To calculate the z score for grouped data, we can use ave function and scale function. For example, if we have a data frame called df that contains a grouping coloumn say GROUP and a numerical column say Response then we can use the below command to calculate the z score for this data −ave(df$Response,df$GROUP,FUN=scale)ExampleConsider the below data frame −grp

To display tick marks on upper as well as right side of the plot, we can create duplicate axes for X as well Y by using scale_x_continuous and scale_y_continuous functions. The argument that will help us in this case is sec.axis and we need to set it to dup_axis as scale_x_continuous(sec.axis=dup_axis()) and scale_y_continuous(sec.axis=dup_axis()). Check out the below example to understand how it can be done.ExampleConsider the below data frame −x

If we have a data frame that contains a character column and a named vector which has the same names as in the character column of the data frame then we can combine this data frame and the vector by using match function be appropriately defining the names and the character column. Check out the below example to understand how it can be done.ExampleConsider the below data frame df1 and the vector v1 −df1

To convert the row values in a matrix to row percentage, we can find the row sums and divide each row value by this sum. For example, if we have a matrix called M then we can convert the row values in M to row percentage by using the commandround((M/rowSums(M))*100,2)ExampleConsider the below matrix −M1

There are two easy methods to select columns of an R data frame without missing values, first one results in a vector and other returns a matrix. For example, if we have a data frame called df then the first method can be used as df[,colSums(is.na(df))==0] and the second method will be used as t(na.omit(t(df))).ExampleConsider the below data frame −df1

When we have a factor column in an R data frame that has two levels and a numerical column then we can apply paired-test on this data frame but the data must be collected for same subjects, otherwise it will not be a paired data. The t.test application on the data discussed here can be done by using the command t.test(y1~x1,data=df), where y1 is the numerical column, x1 is the factor column, and both these columns are stored in data frame called df.ExampleConsider the below data frame −x1
