R语言包_dplyr_1

有5个基础的函数: 
- filter 
- select 
- arrange 
- mutate 
- summarise 
- group_by (plus)

可以和databases以及data tables中的数据打交道。

plyr包的特点

其基础函数有以下特点:

  1. 第一个参数df
  2. 返回df
  3. 没有数据更改in place

正是因为有这些特点,才可以使用%>%操作符,方便逻辑式编程。

载入数据

library(plyr)
library(dplyr) # load packages
suppressMessages(library(dplyr))
install.packages("hflights")
library(hflights)
# explore data
data(hflights)
head(hflights)
# convert to local data frame
flights <- tbl_df(hflights)
# printing only shows 10 rows and as many columns as can fit on your screen
flights
# you can specify that you want to see more rows
print(flights, n=20)
# convert to a normal data frame to see all of the columns
data.frame(head(flights))

filter

keep rows matching criteria

# base R approach to view all flights on January 1
flights[flights$Month==1 & flights$DayofMonth==1, ]
# dplyr approach
# note: you can use comma or ampersand to represent AND condition
filter(flights, Month==1, DayofMonth==1)
# use pipe for OR condition
filter(flights, UniqueCarrier=="AA" | UniqueCarrier=="UA")
# you can also use %in% operator
filter(flights, UniqueCarrier %in% c("AA", "UA"))

select

pick columns by name

# base R approach to select DepTime, ArrTime, and FlightNum columns
flights[, c("DepTime", "ArrTime", "FlightNum")]
# dplyr approach
select(flights, DepTime, ArrTime, FlightNum)
# use colon to select multiple contiguous columns, and use `contains` to match columns by name
# note: `starts_with`, `ends_with`, and `matches` (for regular expressions) can also be used to match columns by name
select(flights, Year:DayofMonth, contains("Taxi"), contains("Delay"))

“chaining” or “pipelining”

# nesting method to select UniqueCarrier and DepDelay columns and filter for delays over 60 minutes
filter(select(flights, UniqueCarrier, DepDelay), DepDelay > 60)
# chaining method
flights %>%
select(UniqueCarrier, DepDelay) %>%
filter(DepDelay > 60) # create two vectors and calculate Euclidian distance between them
x1 <- 1:5; x2 <- 2:6
sqrt(sum((x1-x2)^2))
# chaining method
(x1-x2)^2 %>% sum() %>% sqrt()

arrange

reorder rows

# base R approach to select UniqueCarrier and DepDelay columns and sort by DepDelay
flights[order(flights$DepDelay), c("UniqueCarrier", "DepDelay")]
# dplyr approach
flights %>%
select(UniqueCarrier, DepDelay) %>%
arrange(DepDelay)
# use `desc` for descending
flights %>%
select(UniqueCarrier, DepDelay) %>%
arrange(desc(DepDelay))

mutate

add new variable 
create new variables that are functions of exciting variables 
which is d 
ifferent form transform

# base R approach to create a new variable Speed (in mph)
flights$Speed <- flights$Distance / flights$AirTime*60
flights[, c("Distance", "AirTime", "Speed")]
# dplyr approach (prints the new variable but does not store it)
flights %>%
select(Distance, AirTime) %>%
mutate(Speed = Distance/AirTime*60)
# store the new variable
flights <- flights %>% mutate(Speed = Distance/AirTime*60)

