create columns with numbers you can use match to get order in which you want the column names.
example[match(c(3:5, 1:2), names(example))]
# 3 4 5 1 2
#1 5 1 2 1 3
#2 2 2 5 8 2
#3 5 3 7 3 3
#4 4 4 8 9 3

Transforming a looping factor variable into a sequence of numerics

I have a factor variable with 6 levels, which simplified looks like:
1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 1 1 1 2 2 2 2... 1 1 1 2 2... (with n = 78)
Note, that each number is repeated mostly but not always three times.
I need to transform this variable into the following pattern:
1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 7 7 8 8 8 8...
where each repetition of the 6 levels continuous counting ascending.
Is there any way / any function that lets me do that?
Sorry for my bad description!
Assuming that you have a numerical vector that represents your simplified version you posted. i.e. x = c(1,1,1,2,2,3,3,3,1,1,2,2), you can use this:
library(dplyr)
cumsum(x != lag(x, default = 0))
# [1] 1 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 5 5
which compares each value to its previous one and if they are different it adds 1 (starting from 1).
Maybe you can try rle, i.e.,
v <- rep(seq_along((v<-rle(x))$values),v$lengths)
Example with dummy data
x = c(1,1,1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,5,6,1,1,2,2,3,3,3,4,4)
then we can get
> v
[1] 1 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 5 6 7 7 8 8 9 9
[19] 9 10 10
In base you can use diff and cumsum.
c(1, cumsum(diff(x)!=0)+1)
# [1] 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 7 7 8 8 8 8
Data:
x <- c(1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,6,6,6,1,1,1,2,2,2,2)

Formatting R combn output

As a short example, when running combn(1:5,2), I get a matrix of 2 rows and 10 columns.
I know I can convert the output matrix to a data frame, but is it possible (any option inside combn) to have the output readily in the form of a vertical data frame of 2 columns and 10 rows ?
Thanks.
Simply transpose the matrix with t():
data.frame(t(combn(1:5, 2)))
Yields:
X1 X2
1 1 2
2 1 3
3 1 4
4 1 5
5 2 3
6 2 4
7 2 5
8 3 4
9 3 5
10 4 5

Reduce columns of a matrix by a function in R

I have a matrix sort of like:
data <- round(runif(30)*10)
dimnames <- list(c("1","2","3","4","5"),c("1","2","3","2","3","2"))
values <- matrix(data, ncol=6, dimnames=dimnames)
# 1 2 3 2 3 2
# 1 5 4 9 6 7 8
# 2 6 9 9 1 2 5
# 3 1 2 5 3 10 1
# 4 6 5 1 8 6 4
# 5 6 4 5 9 4 4
Some of the column names are the same. I want to essentially reduce the columns in this matrix by taking the min of all values in the same row where the columns have the same name. For this particular matrix, the result would look like this:
# 1 2 3
# 1 5 4 7
# 2 6 1 2
# 3 1 1 5
# 4 6 4 1
# 5 6 4 4
The actual data set I'm using here has around 50,000 columns and 4,500 rows. None of the values are missing and the result will have around 40,000 columns. The way I tried to solve this was by melting the data then using group_by from dplyr before reshaping back to a matrix. The problem is that it takes forever to generate the data frame from the melt and I'd like to be able to iterate faster.
We can use rowMins from library(matrixStats)
library(matrixStats)
res <- vapply(split(1:ncol(values), colnames(values)),
function(i) rowMins(values[,i,drop=FALSE]), rep(0, nrow(values)))
res
# 1 2 3
#[1,] 5 4 7
#[2,] 6 1 2
#[3,] 1 1 5
#[4,] 6 4 1
#[5,] 6 4 4
row.names(res) <- row.names(values)

Separate unique and duplicate entries in dataframe based off id

I have a dataframe with an id variable, which may be duplicated. I want to split this into two dataframes, one which contains only the entries where the id's are duplicated, the other which shows only the id's which are unique. What is the best way of doing this?
For example, say I had the data frame:
dataDF <- data.frame(id = c(1,1,2,3,4,4,5,6),
a = c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8),
b = c(8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1))
i.e. the following
id a b
1 1 1 8
2 1 2 7
3 2 3 6
4 3 4 5
5 4 5 4
6 4 6 3
7 5 7 2
8 6 8 1
I want to get the following dataframes:
id a b
1 1 1 8
2 1 2 7
5 4 5 4
6 4 6 3
and
id a b
3 2 3 6
4 3 4 5
7 5 7 2
8 6 8 1
I am currently doing this as follows
dupeIds <- unique(subset(dataDF, duplicated(dataDF$id))$id)
uniqueDF <- subset(dataDF, !id %in% dupeIds)
dupeDF <- subset(dataDF, id %in% dupeIds)
which seems to work but it seems a bit off to subset three times, is there a simpler way of doing this? Thanks
Use duplicated twice, once top down, and once bottom up, and then use split to get it all in a list, like this:
split(dataDF, duplicated(dataDF$id) | duplicated(dataDF$id, fromLast = TRUE))
# $`FALSE`
# id a b
# 3 2 3 6
# 4 3 4 5
# 7 5 7 2
# 8 6 8 1
#
# $`TRUE`
# id a b
# 1 1 1 8
# 2 1 2 7
# 5 4 5 4
# 6 4 6 3
If you need to split this out into separate data.frames in your workspace (not sure why you would need to do that), assign names to the list items (eg names(mylist) <- c("nodupe", "dupe")) and then use list2env.
