Question

我的数据框中有一列是字符列表。这是专栏categories

str(df)
Classes ‘tbl_df’, ‘tbl’ and 'data.frame':   4 obs. of  3 variables:
 $ categories:List of 4
  ..$ : chr  "Tex-Mex" "Mexican" "Fast Food" "Restaurants"
  ..$ : chr  "Hawaiian" "Restaurants" "Barbeque"
  ..$ : chr  "Restaurants" "Italian" "Seafood"
  ..$ : chr  "Restaurants" "Mexican" "American (Traditional)"
 $ name      : chr  "Taco Bell" "Ohana Hawaiian BBQ" "Carrabba's Italian Grill" "Don Tequila"
 $ type      : chr  "business" "business" "business" "business"

以下是前四行中的dput：

structure(list(categories = list(c("Tex-Mex", "Mexican", "Fast Food", 
"Restaurants"), c("Hawaiian", "Restaurants", "Barbeque"), c("Restaurants", 
"Italian", "Seafood"), c("Restaurants", "Mexican", "American (Traditional)"
)), name = c("Taco Bell", "Ohana Hawaiian BBQ", "Carrabba's Italian Grill", 
"Don Tequila"), type = c("business", "business", "business", 
"business")), row.names = c(NA, -4L), class = c("tbl_df", "tbl", 
"data.frame"), .Names = c("categories", "name", "type"))

我想从该列表中提取一些值，以便这些值是唯一保留在该向量中的值。

例如，我想过滤掉所有不是“墨西哥”而不是“餐馆”的值。所以剩下的唯一价值就是“墨西哥”和“餐馆”。为此，我尝试了这个解决方案：

df_test <- df %>% unnest(categories) %>% 
          filter(str_detect(categories, "Mexican")
                (str_detect(categories, "Restaurants")) %>% 
          nest(categories)

但结果如下：

str(df_test)
Classes ‘tbl_df’, ‘tbl’ and 'data.frame':   4 obs. of  3 variables:
 $ name: chr  "Taco Bell" "Ohana Hawaiian BBQ" "Carrabba's Italian Grill" "Don Tequila"
 $ type: chr  "business" "business" "business" "business"
 $ data:List of 4
  ..$ :Classes ‘tbl_df’, ‘tbl’ and 'data.frame':    2 obs. of  1 variable:
  .. ..$ categories: chr  "Mexican" "Restaurants"
  ..$ :Classes ‘tbl_df’, ‘tbl’ and 'data.frame':    1 obs. of  1 variable:
  .. ..$ categories: chr "Restaurants"
  ..$ :Classes ‘tbl_df’, ‘tbl’ and 'data.frame':    1 obs. of  1 variable:
  .. ..$ categories: chr "Restaurants"
  ..$ :Classes ‘tbl_df’, ‘tbl’ and 'data.frame':    2 obs. of  1 variable:
  .. ..$ categories: chr  "Restaurants" "Mexican"

问题是，之后该列不是像type列那样的字符向量。

是否有可能过滤掉这些字符，以便在此过程之后列是普通字符向量，如name和type列？我不想替换通过此过程删除的值/行。因此，如果某一行中没有“墨西哥”或“餐馆”，则该行将被删除。

二手包： dplyr stringr

Answer 1

使用lapply对列表进行子集化

lapply(df1$categories, function(x) x[x %in% c("Mexican", "Restaurants")])

[[1]]
[1] "Mexican"     "Restaurants"

[[2]]
[1] "Restaurants"

[[3]]
[1] "Restaurants"

[[4]]
[1] "Restaurants" "Mexican"

添加没有匹配条件的行来过滤行

df1 <- rbind(df1, c(list("Nothing to match"), "drop me", "business"))
df1$categories <- lapply(df1$categories, function(x) x[x %in% c("Mexican", "Restaurants")])
df1[sapply(df1$categories, length) > 0, ]

将列表折叠为字符串

df1$categories <- sapply(df1$categories, function(x) paste(sort(x[x %in% c("Mexican", "Restaurants")]), collapse=" "))
df1[nchar(df1$categories) > 0, ]

# A tibble: 4 x 3
           categories                     name     type
                <chr>                    <chr>    <chr>
1 Mexican Restaurants                Taco Bell business
2         Restaurants       Ohana Hawaiian BBQ business
3         Restaurants Carrabba's Italian Grill business
4 Mexican Restaurants              Don Tequila business

从列表中提取某些字符并将其转换为字符向量
