How to write text and output it as a text file using R?
The easiest way to write text and obtain it as an output is done by using writeLines function and cat function, and the output of these functions are connected with the help fileConn and sink.Example> fileConn writeLines(c("TutorialsPoint", "SIMPLY EASY LEARNING"), fileConn) > close(fileConn)We can do the same and view these files in R as follows −> fileConn writeLines(c(paste("TutorialsPoint", "E-learning"), "2006", "Video Courses", "Tutorials", "Books"), fileConn) > close(fileConn) > file.show("example.txt")Using sink function> sink("example3.txt") > cat("TutorialsPoint", "E-learning") > cat("") > cat("2006") > cat("") > cat("Video Courses") > cat("") > cat("Tutorials") > cat("") > cat("Books") > sink()Using only cat function> cat("TutorialsPoint E-learning", ...
Read MoreWhat is the use of tilde operator (~) in R?
Tilde operator is used to define the relationship between dependent variable and independent variables in a statistical model formula. The variable on the left-hand side of tilde operator is the dependent variable and the variable(s) on the right-hand side of tilde operator is/are called the independent variable(s). So, tilde operator helps to define that dependent variable depends on the independent variable(s) that are on the right-hand side of tilde operator.Example> Regression_Model Regression_Data Regression_Model_New < - lm(y~ . , data = Regression_Data)This will have the same output as the previous model, but we cannot use tilde with dot if ...
Read MoreHow to simulate discrete uniform random variable in R?
There is no function in base R to simulate discrete uniform random variable like we have for other random variables such as Normal, Poisson, Exponential etc. but we can simulate it using rdunif function of purrr package.The rdunif function has the following syntax −> rdunif(n, b , a)Here, n = Number of random values to returnb = Maximum value of the distribution, it needs to be an integer because the distribution is discretea = Minimum value of the distribution, it needs to be an integer because the distribution is discreteExampleLet’s say you want to simulate 10 ages between 21 to ...
Read MoreWhich function should be used to load a package in R, require or library?
The main difference between require and library is that require was designed to use inside functions and library is used to load packages. If a package is not available then library throws an error on the other hand require gives a warning message.Using library> library(xyz) Error in library(xyz) : there is no package called ‘xyz’Using requirerequire(xyz) Loading required package: xyz Warning message: In library(package, lib.loc = lib.loc, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, : there is no package called ‘xyz’Here we can see that the library shows an error and require gives a warning message, since warnings are mostly avoided ...
Read MoreHow to deal with “could not find function” error in R?
The error “could not find function” occurs due to the following reasons −Function name is incorrect. Always remember that function names are case sensitive in R.The package that contains the function was not installed. We have to install packages in R once before using any function contained by them. It can be done as install.packages("package_name")The package was not loaded before using the function. To use the function that is contained in a package we need to load the package and it can be done as library("package_name").Version of R is older where the function you are using does not exist.If you ...
Read MoreHow to do an inner join and outer join of two data frames in R?
An inner join return only the rows in which the left table have matching keys in the right table and an outer join returns all rows from both tables, join records from the left which have matching keys in the right table. This can be done by using merge function.ExampleInner Join> df1 = data.frame(CustomerId = c(1:5), Product = c(rep("Biscuit", 3), rep("Cream", 2))) > df1 CustomerId Product 1 1 Biscuit 2 2 Biscuit 3 3 Biscuit 4 4 Cream 5 5 Cream > df2 = data.frame(CustomerId = c(2, 5, 6), City = c(rep("Chicago", 2), rep("NewYorkCity", 1))) > df2 CustomerId City ...

The easiest way to do it is by using select_if function of dplyr package but we can also do it through lapply.Using dplyr> df df X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 1 1 11 21 a k 2 2 12 22 b l 3 3 13 23 c m 4 4 14 24 d n 5 5 15 25 e o 6 6 16 26 f p 7 7 17 27 g q 8 8 18 28 h r 9 9 19 29 i s 10 10 20 30 j t >library("dplyr") > select_if(df, is.numeric) X1 X2 X3 1 1 11 21 2 2 12 22 3 3 13 23 4 4 14 24 5 5 15 25 6 6 16 26 7 7 17 27 8 8 18 28 9 9 19 29 10 10 20 30Using lapply> numeric_only df[ , numeric_only] X1 X2 X3 1 1 11 21 2 2 12 22 3 3 13 23 4 4 14 24 5 5 15 25 6 6 16 26 7 7 17 27 8 8 18 28 9 9 19 29 10 10 20 30
