Finally, if you want to delete a column by index, with dplyr and select, you change the name (e.g. 2) but to remove a column by name in R, you can also use dplyr, and you’d just type: select (YourDataframe, -X). # See help("Deprecated") and help("plyr-deprecated"). Note, in that example, you removed multiple columns (i.e. Mtcars %>% rename( list( mpg = "miles_per_gallon")) %>% extract( 1: 2) %>% head # Warning: 'rename' is deprecated. # See help("Deprecated") and help("plyr-deprecated"). However, have a look at the following R code: dplyr ::rename( data, x1new x1) Apply rename function x1new x2 x3 1 1 A 5 2 2 B 5 3 3 C 5. Mtcars %>% count( "gear") # Warning: 'count' is deprecated. Several R packages contain a rename function and with dplyr:: we tell R to use the rename function of the dplyr package. Mtcars %>% plyr:: arrange(-wt) %>% head mpg Mtcars %>% ddply( "cyl", plyr::summarise, mean_mpg = mean(mpg)) cyl Mtcars %>% ddply( "cyl", summarize, mean_mpg = mean(mpg)) cyl The original plyr implementations can be accessed via shortcuts (prefix p).Ī few usage examples: mtcars %>% mutate( lphkm = 100 * 3.785411784 / 1.609344 / mpg) %>% head # Warning in mutate(., lphkm = 100 * 3.785411784/1.609344/mpg): Row names Tests in the pdlyr package will assure that this package can be safely loaded with nflicts = FALSE. # The following objects are masked from package:plyr: This document explores alternative solutions.įor practical use, a thin compatibility layer seems to work reasonably well for a project that was created using plyr and is now transitioning towards dplyr: attach(pdlyr::dplyr_compat) # The following objects are masked from package:dplyr:
Looks like it gets fixed by using tidyselect::varsrename() in rename() rather than renamevars(). Just tell people to be consistent in their use of dev / CRAN versions of dplyr & rlang.
#Dplyr rename code
rename: rename variables in a data frame. filter: extract a subset of rows from a data frame based on logical conditions. select: return a subset of the columns of a data frame, using a flexible notation. Load dplyr after plyr, modify usage of conflicting symbols in the code Some of the key verbs provided by the dplyr package are.Requires extensive code rewriting for existing projects.Don’t load, always access via explicit qualification.Load only one of both packages, access functionality from the other package via explicit qualification (e.g., dplyr::summarise).There are workarounds, but all of them seem to have specific disadvantages:
This means that existing projects that use plyr cannot simply load dplyr using library(dplyr) without potentially breaking existing code. (both_exports <- intersect(plyr_exports, dplyr_exports)) # "arrange" "count" "desc" "failwith" "id" "mutate" github_issues %>% select( -starts_with("user."), -starts_with("milestone.When loading both plyr and dplyr, the last package loaded overwrites symbols exported by the package loaded first: library(plyr)Ĭurrently, the following symbols are affected: plyr_exports <- ls( "package:plyr") So I can use ‘starts_with()’ function inside ‘select()’ function to get the matching columns and then use ‘-’ (minus) to drop them all together like below. One of the convenient functions dplyr provides is called ‘starts_with()’, which would find the columns whose names start with given characters and return those columns. With dplyr I can do such operation very quickly and easily. Since I don’t need these information for my immediate analysis I want to remove all these columns. While dplyr actually includes several dozen functions that enable various forms of data manipulation, the package features five primary verbs. And the same way for ‘milestone.’ and ‘pull_request.’ these all have the detail information about them. The column names that start with ‘user.’ hold all the information about the person who entered the issues. When you look closer there are bunch of column names that start with the same text like ‘user.xxx’, ‘assignee.xxx’, etc. As you see there are 86 columns, and there is no way I need all those columns for my analysis this time.
