A boxplot shows the median as a measure of center along with other values but we might want to compare the means as well. Therefore, showing mean with a point is likely to be preferred if we want to compare many boxplots. This can be done by using points(mean(“Vector_name”)), if ... Read More

The calculation of quantiles in R is very simple, we just need to use quantile function and it returns all the quantiles that are 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. If we want to avoid the printing the name of these quantiles then we can use names=FALSE with the quantile ... Read More

Generally, a matrix is created with given values but if we want to create the matrix with random values then we will use the usual method with the matrix function. Random selection in R can be done in many ways depending on our objective, for example, if we want to ... Read More

The matrices that have same number of columns can be combined by rows. For example, if we have five matrices list, each having six columns then those matrices can be converted into a single matric by joining the rows of those matrices. It can be done by using do.call(rbind, ”List_of_matrices_object_name”).ExampleConsider ... Read More

Random sampling helps us to reduce the biasedness in the analysis. If we have data in groups then we might want to find a random sample based on groups. For example, if we have a data frame with a group variable and each group contains ten values then we might ... Read More

We know that a list in R can have multiple elements of different data types but they can be the same as well. Whether we have the same type of elements or different ones, we might want to subset the list with unique values, especially in situations where we believe ... Read More

To apply shapiro wilk test for normality on vectors, we just simply name the vector inside shapiro.test function but if we want to do the same for an R data frame column then the column will have to specify the column in a proper way. For example, if the data ... Read More

The power of a matrix in R cannot be found directly because there is not function in base R for that. Therefore, for this purpose we can use %^% of expm package. Firstly, we will install the expm package then load it and use %^%. For example, suppose we have ... Read More

When we draw a scatterplot using ggplot2 with points based on a sequence of values then the size of the points might be very small for the small values. As a result, it becomes a little difficult to view the points. Therefore, we might want to increase the size of ... Read More

A list sometimes contains NULL elements along with other elements. Therefore, we might want to get rid of that NULL element so that we can use our list without any hustle. To do this, we can use lapply function with the following syntax −Syntax“List_name”[!unlist(lapply(“List_name”, is.null))]ExampleConsider the below list − Live Demox1Read More
