I have a dataset of around 1.5 L observations and 2 variables: name and amount. name can have same value again and again, for example a name ABC can appear 50 times in the dataset.
I want a new data frame with two variables: name and total amount, where each name has a unique value and total amount is the sum of all amounts in previous dataset. For example if ABC appears three times with amount == 1, 2 and 3 respectively in the previous dataset then in the new dataset, ABC will only appear one time with total amount == 6.

You can use data.table for big datasets:
library(data.table)
res<- setDT(df)[, list(Total_Amount=sum(amount)), by=name]
Or use dplyr
library(dplyr)
df %>%
group_by(name) %>%
summarise(Total_Amount=sum(amount))
Or as suggested by #hrbrmstr,
count(df, name, wt=amount)
data
set.seed(24)
df <- data.frame(name=sample(LETTERS[1:5], 25, replace=TRUE),
amount=sample(150,25, replace=TRUE))

I have a DataFrame with three columns:region, year, grdp.
How do I group data with the same name in 'region' column.
Here's the code to create a sample dataset:
Here's the desired result:
store data of values with the same name in the 'region' column
ex) 'region' column has three "서울특별시" data. I want to group the three "서울특별시" data in three columns and assign it to a variable
I'm not completely understanding the question, but I think one of these two might solve what you're looking for?
library(dplyr)
df <- data.frame(region=sample(c('x','y','z'),100,replace=TRUE),
year=sample(c(2017,2018,2019),100,replace=TRUE),
GRDP=sample(200000000:400000000,100))
regions <- unique(df$region)[order(unique(df$region))]
#OPTION 1
for(i in 1:length(regions)){
assign(tolower(LETTERS[i]),df %>% filter(region==regions[i]))
}
a
b
c
#OPTION 2
ltrs <- tolower(LETTERS[1:length(regions)])
df['ex)'] <- sapply(df$region,FUN=function(x){ltrs[which(regions==x)]})
head(df)

I am currently trying to decrease the values in a column randomly according to a given sum.
For example, if the main data is like this;
ID Value
1 4
2 10
3 16
after running the code the sum of Value should be 10 and this need to be done randomly(the decrease for each member should be chosen randomly)
ID Value
1 1
2 8
3 1
Tried several command and library but could not manage it. Still a novice and
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
Edit: Sorry I was not clear enough. I would like to assign a new value for each observation smaller than original (randomly). And at the end new sum of value will be equal to 10
Using the sample data
dd <- read.table(text="ID Value
1 4
2 10
3 16", header=TRUE)
and the dplyr + tidyr library, you can do
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
dd %>%
mutate(ID=factor(ID)) %>%
uncount(Value) %>%
sample_n(10) %>%
count(ID, name = "Value", .drop=FALSE)
Here we repeat the row once for each Value, then we randomly sample 10 rows, then we count them back up. We turn ID to a factor to make sure IDs with 0 observations are preserved.

I have two columns x and y. I want to have one column which contains the ranking for both columns. I thought about sum both column and then get it ranked, does any one have a function that rank two columns in r?
Many thanks
If you are just wanting to use the rank function as you suggest:
df1 <- data.frame(x = rnorm(10), y = rnorm(10))
apply(df1, 2, rank) # 2 columns with separate rankings
rank(rowSums(df1)) # sum by rows first, then rank
rank(rowMeans(df1)) # avg by rows first, then rank (same result!)

I have an R dataframe with the dimension 32 x 11. For each row I would like to determine the highest value, the second highest, and the third highest value and add these values as extra colums to the initial dataframe (32 x 14). Many thanks in advance!
library(car)
data(mtcars)
mtcars
First, create a function to get the nth highest value for a vector. Then, create a copy of the dataframe, since the second highest value may change as you add more columns. Then apply your function using apply and 1 to operate row-wise. I'm not sure what would happen if there are NAs in the data. I haven't tested it...
Something like this...
nth_highest <- function(x, n)sort(x, decreasing=TRUE)[n]
tmp <- mtcars
mtcars$highest <- apply(tmp, 1, function(x)nth_highest(x,1))
mtcars$second_highest <- apply(tmp, 1, function(x)nth_highest(x,2))
mtcars$third_highest <- apply(tmp, 1, function(x)nth_highest(x,3))
rm(tmp)

I've just started learning R. I wanted to know how can I find the lowest value in a column for a unique value in other column. For example, in this case I wanted to know the lowest avg price per year.
I have a data frame with about 7 columns, 2 of them being average price and year. The year is obviously recurrent ranges from 2000 to 2009. The data also has various NA's in different columns.
I have very less idea about running a loop or whatsoever in this regard.
Thank you :)
my data set looks something like this:
avgprice year
332 2002
NA 2009
5353 2004
1234 NA and so on.
To break down my problem to find first five lowest values from year 2000-2004.
s<-subset(tx.house.sales,na.rm=TRUE,select=c(avgprice,year)
s2<-subset(s,year==2000)
s3<-arrange(s2)
tail(s2,5)
I know the code fails miserably. I wanted to first subset my dataframe on the basis of year and avgprice. Then sort it for each year through 2000-2004. Arrange it and using tail() print the lowest five. However I also wanted to ignore the NAs
You could try
aggregate(averageprice~year, df1, FUN=min)
Update
If you need to get 5 lowest "averageprice" per "year"
library(dplyr)
df1 %>%
group_by(year) %>%
arrange(averageprice) %>%
slice(1:5)
Or you could use rank in place of arrange
df1 %>%
group_by(year) %>%
filter(rank(averageprice, ties.method='min') %in% 1:5)
This could be also done with aggregate, but the 2nd column will be a list
aggregate(averageprice~year, df1, FUN=function(x)
head(sort(x),5), na.action=na.pass)
data
set.seed(24)
df1 <- data.frame(year=sample(2002:2008, 50, replace=TRUE),
averageprice=sample(c(NA, 80:160), 50, replace=TRUE))