summarise

reduce variables to values

# base R approaches to calculate the average arrival delay to each destination
head(with(flights, tapply(ArrDelay, Dest, mean, na.rm=TRUE)))
head(aggregate(ArrDelay ~ Dest, flights, mean))
# dplyr approach: create a table grouped by Dest, and then summarise each group by taking the mean of ArrDelay
flights %>%
group_by(Dest) %>%
summarise(avg_delay = mean(ArrDelay, na.rm=TRUE))
#summarise_each allows you to apply the same summary function to multiple columns at once
#Note: mutate_each is also available
# for each carrier, calculate the percentage of flights cancelled or diverted
flights %>%
group_by(UniqueCarrier) %>%
summarise_each(funs(mean), Cancelled, Diverted)
# for each carrier, calculate the minimum and maximum arrival and departure delays
flights %>%
group_by(UniqueCarrier) %>%
summarise_each(funs(min(., na.rm=TRUE), max(., na.rm=TRUE)), matches("Delay"))
#Helper function n() counts the number of rows in a group
#Helper function n_distinct(vector) counts the number of unique items in that vector
# for each day of the year, count the total number of flights and sort in descending order
flights %>%
group_by(Month, DayofMonth) %>%
summarise(flight_count = n()) %>%
arrange(desc(flight_count))
# rewrite more simply with the `tally` function
flights %>%
group_by(Month, DayofMonth) %>%
tally(sort = TRUE)
# for each destination, count the total number of flights and the number of distinct planes that flew there
flights %>%
group_by(Dest) %>%
summarise(flight_count = n(), plane_count = n_distinct(TailNum))
# Grouping can sometimes be useful without summarising
# for each destination, show the number of cancelled and not cancelled flights
flights %>%
group_by(Dest) %>%
select(Cancelled) %>%
table() %>%
head()

Window Functions

  • Aggregation function (like mean) takes n inputs and returns 1 value
  • Window function takes n inputs and returns n values 
    Includes ranking and ordering functions (like min_rank), offset functions (lead and lag), and cumulative aggregates (like cummean).
# for each carrier, calculate which two days of the year they had their longest departure delays
# note: smallest (not largest) value is ranked as 1, so you have to use `desc` to rank by largest value
flights %>%
group_by(UniqueCarrier) %>%
select(Month, DayofMonth, DepDelay) %>%
filter(min_rank(desc(DepDelay)) <= 2) %>%
arrange(UniqueCarrier, desc(DepDelay))
# rewrite more simply with the `top_n` function
flights %>%
group_by(UniqueCarrier) %>%
select(Month, DayofMonth, DepDelay) %>%
top_n(2,DepDelay) %>%
arrange(UniqueCarrier, desc(DepDelay)) # for each month, calculate the number of flights and the change from the previous month
flights %>%
group_by(Month) %>%
summarise(flight_count = n()) %>%
mutate(change = flight_count - lag(flight_count)) # rewrite more simply with the `tally` function
flights %>%
group_by(Month) %>%
tally() %>%
mutate(change = n - lag(n))

Other functions

# randomly sample a fixed number of rows, without replacement
flights %>% sample_n(5) # randomly sample a fraction of rows, with replacement
flights %>% sample_frac(0.25, replace=TRUE) # base R approach to view the structure of an object
str(flights) # dplyr approach: better formatting, and adapts to your screen width
glimpse(flights)

Connecting Databases

  • dplyr can connect to a database as if the data was loaded into a data frame
  • Use the same syntax for local data frames and databases
  • Only generates SELECT statements
  • Currently supports SQLite, PostgreSQL/Redshift, MySQL/MariaDB, BigQuery, MonetDB
  • Example below is based upon an SQLite database containing the hflights data
  • Instructions for creating this database are in the databases vignette
# connect to an SQLite database containing the hflights data
my_db <- src_sqlite("my_db.sqlite3") # connect to the "hflights" table in that database
flights_tbl <- tbl(my_db, "hflights") # example query with our data frame
flights %>%
select(UniqueCarrier, DepDelay) %>%
arrange(desc(DepDelay)) # identical query using the database
flights_tbl %>%
select(UniqueCarrier, DepDelay) %>%
arrange(desc(DepDelay))

You can write the SQL commands yourself 
dplyr can tell you the SQL it plans to run and the query execution plan

# send SQL commands to the database
tbl(my_db, sql("SELECT * FROM hflights LIMIT 100")) # ask dplyr for the SQL commands
flights_tbl %>%
select(UniqueCarrier, DepDelay) %>%
arrange(desc(DepDelay)) %>%
