我的数据框看起来大致如下(这意味着它是为了说明而做出的近似值,而不是您可以通过以下链接下载的数据帧的精确副本,或者来自我粘贴在下面的dput()) :

March_created_at    March_email March_type  April_created_at April_email    April_type
3/11/12 7:28    jeremy@asynk.ch PushEvent   4/1/12 4:03                     PushEvent
3/11/12 7:28    jeremy@asynk.ch PushEvent   4/1/12 4:03                     PushEvent
3/11/12 7:28    jeremy@asynk.ch PushEvent   4/1/12 4:03                     PushEvent
3/11/12 7:28    jeremy@asynk.ch PushEvent   4/1/12 7:03     high            IssuesEvent
3/11/12 11:06   medium          PushEvent   4/1/12 13:57    medium          PushEvent
3/11/12 11:06   medium          PushEvent   4/1/12 13:57    medium          PushEvent
3/11/12 11:06   medium          PushEvent   4/1/12 13:57    medium          PushEvent
3/11/12 12:46                   PushEvent   
3/11/12 12:46                   PushEvent   
3/11/12 12:46                   PushEvent   

可以将完整数据集here作为CSV文件

找到

我正在寻找一个能够接受以下输入的函数:

  1. 数据框
  2. 该数据框的某些列
  3. 字符串列表(例如一组电子邮件地址)
  4. 替换字符串(例如“低”)
  5. 现在,我希望函数只遍历该数据帧的指定列,并替换匹配点中指定的字符串列表的所有字符串(以及空单元格)上面的图3中的替换字符串在第4点中。但是,只有在满足以下条件时才应该这样做:

    正在考虑的小组需要在同一个月有一个时间戳。

    例如,假设我们要替换“March_email”列中第8行的空单元格。我可以看到在“March_created_at”列中的第8行有一个时间戳,所以我可以继续用指定的字符串替换这个空单元格(例如“低”)。但是,请查看“April_email”列中的第8行。此单元格也是空的,“April_created_at”列中第8行的单元格也是空的。在这种情况下,不应该做任何事情(即没有插入字符串)。

    我想这样做的原因是某些单元格只是空的,因为没有数据,所以不应插入任何内容。其他单元格为空,因为数据丢失,所以我需要根据上面指定的函数来计算数据。

    我如何在R?

    中完成此任务

这样的事情怎么样:

myfun <- function(month, DF, matches, replacement) {
  email.col <- paste0(month, '_actor_attributes_email')
  date.col  <- paste0(month, '_created_at')


  DF[[email.col]] <- ifelse(DF[[date.col]] != '' & !DF[[email.col]] %in% matches,
                            DF[[email.col]],
                            replacement)

  return (DF[, c(date.col, email.col)])
}

myfun(dat, 'April', 'high', 'foo')

#          April_created_at April_actor_attributes_email
# 1 2012-04-01     04:03:13                          foo   
# 2     2012-04-01 04:03:13                          foo   
# 3     2012-04-01 04:03:13                          foo   
# 4     2012-04-01 07:03:11                          high
# 5     2012-04-01 07:03:11                          high
# 6     2012-04-01 07:03:11                          high

然后,你可以喂它几个月......

out <- lapply(list('March', 'April', 'May'), 
              myfun, DF=dat, matches='', replacement='foo')

你可以快速将其恢复到data.frame中。与plyr

as.data.frame(unlist(out, recursive=FALSE))

还有很多其他方法和选择,但这应该会给你一个很大的开始。
