我有一个数据框，其中包含以下格式的观察结果：

对于特定CorrelationGuid中的每一行，我想找到X＆amp;定义的位置的欧几里德范数之间的差异。当前行中的Z值以及上一行中的Z值。
我可以像这样对整个数据框执行此操作：
norm_vec <- function(x,y) sqrt(x^2 + y^2)
sampleMag<- mutate(sampleDF, sqMag = norm_vec(Position_x, Position_z) - norm_vec(lag(Position_x, default = 0), lag(Position_z, default = 0)))
但这给了每一行的差异;我想在每个CorrelationGuid中做到这一点;也就是说，我不希望新的CorrelationGuid的第一行在进行计算时查看前一个CorrelationGuid的最后一行。
我可以尝试这样的一个CorrelationGuid：
sampleMag<- mutate(sampleDF, sqMag = ifelse(CorrelationGuid == "714e8a89-91a5-415b-b102-6ed5c0cf9f44",
(norm_vec(Position_x, Position_z) - norm_vec(lag(Position_x, default = 0), lag(Position_z, default = 0))), NA))
但那并不是我想要的;我想为每个 CorrelationGuid执行此操作，并且除了一个之外没有所有NAs。
我可以使用unique（）或distinct（）轻松生成唯一的CorrelationGuid值列表，但对于每个唯一的CorrelationGuid，运行上述逻辑的最佳方法是什么？
我可以找到每个CorrelationGuid的第一个和最后一个实例，然后遍历它，但是for循环在这里会非常慢，特别是如果在大型数据集上完成的话。
申请似乎合适，但我不确定如何在这里使用它。

只是对评论中的所有讨论都犹豫不决，我相信你正在寻找@jazzurro提供的内容......
sampleDF <- sampleDF %>% group_by(CorrelationGuid) %>%
mutate(sqMag = norm_vec(Position_x, Position_z) - norm_vec(lag(Position_x, default = 0), lag(Position_z, default = 0)))
sampleDF
