The column values of an R data frame can be easily extracted by subsetting with single square brackets but if we want to extract the column values that match a pattern then we need to use grepl function inside single square brackets, this will help us to match the pattern of the values in the data frame columns.ExampleConsider the below data frame:> set.seed(271) > x1 x2 df1 df1Output x1 x2 1 A242 B71 2 A123 B71 3 A242 B81 4 A242 B87 5 A123 B71 6 A321 B71 7 A187 ...

Sometimes data is incorrectly entered into systems and that is the reason we must be careful while doing data cleaning before proceeding to analysis. A data collector or the sampled unit might enter blank to an answer if he or she does not find an appropriate option for the question. This also happens if the questionnaire is not properly designed or blank is filled by mistake. Also, if we have categorical variable then a control category might be filled with blank or we may want to have a blank category to use a new one at later stage. Whatever the ...

Suppose we have postfix expression and we have to evaluate the value. Postfix expression is also known as Reverse polish notation. Here we have to use the stack data structure to solve the postfix expressions.So if the expression is “21+3*”, then the answer will be 9.Let us see the steps −for each character ch in the postfix expression, doif ch is an operator $\odot$ , thena := pop first element from stack, b := pop second element from the stackres := b $\odot$ apush res into the stackelse if ch is an operand, thenadd ch into the stackreturn element of ...

Suppose we have n nodes they are labeled from 0 to n-1 and a list of undirected edges [u, v], We have to define a function to check whether these edges make up a valid tree or not.So, if the input is like n = 5, and edges = [[0, 1], [0, 2], [0, 3], [1, 4]], then the output will be trueTo solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a function dfs(), this will take node, par, graph, and another array called visited, if visited[node] is same as 1, then −return trueif visited[node] is same as 2, then ...

If a list has the same length of elements (not sub-elements) as the length of each vector for which we want to create the data frame then we first need to create the data frame of vectors then we can easily add the list into the data frame. But if we have a list and other vectors then data frame cannot be created as data.frame function will read each value of the list separately.Example> df1 df1Output   x y 1  6 1 2  8 1 3  6 2 4  8 1 5  5 1 6  3 1 7  6 1 8 ...

The echelon form of a matrix is the matrix that has the following characteristics:1. The first non-zero element in each row, called the leading entry, is 1.2. Each leading entry is in a column to the right of the leading entry in the previous row.3. Rows with all zero elements, if any, are below rows having a non-zero element.In R, we can use echelon function of matlib package to find the echelon form of the matrix.Example> M MOutput [, 1] [, 2] [, 3] [, 4] [, 5] [1, ] 8 11 3 10 13 [2, ] 9 ...

Suppose we have a string s, we have to find all the palindromic permutations of it, there will be no repetition. If no palindromic permutation is there, then simply return empty string.So, if the input is like "aabb", then the output will be ["abba", "baab"]To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define an array retDefine a function solve(), this will take s, sz, one unordered map m, idx initialize it with 0, if sz is same as 0, then −insert s at the end of retreturnevenFound := falseDefine one set visitedfor each key-value pair it of m, do −if ...

The list elements of two lists cannot be added directly but we can do this addition by unlisting the elements. To do this, we would need to use lapply function. For example, if we have two lists defined as x and y then the sum of the elements in these lists can be calculated as follows:Examplelapply(seq_along(x), function(i) unlist(x[i])+unlist(y[i]))Example1> x1 x1Output[[1]] [1] 0 3 0 1 2 0 1 0 1 3 3 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 2 0 0 6 1 2 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 0 0 [38] 2 ...

Suppose we have a list of strings. We have to design an algorithm that can encode the list of strings to a string. We also have to make one decoder that will decode back to the original list of strings. Suppose we have the encoder and decoder installed on these machines, and there are two different functions as follows −Machine 1 (sender) has the functionstring encode(vector

The bar plot can be easily created with the help of geom_bar. But if we want to have a different border for a particular bar then we first need to create the bar plot and store it in an object. After that we need to add the original plot with the bar for which we want to have a black border. Check out the below example to understand how it can be done.ExampleConsider the below data frame:> Group Freq df dfOutput Group Freq 1 G1 18 2 G2 27 3 G3 24Loading ggplot2 package ...
