Mostly, we use histogram to understand the distribution of a variable but if we have an overlay line on the histogram that will make the chart smoother, thus understanding the variation will become easy. To display the curve on the histogram using ggplot2, we can make use of geom_density function in which the counts will be multiplied with the binwidth of the histogram so that the density line will be appropriately created.ExampleConsider the below data frame:> x df head(df, 20)Output x 1 4 2 5 3 6 4 4 5 9 6 ...

The values are increasingly ordered if the first value is less than the second, the second is less than the third, the third is less than the fourth, the fourth is less than the fifth, and so on. In base R, we have a function called is.unsorted that can help us to determine whether the values in a column of an R data frame are increasingly ordered or not. Check out the below examples to understand how it works.Example1> set.seed(3257) > x df1 df1Output x 1 9 2 8 3 8 4 7 5 10 6 2 7 7 ...

To find the column number of minimum values in each row for a data frame, we can use apply function but if we want to return the output in tabular form then matrix function should be used. For example, if we have a data frame df then our problem can be solved by using the code: as.matrix(apply(df, 1, which.min)).ExampleConsider the below data frame:> set.seed(37) > x1 x2 x3 x4 x5 df1 df1Outputx1 x2 x3 x4 x5 1 1 2 4 9 3 2 0 5 8 10 4 3 1 3 8 6 1 4 1 5 5 8 1 ...

Finding group-wise mean is a common thing but if we go for step-by-step analysis then sum of values are also required when we have a categorical variable in our data set. This can be easily done with the help of group_by and summarise_each function of dplyr package.ExampleConsider the below data frame:> Group Salary Emp EmpOutputGroup Salary 1 D 28256 2 B 31092 3 A 23147 4 C 28209 5 B 37676 6 C 33374 7 D 44864 8 B 40152 9 A 25843 10 A 40946 11 D 23321 12 A 42854 13 C 36960 14 A 35285 15 B ...

A data collection process is one of the initial and very important tasks in a data analysis project and sometimes we miss something. Therefore, we need to collect that data later and add it to the originally collected data. This mistake can be done for matrix data as well, hence we might need to add a new column to original matrix and this can be done by using cbind function.Example1> M1 M1Output [, 1] [, 2] [, 3] [, 4] [, 5] [1, ] 1 6 11 16 21 [2, ] 2 7 12 17 22 [3, ] ...

The linear interpolation is a method of fitting a curve using linear polynomials and it helps us to create a new data points but these points lie within the range of the original values for which the linear interpolation is done. Sometimes these values may go a little far from the original values but not too far. In R, if we have some missing values then na.approx function of zoo package can be used to replace the NA with linear interpolation method.Example1Loading zoo package:> library(zoo) > x1 x1Output[1] 2 2 2 5 2 2 5 NA 2 5Replacing NA with ...

The easiest way to create a duplicate column in an R data frame is setting the new column with $ sign and if we want to have a different name then we can simply pass a new name. For example, if we have a data frame df that contains a column x and we want to have a new column x1 having same values as in x then it can be done as df$x1 set.seed(254) > x y z a b c df dfOutputx y z a b c 1 A 0.8709244 9 0.072625990 5.125432 26.84561 2 B 1.7993156 3 ...

A 3D-array is a 3-dimensional array and it is actually a collection of 2D arrays. We can create a 3D-array of a data frame in R by using simplify2array function, this function will break the data frame into arrays that will form a 3D-array.Example1Consider the below data frame:> set.seed(254) > x y z a b c df1 df1Outputx y z a b c 1 0 4 6 9 5 5 2 0 5 1 4 2 1 3 0 6 1 4 5 6 4 1 6 3 5 4 12 5 1 9 8 6 6 11 6 1 ...

The main statistical parameters that are used to create a boxplot are mean and standard deviation but in general, the boxplot is created with the whole data instead of these values. If we don’t have whole data but mean and standard deviation are available then the boxplot can be created by finding all the limits of a boxplot using mean as a measure of central tendency.ExampleConsider the below data frame:> df dfOutputmean sd Category 1 24 1.1 A 2 25 2.1 B 3 27 1.5 C 4 24 1.8 DLoading ggplot2 package and creating the boxplot of each category in ...

To find the confidence interval for a lm model (linear regression model), we can use confint function and there is no need to pass the confidence level because the default is 95%. This can be also used for a glm model (general linear model). Check out the below examples to see the output of confint for a glm model.Example1> set.seed(3214) > x1 y1 Model1 summary(Model1)OutputCall: glm(formula = y1 ~ x1, family = "binomial") Deviance Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -1.6360 -1.4156 0.7800 0.8567 0.9946 Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|) (Intercept) 0.34851 1.17554 0.296 0.767 x1 ...
