我的聚合需求因列/ data.frames而异。我想动态地将“list”参数传递给data.table。
作为一个最小的例子:
require(data.table)
type <- c(rep("hello", 3), rep("bye", 3), rep("ok",3))
a <- (rep(1:3, 3))
b <- runif(9)
c <- runif(9)
df <- data.frame(cbind(type, a, b, c), stringsAsFactors=F)
DT <-data.table(df)
这个电话:
DT[, list(suma = sum(as.numeric(a)), meanb = mean(as.numeric(b)), minc = min(as.numeric(c))), by= type]
会有类似的结果:
type suma meanb minc
1: hello 6 0.1332210 0.4265579
2: bye 6 0.5680839 0.2993667
3: ok 6 0.5694532 0.2069026
未来的data.frames会有更多的列,我想要用不同的方式进行总结。但是为了使用这个小例子:有没有办法以编程方式传递列表?
我天真地尝试过:
# create a different list
mylist <- "list(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)), maxb = max(as.numeric(b)), meanc = mean(as.numeric(c)))"
# new call
DT[, mylist, by=type]
出现以下错误:
1: hello
2: bye
3: ok
mylist
1: list(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)), maxb = max(as.numeric(b)), meanc = mean(as.numeric(c)))
2: list(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)), maxb = max(as.numeric(b)), meanc = mean(as.numeric(c)))
3: list(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)), maxb = max(as.numeric(b)), meanc = mean(as.numeric(c)))
任何提示都表示赞赏!最好的问候!
PS抱歉这些as.numeric()
,我无法弄清楚原因,但我需要它们才能运行示例。
次要编辑在初始句子中的data.frame之前插入列/以阐明我的需求。

解释FAQ 1.6您要查找的内容为quote
和eval
类似
mycall <- quote(list(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)), maxb = max(as.numeric(b)), meanc = mean(as.numeric(c))))
DT[, eval(mycall)]
经过一番头脑冲击,这是一种使用.()
构建ddply调用的非常丑陋的方法
myplyrcall <- .(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)), maxb = max(as.numeric(b)), meanc = mean(as.numeric(c)))
do.call(ddply,c(.data = quote(DF), .variables = 'type',.fun = quote(summarise),myplyrcall))
您也可以使用as.quoted
方法as.quoted.character
来构建paste0
myplc <-as.quoted(c("lengtha" = "length(as.numeric(a))", "maxb" = "max(as.numeric(b))", "meanc" = "mean(as.numeric(c))"))
这也可以与data.table一起使用!
dtcall <- as.quoted(mylist)[[1]]
DT[,eval(dtcall), by = type]
data.table
一路。

另一种方法(支持使用paste
或paste0
来构建表达式):
expr <- parse(text=mylist)
DT[, eval( expr ), by=type]
#-------
type lengtha maxb meanc
1: hello 3 0.8265407 0.5244094
2: bye 3 0.4955301 0.6289475
3: ok 3 0.9527455 0.5600915
答案 2 :(得分:7)
另一种方法是使用.SDcols
对要为其执行相同操作的列进行分组。假设您需要a,d,e
对type
列求和,其中b,g
应该mean
,c,f
中位数,然后,
# constructing an example data.table:
set.seed(45)
dt <- data.table(type=rep(c("hello","bye","ok"), each=3), a=sample(9),
b = rnorm(9), c=runif(9), d=sample(9), e=sample(9),
f = runif(9), g=rnorm(9))
# type a b c d e f g

# 1) set key
setkey(dt, "type")
# 2) group col-ids by similar operations
id1 <- which(names(dt) %in% c("a", "d", "e"))
id2 <- which(names(dt) %in% c("b","g"))
id3 <- which(names(dt) %in% c("c","f"))
# 3) now use these ids in with .SDcols parameter
dt1 <- dt[, lapply(.SD, sum), by="type", .SDcols=id1]
dt2 <- dt[, lapply(.SD, mean), by="type", .SDcols=id2]
dt3 <- dt[, lapply(.SD, median), by="type", .SDcols=id3]
# 4) merge them.
dt1[dt2[dt3]]

如果/当你有很多列时,列出一个你可能很麻烦的列表。
答案 3 :(得分:5)
我觉得很明显eval
显然是答案的一部分。从你的问题来看,我不清楚你是否真的想要做你想要的事情。因此,我在此证明您也可以使用函数:
fun <- function(a,b,c) {
list(lengtha = length(as.numeric(a)),
maxb = max(as.numeric(b)),
meanc = mean(as.numeric(c)))
}
DT[, fun(a,b,c), by=type]
type lengtha maxb meanc
