X value of each element in list - r

how do I get the x value of each element in the list.
example:
list1 <- list(1:3,4:6)
list1
#[[1]]
#[1] 1 2 3
#
#[[2]]
#[1] 4 5 6
Imaginary function I'm looking for:
function(list1, 1)
# [1] 1 4
function(list2, 2)
# [1] 2 5
How can I do this?

Use sapply or lapply, in combination with the [ extraction function (see ?Extract for more info) like so:
> sapply(list1,"[",1)
[1] 1 4
...or with a list output:
> lapply(list1,"[",1)
[[1]]
[1] 1
[[2]]
[1] 4

How to extract the mimimum values from the list of list and give them a name in r

I have a list of a list with high complicated data. I would like to compare the values of each list and extract the smallest values. For simplicity, I provide a similar example.
s <- c(1,2,3)
ss <- c(4,5,6)
S <- list(s,ss)
h <- c(4,8,7)
hh <- c(0,3,4)
H <- list(h,hh)
HH <- list(S,H)
I would like to compare the element of each list with the element of the corresponding list and extract the smallest values. For example, the following are the values of HH list.
> HH
[[1]]
[[1]][[1]]
[1] 1 2 3
[[1]][[2]]
[1] 4 5 6
[[2]]
[[2]][[1]]
[1] 4 8 7
[[2]][[2]]
[1] 0 3 4
Now, I would like to compare
[[1]]
[[1]][[1]]
[1] 1 2 3
with
[[2]]
[[2]][[1]]
[1] 4 8 7
For example, 1 < 4, so I will select 1. For the second element, 2 < 8, so I will select 2. So, I would like to compare the elements of [[1]][[1]] with the elements of [[2]][[1]], and [[1]][[2]] with [[2]][[2]].
Then, I would like to print the name of the list. For example,
I expected to have similar to the following:
1 < 4, the first element of the first model is selected.
We could use a general solution (i.e. if there are many list elements) transpose from purrr to rearrange the list elements, and then use max.col to get the index
library(magrittr)
library(purrr)
HH %>%
transpose %>%
map(~ .x %>%
invoke(cbind, .) %>%
multiply_by(-1) %>%
max.col )
#[[1]]
#[1] 1 1 1
#[[2]]
#[1] 2 2 2
Or using base R
do.call(Map, c(f = function(...) max.col(-1 * cbind(...)), HH))
#[[1]]
#[1] 1 1 1
#[[2]]
#[1] 2 2 2
Maybe you can try this -
Map(function(x, y) as.integer(x > y) + 1, HH[[1]], HH[[2]])
#[[1]]
#[1] 1 1 1
#[[2]]
#[1] 2 2 2
This gives the position of the element selected.

How to create bijection between two lists?

Good afternoon !
I'm wanting to transform a list like the following :
list_1= list(c(1,30,25),c(51,70),c(102,130,125))
to be :
list_2=list(c(1,2,3),c(4,5),c(6,7,8))
I know that we can retrieve list_1 lengths with :
lengths(list_1)
3 2 3
The list_2 represent indices of list_1 elements ( in case we unlist them ) .
I hope my question is clear , thank you for help in advance !
Using split.
ll <- lengths(list_1)
unname(split(seq(unlist(list_1)), rep(seq(ll), ll)))
# [[1]]
# [1] 1 2 3
#
# [[2]]
# [1] 4 5
#
# [[3]]
# [1] 6 7 8
An option with relist
relist(seq_along(unlist(list_1)), skeleton = list_1)
#[[1]]
#[1] 1 2 3
#[[2]]
#[1] 4 5
#[[3]]
#[1] 6 7 8

Convert each row of dataframe to new list in R

I have below sample input data-
> df <- data.frame(a=c(1,2,9),b=c(3,4,5),c=c(2,6,7))
> df
a b c
1 1 3 2
2 2 4 6
3 9 5 7
I am trying to convert rach row into separate list.
My Attempt-
> apply(df,1,as.list)
The above solution converts each row into sublists. But, I am looking for 3 separate list in this case.
nrow(df) = no. of lists
Desired Output-
> list1
$a
[1] 1
$b
[1] 3
$c
[1] 2
> list2
$a
[1] 2
$b
[1] 4
$c
[1] 6
> list3
$a
[1] 9
$b
[1] 5
$c
[1] 7
You can use by and as.list
out <- by(df, 1:nrow(df), as.list)
out
#1:nrow(df): 1
#$a
#[1] 1
#
#$b
#[1] 3
#$c
#[1] 2
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#1:nrow(df): 2
#$a
#[1] 2
#$b
#[1] 4
#$c
#[1] 6
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#1:nrow(df): 3
#$a
#[1] 9
#$b
#[1] 5
#$c
#[1] 7
That creates an object of class by. So you may call unclass(out) in the end.

removing values from each element in a list in R

I was wondering if somebody could help with this problem. I have a list coming out from a function similar to the following:
lis<-vector("list",3)
lis[[1]]<-c(1,2,3)
lis[[2]]<-c(1,2,3)
lis[[3]]<-c(1,2,3)
so it looks like
[[1]]
[1] 1 2 3
[[2]]
[1] 1 2 3
[[3]]
[1] 1 2 3
What I want to do is remove, for example, the first element from each component of the list so it ends up like:
[[1]]
[1] 2 3
[[2]]
[1] 2 3
[[3]]
[1] 2 3
Any ideas would be most welcome.
You can use lapply() and do the index function for each element of the list. The index -1 means without the first element:
lis <- list(a=1:3, b=11:13, c=21:23)
lapply(lis, '[', -1)
# $a
# [1] 2 3
#
# $b
# [1] 12 13
#
# $c
# [1] 22 23

function usage and output of lapply

I am trying to play with function of lapply
lapply(1:3, function(i) print(i))
# [1] 1
# [1] 2
# [1] 3
# [[1]]
# [1] 1
# [[2]]
# [1] 2
# [[3]]
# [1] 3
I understand that lapply should be able to perform print (i) against each element i among 1:3
But why the output looks like this.
Besides, when I use unlist, I get the output like the following
unlist(lapply(1:3, function(i) print(i)))
# [1] 1
# [1] 2
# [1] 3
# [1] 1 2 3
The description of lapply function is the following:
"lapply returns a list of the same length as X, each element of which is the result of applying FUN to the corresponding element of X."
Your example:
lapply(1:3, function(x) print(x))
Prints the object x and returns a list of length 3.
str(lapply(1:3, function(x) print(x)))
# [1] 1
# [1] 2
# [1] 3
# List of 3
# $ : int 1
# $ : int 2
# $ : int 3
There are a few ways to avoid this as mentioned in the comments:
1) Using invisible
lapply(1:3, function(x) invisible(x))
# [[1]]
# [1] 1
# [[2]]
# [1] 2
# [[3]]
# [1] 3
unlist(lapply(1:3, function(x) invisible(x)))
# [1] 1 2 3
2) Without explicitly printing inside the function
unlist(lapply(1:3, function(x) x))
# [1] 1 2 3
3) Assining the list to an object:
l1 <- lapply(1:3, function(x) print(x))
unlist(l1)
# [1] 1 2 3
