我正在处理一个包含300万行和10列的数据框,我正在做一些子集。我下面有一些玩具代码。我的子集需要很长时间。如果我在data.table上使用data.table和subset会更快吗?这是一些玩具代码:
s<-c(100,100,100,800,800,6662,33565,265653262,266532)
p<-c(5,5,5,10,10,10,8,9,10)
name<-c("bob","bob","bob","ed","ed","ed","joe","frank","ted")
time<- as.POSIXct(as.character(c("2014-10-27 18:11:36 PDT","2014-10-27 18:11:37 PDT","2014-10-27 18:11:38 PDT","2014-10-27 18:11:39 PDT","2014-10-27 18:11:40 PDT","2014-10-27 18:11:41 PDT","2014-10-27 19:11:36 PDT","2014-10-27 20:11:36 PDT","2014-10-27 21:11:36 PDT")))
dat<- data.frame(s,p,name,time)
dat
这是数据框:
s p name time
1 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:36
2 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:37
3 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:38
4 800 10 ed 2014-10-27 18:11:39
5 800 10 ed 2014-10-27 18:11:40
6 6662 10 ed 2014-10-27 18:11:41
7 33565 8 joe 2014-10-27 19:11:36
8 265653262 9 frank 2014-10-27 20:11:36
9 266532 10 ted 2014-10-27 21:11:36
现在我在数据帧上进行了子集:
result <- subset(dat, as.numeric(s) == 100
& p == 5
& name == "bob"
& time >= "2014-10-27 18:11:36 PDT"
& time <= "2014-10-27 18:12:00 PDT"
)
result
s p name time
1 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:36
2 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:37
3 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:38
如何使用data.table执行类似的操作?
谢谢。

好吧,由于“时间”选择器,您的示例代码实际上会破坏数据帧 - 您尝试将POSIXlt日期(在数据框中)与字符串(在选择器中)匹配。我想你想要:
result <- subset(dat, as.numeric(s) == 100
& p == 5
& name == "bob"
& time >= as.POSIXlt("2014-10-27 18:11:36 PDT")
& time <= as.POSIXlt("2014-10-27 18:12:00 PDT")
)
result
s p name time
1 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:36
2 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:37
3 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:38
这种语法非常适用于data.tables:
dat <- as.data.table(dat)
result <- subset(dat,
as.numeric(s) == 100
& p == 5
& name == "bob"
& time >= as.POSIXlt("2014-10-27 18:11:36 PDT")
& time <= as.POSIXlt("2014-10-27 18:12:00 PDT")
)
result
s p name time
1: 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:36
2: 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:37
3: 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:38
如果你想要更多像data.table一样的东西,你可以完全避免“子集”,而只是直接对data.table进行操作:
dat <- as.data.table(dat)
result <- dat[as.numeric(s) == 100
& p == 5
& name == "bob"
& time >= as.POSIXlt("2014-10-27 18:11:36 PDT")
& time <= as.POSIXlt("2014-10-27 18:12:00 PDT"),]
result
s p name time
1: 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:36
2: 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:37
3: 100 5 bob 2014-10-27 18:11:38
