对数据帧属性的逻辑测试如何导致NA行

我有一个格式的数据框:

>df
stationid    station      gear sample     lat    lon       date depth
1     25679          CORBOX150    UE4 53.9015 7.8617 15.07.1987    19
2     25681 UE9 Kern CORCRB050    UE9 54.0167 7.3982 15.07.1987    33
3        NA                           54.0167 7.3982 15.07.1987    33

stationid的逻辑测试让我在正确的第一行旁边找到一条充满NAs的烦人行:

> df[df$stationid=="25679",]
stationid station      gear sample     lat    lon       date depth
1      25679         CORBOX150    UE4 53.9015 7.8617 15.07.1987    19
NA        NA    <NA>      <NA>   <NA>      NA     NA       <NA>    NA

为什么?

df的第3行的某处,我猜想事情会搞砸。

见下数据:

df<-structure(list(stationid = c(25679L, 25681L, NA), station = structure(c(2L, 
3L, 1L), .Label = c("", " ", "UE9 Kern"), class = "factor"), 
gear = structure(c(2L, 3L, 1L), .Label = c("", "CORBOX150", 
"CORCRB050"), class = "factor"), sample = structure(c(2L, 
3L, 1L), .Label = c("", "UE4", "UE9"), class = "factor"), 
lat = c(53.9015, 54.0167, 54.0167), lon = c(7.8617, 7.3982, 
7.3982), date = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L), .Label = "15.07.1987", class = "factor"), 
depth = c(19L, 33L, 33L)), .Names = c("stationid", "station", 
"gear", "sample", "lat", "lon", "date", "depth"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, 
-3L))

2 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:2)

NA的任何比较都会产生NA的结果(请参阅http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-intro.html#Missing-values)...您可以使用

df[df$stationid==25679 & !is.na(df$stationid),]

或(如上面的评论所示)

df[which(df$stationid==25679),] 

subset(df,stationid==25679)

subset有时会产生丢失NA值的不良副作用,但在这种情况下,它正是你想要的那样)

答案 1 :(得分:1)

另一个解决方案是df[df$stationid==25679 & !is.na(df$stationid),]。更长但更明确。
