Hi R users, I am trying to assign ages to age classes for a large data set (123,000 records), and using a for-loop was too slow, so I wrote a function and used apply. However, the function does not properly assign the first two classes (the rest are fine). It appears that when age is one digit, it does not get assigned properly. I tried to provide a small-scale work-up (at the end of the email) but it does not reproduce the problem; the best I can do is to provide my code and the output below. As you can see, I've confirmed that age is numeric, that all values are integers, and that pieces of the code work independently. Any thoughts would be appreciated. To add to the mystery, depending which rows of my data set I select, I get different problems. mds[1:100,] gives the problem above, as do mds[100:200,] , mds[150:250,] and mds[10000:10100,]. However, with mds[200:300,], mds[250:350,] and mds[1000:1100,], only ages with 3 digits are correctly assigned - all ages <100 are returned as NA. I'm using R v 2.8.1 on Windows XP.

Hi Alan, You can avoid the if() else() you're using in your function by replacing it with the recode() function in the car package. I'm pretty sure it will speed up your function.

The cut() function will do what you want in a vectorized fashion. See ? cut However, that being said, I would strongly advise that you read Frank's page on the categorizing of continuous variables: http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/twiki/bin/view/Main/CatContinuous before you proceed.

Hello,
?
The "apply" function seems to behave oddly with?my code below
?
NB : H1 is a data frame. (data in the attached file.)
# the first lines are:
1 02/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
2 03/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
3 04/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
4 07/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
5 08/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
6 09/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
7 10/01/2008 0.000000? 0? 0 0.000000?? 0
8 11/01/2008 1.010391? 0? 0 1.102169?? 0
...
The aim of the code is to extract those lines for which there is a strictly
positive value in the?second column AND in one of the others:
?
reper=function(x){as.numeric(x[2]>1 & any(x[3:length(x)]>1))}
?
TAB1= H1[which(apply(H1,1,reper)>0),]
?
Strangely, this is OK for all the lines, except for the last one. In fact, in
H1, the last 2 lines are:
258 29/12/2008 1.476535 1.187615? 0 0.000000?? 0
259 30/12/2008 0.000000 1.147888? 0 0.000000?? 0
Obviously, line 258 should be?the last line of TAB1, but it is not the case (it
does not appear at all)?and I really don't understand why. This is all the
more?strange?since applying the function "reper" only to this line 258
gives a "1" as expected...
Can someone help ?
?
Thanks,
?
Henri
