similar to: sort data frame columns according to a list

Hi, R-listers, Failed, when I tried to merge df1 and df2 by "codetot" in df1 and "codetoto" in df2. I want to know the reason and how to merge them together. Data frames and codes I have used were listed as followed. Thanks a lot in advance. df1: popcode codetot p3need BCPy01-01 BCPy01-01-1 100.0000 BCPy01-01 BCPy01-01-2 100.0000 BCPy01-01 BCPy01-01-3 100.0000 BCPy01-02

Hi everybody. I'll first explain my problem and what I'm trying to do. Admit this example: I'm working on 5 different weather stations. I have first in one file 3 of these 5 weather stations, containing their data. Here's an example of this file: DF1 <- data.frame(station=c("ST001","ST004","ST005"),data=c(5,2,8)) And my two other stations in

I have a dataframe where I would like to order first by variable, year, and then within that variable by month. So far the only way that I have seen to do this is to order by year and then subset year and sort by month and then do an rbind to get things back together. Is this the right approach? Example: us.state <-rep("California", 23)

Hi- I have two data frames for which I wish to conditionally subtract the values of one dataframe from the other. I want to subtract df1$x from df2$x when their id is equal and the absolute value of difference between the dates is 12 hours or less. If there is no match of equal id's and dates less than 12 hours apart I want it to return "NA". Note that df1 has missing values in x

PREFERED WAY OF DOING IT I have a data set of observations every second for a month long period, I want to extract the observations according to the date & time of another data frame ( the other data frame is in the same format). I want to do this to match these observations to my test observations (in the other data frame) which are done every 6 minutes. So basically im shrinking the

Dear community, I'm working with the data.frame attached ( http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4122926/df1.xls df1.xls ), let's call it df1. I typed: df1<- read.xls("C:/... dir .../df1.xls",colNames= TRUE, rowNames= TRUE) Then I splited randomly df1 using splitdf function (http://gettinggeneticsdone.blogspot.com/2011/03/splitting- dataset-revisited-keeping.html)

Hi everyone, I have large data frame, say df1, with 165K columns, and all but the first four columns of df1 are numeric. I transformed the numeric data and obtained a matrix, call it data.m, with 165K - 4 columns, and then tried to create a second data frame by replacing the numeric columns of df1 by data.m. I did this in two ways, and both ways instantly used up all the available memory, so

I have the following data: prefix <- c("cheap", "budget") roots <- c("car insurance", "auto insurance") suffix <- c("quote", "quotes") prefix2 <- c("cheap", "budget") roots2 <- c("car insurance", "auto insurance") roots3 <- c("car insurance", "auto

Hello I have 2 data frames DF1 and DF2 where DF2 is a subset of DF1: DF1= data.frame(V1=1:6, V2= letters[1:6]) DF2= data.frame(V1=1:3, V2= letters[1:3]) How do I create a new data frame of the difference between DF1 and DF2 newDF=data.frame(V1=4:6, V2= letters[4:6]) In my real data, the rows are not in order as in the example I provided. Thanks much Joseph [[alternative HTML version

#I want to "merge" or "join" 2 dataframes (df1 & df2) into a 3rd (mydf). I want the 3rd dataframe to contain 1 row for each row in df1 & df2, and all the columns in both df1 & df2. The solution should "work" even if the 2 dataframes are identical, and even if the 2 dataframes do not have the same column names. The rbind.fill function seems to work. For

Dear expeRts, What is the best approach to create a third data frame from two given ones, when the new/third data frame has last column computed from the last columns of the two given data frames? ## Okay, sounds complicated, so here is an example. Assume we have the two data frames: df1 <- data.frame(Year=rep(2001:2010, each=2), Group=c("Group 1","Group 2"), Value=1:20)

Hi, I have two dataframes: The first, df1, contains some missing data: cola colb colc cold cole 1 NA 5 9 NA 17 2 NA 6 NA 14 NA 3 3 NA 11 15 19 4 4 8 12 NA 20 The second, df2, contains the following: cola colb colc cold cole 1 1.4 0.8 0.02 1.6 0.6 I'm wanting all missing data in df1$cola to be replaced by the value of df2$cola.

The rbind on empty and nonempty data frames behaves inconsistently. I am not sure if by design. In the first example, first row is deleted, which may or may not be on purpose: df1 <- data.frame() df2 <- data.frame(foo=c(1, 2), bar=c("a", "b")) rbind(df1, df2) foo bar 2 2 b Now if we continue: df1 <- data.frame(matrix(0, 0, 2)) names(df1) <- names(df2)

Hi there, I have a list of dataframes (generated by reading multiple files) and all dataframes are comparable in dimension and column names. They also have a common column, which, I'd like to use for merging. To give a simple example of what I have: df1 <- data.frame(c(LETTERS[1:5]), c(2,6,3,1,9)) names(df1) <- c("pos", "data") df3 <- df2 <- df1 df2$data

Hello I have 2 data frames df1 and df2. I would like to create a new data frame new_df which will contain only the common rows based on the first 2 columns (chrN and start). The column score in the new data frame should be replaced with a column containing the average score (average_score) from df1 and df2. df1= data.frame(chrN= c(“chr1”, “chr1”, “chr1”, “chr1”, “chr2”, “chr2”, “chr2”),

Hi, I am using colsplit (package = reshape) to split all strings in a column according to the same patterns. Here an example: library(reshape2) df1 <- data.frame(x=c("str1_name2", "str3_name5")) df2 <- data.frame(df1, colsplit(df1$x, pattern = "_", names=c("str","name"))) This is nearly what I want but I want to remove the words

Hello, I have two dataframes DF1 and DF2 that should be identical but are not (DF1 has some rows that aren't in DF2, and vice versa). I would like to produce a new dataframe DF3 containing rows in DF1 that aren't in DF2 (and similarly DF4 would contain rows in DF2 that aren't in DF1). I have a solution for this problem (see self contained example below) but it's awkward and

Hello all, I have a quandry I have been scratching my head about for a while. I've searched the manual and the web and have not been able to find an acceptable result, so I am hoping for some help. I have two data frames and I want to index into the first using the second, and replace the specific values I have indexed with more values from the second data.frame. I can do this

Dear list, Let's say we have a data frame as follows, >expand.grid(a=1:5,b=c(1,5,10,20),DV=c(0.1,0.2,0.3))->df1 >df1$DV<-rgamma(60,shape=10) columns a and b are two levels. DV is the column with values we are interested in. Then another data frame df2 with values as follows data.frame(a=c(2,2,3,4,5),b=c(5,10,1,5,20))->df2 Now I want to a subset of df1 that match df2 at the

Hi all, I have a dataframe (df1) that I am trying to select values from to a second dataframe that at the current time is only for the selected items from df1 (df2). The values that I am trying to save from df1 are factors with alphanumeric names df1 looks like this: 'data.frame': 3014 obs. of 13 variables: $ Num : int 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 ... $ Tag_Num : int 1195
