我有一个数据框x

dput(x)
structure(list(District = structure(c(6L, 6L, 6L, 6L, 6L, 6L), .Label = c("District - Central (06)", 
"District - East (04)", "District - New Delhi (05)", "District - North (02)", 
"District - North East (03)", "District - North West (01)", "District - South (09)", 
"District - South West (08)", "District - West (07)"), class = "factor"), 
    Age = structure(c(103L, 1L, 2L, 14L, 25L, 36L), .Label = c("0", 
    "1", "10", "100+", "11", "12", "13", "14", "15", "16", "17", 
    "18", "19", "2", "20", "21", "22", "23", "24", "25", "26", 
    "27", "28", "29", "3", "30", "31", "32", "33", "34", "35", 
    "36", "37", "38", "39", "4", "40", "41", "42", "43", "44", 
    "45", "46", "47", "48", "49", "5", "50", "51", "52", "53", 
    "54", "55", "56", "57", "58", "59", "6", "60", "61", "62", 
    "63", "64", "65", "66", "67", "68", "69", "7", "70", "71", 
    "72", "73", "74", "75", "76", "77", "78", "79", "8", "80", 
    "81", "82", "83", "84", "85", "86", "87", "88", "89", "9", 
    "90", "91", "92", "93", "94", "95", "96", "97", "98", "99", 
    "Age not stated", "All ages"), class = "factor"), Total = c(3656539L, 
    56131L, 58644L, 63835L, 63859L, 64945L), Rural = c(213950L, 
    3589L, 3757L, 4200L, 4102L, 4223L), Urban = c(3442589L, 52542L, 
    54887L, 59635L, 59757L, 60722L)), .Names = c("District", 
"Age", "Total", "Rural", "Urban"), row.names = c(NA, 6L), class = "data.frame")

我想拆分District列,将地区名称提取到新列Name。例如。 "区 - 西北(01)"应分开给西北"。 我试过str_split_fixed并得到了:

x
                    District      Age   Total  Rural   Urban 1    name
1 District - North West (01) All ages 3656539 213950 3442589      North West (01)
2 District - North West (01)        0   56131   3589   52542      North West (01)
3 District - North West (01)        1   58644   3757   54887      North West (01)
4 District - North West (01)        2   63835   4200   59635      North West (01)
5 District - North West (01)        3   63859   4102   59757      North West (01)
6 District - North West (01)        4   64945   4223   60722      North West (01)

我再次尝试使用相同的功能拆分name列以将区域名称与代码分开,但它会出现以下错误:

  

stri_split_regex出错(string,pattern,n = n,simplify = TRUE,opts_regex = attr(pattern,:     在regexp模式中错误地嵌套括号。 (U_REGEX_MISMATCHED_PAREN)

有没有办法根据单个函数中的模式将字符列拆分成多个列?

3 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:4)

您可以使用

library(stringr)

data.frame(str_split_fixed(df$District, " ", 3))

    X1      X2      X3
1 District   -    North West (01)
2 District   -    North West (01)
3 District   -    North West (01)
4 District   -    North West (01)
5 District   -    North West (01)
6 District   -    North West (01)

您可以使用gsub删除此处的其他内容,

gsub("[[:digit:]]","",df$X3)
gsub("[[:punct:]]","",df$X3)

答案 1 :(得分:2)

您可以使用gsub获得所需内容:

gsub("^.* +- +([A-Za-z ]+) \\(.*$", "\\1", df$District)
[1] "North West" "North West" "North West" "North West" "North West" "North West"

gsub的第一个参数(“^。* + - +([A-Za-z] +)\(。* $”)是一个正则表达式。它可以解释如下: / p>

从字符串“^”的开头,匹配任何字符“。*”,后跟至少一个空格,连字符和至少一个空格“+ - +”。然后捕获由(至少一个)字母和空格“[A-Za-z] +”组成的下一个文本“()”。当你到达一个空格后跟一个括号“\\(”,然后匹配所有内容直到文本末尾“。* $”。停止捕获。

gsub的第二个参数,“\\ 1”表示将文本替换为括号所捕获的文本。

将其分配给变量:

df$name <- gsub("^.* +- +([A-Za-z ]+) \\(.*$", "\\1", df$District)

答案 2 :(得分:2)

您还可以匹配并提取:

library(stringi)
library(dplyr)
library(purrr)

mutate(x,
       name=map_chr(stri_match_all_regex(District, "- ([[:alpha:]]+ [[:alpha:]]+) "), function(x) x[,2]),
       code=map_chr(stri_match_all_regex(District, "\\(([[:digit:]]+)\\)"), function(x) x[,2]))

## 1 District - North West (01) All ages 3656539 213950 3442589 North West   01
## 2 District - North West (01)        0   56131   3589   52542 North West   01
## 3 District - North West (01)        1   58644   3757   54887 North West   01
