[R] Create a new var reflecting the order of subjects in existing var
Dear R users, Followings are summary the solutions for my question. All the way to Roma! But vote #1 for Jim, the simplest solution. Thank you all of you for yours quick response Regards Nguyen # I have a data set sth like this: set.seed(123);dat <- data.frame(ID= c(rep(1,2),rep(2,3), rep(3,3), rep(4,4), rep(5,5)), var1 =rnorm(17, 35,2), var2=runif(17,0,1)) # I would like to create a new var in dat which reflects the order of each subject (ID), like this # ID var1 var2 IDorder # 1 1 33.87905 0.02461368 1 # 2 1 34.53965 0.47779597 2 # 3 2 38.11742 0.75845954 1 # 4 2 35.14102 0.21640794 2 # 5 2 35.25858 0.31818101 3 # 6 3 38.43013 0.23162579 1 # 7 3 35.92183 0.14280002 2 # 8 3 32.46988 0.41454634 3 # 9 4 33.62629 0.41372433 1 # 10 4 34.10868 0.36884545 2 # 11 4 37.44816 0.15244475 3 # 12 4 35.71963 0.13880606 4 # 13 5 35.80154 0.23303410 1 # 14 5 35.22137 0.46596245 2 # 15 5 33.88832 0.26597264 3 # 16 5 38.57383 0.85782772 4 # 17 5 35.99570 0.04583117 5 ##SOLUTIONS # 1st (by Christos Hatzis) y <- rle(dat$ID) # rle: Run Length Endcoding dat$IDorder1 <- unlist(sapply(y$lengths, FUN=function(x) seq(1,x))) dat # 2st (by Chaliraos Skiadas) dat$IDorder2 <- unlist(tapply(dat$ID,factor(dat$ID), function(x) 1:length(x)),use.names=FALSE) dat #3rd (Jim Holtman) dat$IDorder3 <- ave(dat$ID, dat$ID, FUN=seq) #4 (Gabor Grothendieck) Assuming the ID's are contiguous dat <- transform(dat, IDorder3 = seq(ID) - match(ID, ID) + 1) dat #5th (Milton Cezar Ribeiro) ID.freq<-table(dat$ID) ID.freq ID.seq<-NULL for (i in names(ID.freq)) { ID.seq<-c(ID.seq,seq(from=1, to=ID.freq[i], by=1)) } dat$ID.seq<-ID.seq dat # END [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
