To find the day of the year from dates, we can use yday function of lubridate package. For example, if we have a date or a date of vectors then we simply need to pass that date or the vector inside yday function by using the below syntax −yday(“date”)oryday(“vector_of_date”)Loading lubridate package −library(lubridate)Examplesdate1

One of the most important aspects of a boxplot is Y-axis labels because these labels help us to understand the limit of the variable. Since R generate these labels automatically in a good way, we stick with that but we can change that using coord_cartesian function with ylim as shown in the below example.Example Live DemoConsider the below data frame −set.seed(1212) x

To replace missing values with median, we can use the same trick that is used to replace missing values with mean. For example, if we have a data frame df that contain columns x and y where both of the columns contains some missing values then the missing values can be replaced with median as df$x[is.na(df$x)]

If we have two lists of same size then we can create a data frame using those lists and this can be easily done with the help of expand.grid function. The expand.grid function create a data frame from all combinations of the provided lists or vectors or factors. For example, if we have two lists defined as List1 and List2 then we can create a data frame using the code expand.grid(List1,List2).Example Live DemoConsider the below lists −List1

In mathematics, when two vectors are multiplied the output is a scalar quantity which is the sum of the product of the values. For example, if we have two vectors x and y each containing 1 and 2 then the multiplication of the two vectors will be 5. In R, we can do it by using t(x)%*%y.Example1 Live Demox1

Filling of blanks is not an easy task in data analysis, especially if the vector contains numerical or integer values. Suppose we have a vector x that contains 1, , 2, 3, 4, 5 and we want to put 1 in place of blank after first value then cummax function along with seq_along function can be used as x[cummax(seq_along(x)*(x!=""))].Example1 Live Demox1

If we want to remove rows containing missing values based on a particular column then we should select that column by ignoring the missing values. This can be done by using is.na function. For example, if we have a data frame df that contains column x, y, z and each of the columns have some missing values then rows of x without missing values can be selected as df[!is.na(df$x),].ExampleConsider the below data frame − Live Demox1

The concatenation of vectors can be done by using combination function c. For example, if we have three vectors x, y, z then the concatenation of these vectors can be done as c(x,y,z). Also, we can concatenate different types of vectors at the same time using the same same function.Example1 Live Demoset.seed(999) x1

The calculation of total for integer column based on two different character columns simply means that we need to create a contingency table for the available data. For this purpose, we can use with and tapply function. For example, if we have a data frame df that contains two categorical columns defined as gender and ethnicity and an integer column defined as Package then the contingency table can be created as:with(df,tapply(Package,list(gender,ethnicity),sum))ExampleConsider the below data frame − Live Demoset.seed(777) Class

A list can contain multiple lists of different type as well as similar type elements such as data frames, vectors, matrices etcetera but accessing those elements become a little difficult task. Therefore, it is better to convert a list that contain multiple lists into a single list and it can be done using unlist function.ExampleConsider the below vectors −set.seed(871) x1
