Suppose we have a list of mumbers called nums, and find the length of the longest sublist in nums such that the equality relation between every consecutive numbers changes alternatively between less-than and greater-than operation. The first two numbers' inequality may be either less-than or greater-than.So, if the input is like nums = [1, 2, 6, 4, 5], then the output will be 4, as the longest inequality alternating sublist is [2, 6, 4, 5] as 2 < 6 > 4 < 5.To solve this, we will follow these steps −Define a function get_direction(). This will take a, breturn 0 ... Read More

To create predictive models, it is necessary to create three subsets of a data set for the purpose of training the model, testing the model and checking the validation of the model. These subsets are usually called train, test and validation. For this purpose, we can use different type of sampling methods and the most common is random sampling. In the below example, you can see how it can be done.Consider the mtcars data set in base R −Example Live Demodata(mtcars) str(mtcars)Output'data.frame':32 obs. of 11 variables: $ mpg : num 21 21 22.8 21.4 18.7 18.1 14.3 24.4 22.8 19.2 ... ...

A histogram using weights represent the weighted distribution of the values. In R, we can use weighted.hist function of plotrix package to create this type of histogram and we just need the values and weights corresponding to each value. Since plotrix is not frequently used, we must make sure that we install this package using install.packages("plotrix") then load it in R environment.Loading plotrix package −library("plotrix")Consider the below vector and the weight associated with that vector −Examplex

To find the critical value for t test in R, we need to use qt function. This function requires level of significance and the sample size and returns the tabulated or critical value of t distribution. Below examples shows the calculation of critical value for different situations such as left-side test, right-side test or two-sided test.Left side critical value with sample size 30 and 95% confidence level −Example Live Demoqt(0.05, 30)Output[1] -1.697261Right side critical value with sample size 30 and 95% confidence level −Example Live Demoabs(qt(0.05, 30))Output[1] 1.697261 Example Live Demoqt(0.05, 50)Output[1] -1.675905Example Live Demoabs(qt(0.05, 50))Output[1] 1.675905 Example Live Demoqt(0.01, 50)Output[1] -2.403272Example Live Demoabs(qt(0.01, 50))Output[1] 2.403272 ...

Data analysis is a difficult task because it has so much variation in terms of the smaller objectives of a big project. One of the smallest tasks could be finding the minimum value in each row contained in a data frame. For this purpose, we cam use apply function and pass the FUN argument as min so that we can get minimum values.Consider the below data frame −Example Live Demoset.seed(101) x1

To perform the correlation test in R, we need to use cor.test function with two variables and it returns so many values such as test statistic value, degrees of freedom, the p-value, the confidence interval, and the correlation coefficient value. If we want to extract the correlation coefficient value from the correlation test output then estimate function could be used as shown in below examples.Example Live Demox1

The binomial data has two parameters, the sample size and the number of successes. To find the 95% confidence interval we just need to use prop.test function in R but we need to make sure that we put correct argument to FALSE so that the confidence interval will be calculated without continuity correction. In the below examples, we have found the 95% confidence interval for different values of sample size and number of successes.Example Live Demoprop.test(x=25, n=100, conf.level=0.95, correct=FALSE)Output1-sample proportions test without continuity correction data: 25 out of 100, null probability 0.5 X-squared = 25, df = 1, p-value = 5.733e-07 ...

When we have factor column that helps to differentiate between numerical column then we might want to find the maximum value for each of the factor levels. This will help us to compare the factor levels in terms of their maximum and if we want to do this by getting all the columns in the data frame then aggregate function needs to be used with merge function.Consider the below data frame −Example Live Demoset.seed(78) Group

Suppose we have a list of numbers. We have to find the length of longest increasing subsequence. So if the input is like [6, 1, 7, 2, 8, 3, 4, 5], then the output will be 5, as the longest increasing subsequence is [2, 3, 4, 5, 6].To solve this, we will follow these steps −Make an array called tails whose size is same as nums, and fill this with 0.size := 0for each element x in nums array −i := 0, j := sizewhile i is not same as j, thenmid := i + (j – i)/2if tails[mid] < ...

If we have a matrix that contains NA or Inf values and we want to take the subset of that matrix with finite values then only the rows that do not contain NA or Inf values will be the output. We can do this in R by using rowSums and is.finite function with negation operator !.Example Live Demoset.seed(999) M1
