Hi all, Again I have searched the net and so on, without finding an answer to this surely simple problem. A short bit of code would be appreciated. I have a object named `data' with the following column headings. Date, maxitemp, minitemp, admissions, d.o.w. Where d.o.w. is day of the week, written "Sun" "Mon" etc. I just need to scale the Monday admissions by 0.91, the Saturday admissions by 1.21 and the Sunday admissions by 1.22. So basically what I want is: If d.o.w. == "Sat" Multiply Sat admissions by 1.21. (Now do I need an else statement here, or can I just do another) If d.o.w. == "Sun" Multiply "Sun" admissions by 1.22 (and finally) If d.o.w. == "Mon" Multiply Monday admissions by 0.91. Else do nothing. I assume in my code I need to specify that I am using the data.frame `data', so do I need to write things like If(data[d.o.w.]=="Mon") I would then like to round the new admissions to integers (I assume I just use round(data$admissions)), and output the new data to another csv file. I could of course do this in excel but I will need to extend this type of idea in the future so I would like to master it in R. Many thanks for any help/code. Robin Williams.

You would have something that looks like this: if (data$d.o.w == "Sat") data$admission <- round(data$admission * 1.21) if (data$d.o.w == "Sun") .......

My fingers slipped on the keyboard. Here what they intended to write. This sets up a list of the data and the matches on a subset for processing days <- list(list("Sat", 1.21), list("Sun", 1.22), list("Mon", 0.91)) for (i in days){ .subset <- data$d.o.w == i[[1]] # subset of data that matches data$d.o.w[.subset] <- round(data$d.o.w[.subset] * i[[2]]) } write.csv(data, file='xyz') On Wed, Jul 23, 2008 at 11:44 AM, Robin Williams <robster3 at hotmail.com> wrote:> Hi all, > > Again I have searched the net and so on, without finding an answer to this > surely simple problem.

One more try and I quit: This is what happens if someone does not sent a sample of data you have to create things on the fly without testing. days <- list(list("Sat", 1.21), list("Sun", 1.22), list("Mon", 0.91)) for (i in days){ .subset <- data$d.o.w == i[[1]] # subset of data that matches data$admission[.subset] <- round(data$admission[.subset] * i[[2]]) } write.csv(data, file='xyz') On Wed, Jul 23, 2008 at 11:44 AM, Robin Williams <robster3 at hotmail.com> wrote:> Hi all, > > Again I have searched the net and so on, without finding an answer to this > surely simple problem.

Hi Rob Williams I think it is one way of you do the job.

Hi Robin: I think you can avoid the loops doing this: my.df<-data.frame(d.o.w=sample(c("mon","sat","sun"), 20, replace=T), admissions=rnorm(20)) weight <- c(1,1,1,1,1,1.21,1.22) names(weight) <- c("mon","tue","wed","thu","fri","sat","sun") my.df$NewAdm <- my.df$admissions * weight[as.character(my.df$d.o.w)] my.df Gabriela ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robin Williams" <robster3 at hotmail.com> To: <r-help at r-project.org> Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2008 12:44 PM Subject: [R] Using if, else statements> Hi all, > > Again I have searched the net and so on, without finding an answer to this > surely simple problem.
