How to put labels on a scatterplot that is created plot function in R?
Labelling of points on a scatterplot helps us to identify the pair of observations. For example, if we are plotting weight and height of people then we can label it with person’s name, therefore, we will be able to understand which pair of points belong to which person. This can be done by using text function after creating the scatterplot with plot function.Examplex
Read MoreHow to cbind vectors of different length without repetition of elements of the smaller vector in R?
We can join vectors by columns using cbind and it does not matter whether these vectors are of same length or not. If the vectors are of same length then all the values of both the vectors are printed but if the length of these vectors are different then the values of the smaller vector gets repeated. But we might not want to repeat the values/elements of the smaller vector and it is possible by setting the length of the smaller vector to the length of larger vector, this will create NA values in the smaller at places where the ...
Read MoreHow to merge data frames by row names in R?
Mostly, we merge the data frames by columns because column names are considered prominent in data sets but it is also possible to merge two data frames by using rows. Merging by rows is likely to result in more uncleaned data as compared to the merging by columns. This can be done with the help of merge function and its by argument.ExampleConsider the below data frames −df1
Read MoreHow to select of data.table based on substring of row values for a column in R?
We often create subsets of data in R to perform calculations based on smaller objectives of a whole objective in data analysis projects. Sometimes this subsetting is conditional on strings instead of numeric values. We can also create a subset of data.table on the basis of substring of row values for a column by using grep function.ExampleConsider the below data.table object −x1
Read MoreHow to write a common title for par(mfrow) plots in R?
We can create multiple plots using par(mfrow) on a single plot window in R. It might be possible that all of these plots are different or same as well. Irrespective of the type of plots, we can give a common title to all the plots. This can be a situation where we want to show, say, scatterplots, and histograms of few variables but the object of our analysis is fixed. To write a common title between plots in the plot window we can use mtext and adjust the title position by changing line argument.Exampleset.seed(100) x1
Read MoreHow to rename the factor levels of a factor variable by using mutate of dplyr package in R?
We know that a factor variable has many levels but it might be possible that the factor levels we have are not in the form as needed. For example, if we want to have capital letters as a factor level but the original data has small letters of English alphabets. In this situation we can rename those factor levels by using mutate of dplyr package.ExampleConsider the below data frame −City
Read MoreHow to add a new column at the front of an existing R data frame?
Generally, when we add a new column to an existing R data frame that column is added at the end of the columns but we might need it at the front. This totally depends on our ease of use, familiarity with variables, and their need. We can add a new column at the front of an existing R data frame by using cbind function.ExampleConsider the below data frame −ID
Read MoreHow to replace the values in a matrix with another value based on a condition in R?
A matrix has only numeric values and sometimes these values are either incorrectly entered or we might want to replace some of the values in a matrix based on some conditions. For example, if we have few fives in a matrix then we might want to replace all fives to an another number which is greater than 5 or less than 5.ExampleConsider the below matrix −set.seed(123) M
Read MoreHow to extract a single column of an R data frame as a data frame?
Generally, we extract columns as a vector from an R data frame but sometimes we might need a column as a data frame, therefore, we can use as.data.frame to extract columns that we want to extract as a data frame with single square brackets. The purpose behind this could be merging the column with another data frame.ExampleConsider the below data frame −set.seed(9) x1
Read MoreHow to stop par(mfrow) to create multiple plots in one plot window and create only one plot in R?
When we use par(mfrow), we define the number of plots we want to draw on the plot window and when we draw all the necessary plots then starts again with the first plot. For example, if we set par(mfrow) to (2,2) then we will have four plots on the plot window but if we want to create one plot on the plot window then it does not work, it will show a small plot on the upper left side. To deal with the problem, we can set par(mfrow) to (1,1).Examplepar(mfrow=c(2,2)) x
