How to concatenate column values and create a new column in an R data frame?
Sometimes we want to combine column values of two columns to create a new column. This is mostly used when we have a unique column that maybe combined with a numerical or any other type of column. Also, we can do this by separating the column values that is going to be created with difference characters. And it can be done with the help of apply function.ExampleConsider the below data frame −> ID Country df1 df1Output ID Country 1 1 UK 2 2 UK 3 3 India 4 4 USA 5 5 USA 6 6 UK 7 7 Nepal 8 8 ...
Read MoreWhy the t.test returns a smallest p-value of 2.2e – 16 in R?
When we perform a t test in R and the difference between two groups is very large then the p-value of the test is printed as 2.2e – 16 which is a printing behaviour of R for hypothesis testing procedures. The actual p-value can be extracted by using the t test function as t.test(“Var1”, ”Var2”, var.equal=FALSE)$p.value. This p-value is not likely to be the same as 2.2e – 16.Example1> x1 y1 t.test(x1, y1, var.equal=FALSE)Output Welch Two Sample t-test data: x1 and y1 t = -3617.2, df = 10098, p-value < 2.2e-16 alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal ...
Read MoreHow to show all X-axis labels in a bar graph created by using barplot function in R?
In base R, the barplot function easily creates a barplot but if the number of bars is large or we can say that if the categories we have for X-axis are large then some of the X-axis labels are not shown in the plot. Therefore, if we want them in the plot then we need to use las and cex.names.ExampleConsider the below data and bar graph −> x names(x) barplot(x)OutputShowing all the X-axis labels −> barplot(x,las=2,cex.names=0.5)Output
Read MoreHow to add a citation in a plot created by using ggplot2 in R?
A footnote is generally used to give references to a document, text or image and it is called citation. It helps the reader or viewer to check out the original source using the new text or image is generated. If we want to give citation to a plot in R using ggplot2 package then we can add labs that has caption option to add the footnotes.ExampleConsider the below data frame −> set.seed(1) > x y df dfOutput x y 1 0.8735462 4.0117812 2 1.6836433 2.8898432 3 0.6643714 1.8787594 4 3.0952808 0.2853001 5 1.8295078 3.6249309 6 ...
Read MoreHow to increase the width of the lines in the boxplot created by using ggplot2 in R?
When we create a boxplot using ggplot2, the default width of the lines in the boxplot is very thin and we might want to increase that width to make the visibility of the edges of the boxplot clearer. This will help viewers to understand the edges of the boxplot in just a single shot. We can do this by using lwd argument of geom_boxplot function of ggplto2 package.ExampleConsider the below data frame −> ID Count df head(df, 20)Output ID Count 1 S1 20 2 S2 14 3 S3 17 4 S4 30 5 S1 17 6 S2 23 7 S3 36 ...
Read MoreHow to concatenate numerical vectors and a string to return a string in R?
In general, the concatenation of numerical vectors and string results in a vector of strings in R. For example, if we want to concatenate 1, 2, 3 with Tutorialspoint using paste function then it will result in a vector as: "Tutorialspoint 1" "Tutorialspoint 2" "Tutorialspoint 3". But if we want it to return as "Tutorialspoint 1 2 3" then we need to use collapse argument with paste function.Example1> x1Output[1] "A" "B" "C" "D" "E" "F" "G" "H" "I" "J"> y1Output[1] 1 9 6 3 8 1 8 5 9 1 2 8 3 8 4 5 10 1 6 3 ...
Read MoreHow to multiply each element of a numerical vector in R?
Sometimes we want to determine the multiplication of all the elements of a vector just like the sum. This might be required to test the changes in the mathematical operations that can be applied to a numerical vector. In base R, we have prod function which works same as sum but give us the multiplication of all the elements of a vector.Example> v1 v1Output[1] 1 2 3 4 5> prod(v1)Output[1] 120 Example> v2 v2Output[1] -0.500466629 0.394771317 0.575743107 0.026982141 0.812697502 [6] 0.995708241 2.198243938 -0.008609976 -0.931337300 -0.073743225> prod(v2)Output[1] 3.228448e-06Example> v3 v3Output[1] 1.7328245888 -0.5772304935 2.5161349689 3.0401656274 0.1669773313 [6] -0.0001252235 0.7649984733 2.4901543043 1.5618729422 2.4392364199> ...
Read MoreHow to combine two vectors while replacing the NA values with the values in the other vector in R?
Sometimes we have vectors with NA values, also there might be a situation that one of vector having an NA at a position and the other vector has the numerical values at the same position. For example, 1, 2, NA and 1, 2, 3. In this case, we might want to combine these two vectors to make a single vector. This can be done by using coalesce function of dplyr package.Example> library(dplyr) > x1 x1Output[1] NA 4 NA 1 2 NA 4 1 4 1 2 3 1 4 2 2 NA 2 2 1Example> y1 y1Output[1] 1 2 3 ...
Read MoreHow to find the column and row indices of values in a matrix using which function in R?
To find the row and column indices of values in a matrix, we cannot simply use which function because it returns the index based on sequence of the numbers in the matrix. For example, if we have a matrix M as below −1 2 3 4 1 6 7 8 1Now if we try to find the index using which(M==1) then it will return 1 5 9Because 1 is placed at 1, 5 and 9.Hence, we need to use arr.ind = TRUE so that the matrix can be read as an array by which function.ExampleConsider the below matrix −> M ...
Read MoreHow to create cumulative sum chart with count on Y-axis in R using ggplot2?
Cumulative sums are often used to display the running totals of values and these sums also help us to identify the overall total. In this way, we can analyze the variation in the running totals over time. To create the cumulative sum chart with count on Y-axis we can use stat_bin function of ggplot2 package.ExampleConsider the below data frame −> x df head(df, 20)Output x 1 1.755900133 2 1.185746239 3 0.821489888 4 1.358420721 5 2.719636441 6 2.885153151 7 1.131452570 8 0.302981998 9 0.433865254 10 2.373338327 11 0.428436149 12 1.835789725 13 2.600838211 14 2.108302471 15 1.164818373 16 1.547473189 17 ...
