Working with Data Structures in R

bookColumn and Row Operations

When working with data frames in R, you often need to add, remove, or modify columns and rows to organize and analyze your data effectively. Adding a new column can help you derive new insights, while adding or removing rows allows you to update your dataset as needed.

Note
Definition

The rbind() function in R is used to add rows to a data frame, while cbind() is used to add columns. Both functions combine objects of the same type and structure, making them essential tools for modifying data frames.

students <- data.frame( Name = c("Alice", "Bob", "Carol"), Grade = c(85, 92, 76) ) # Add a new column for pass/fail status based on grades students$Status <- ifelse(students$Grade >= 80, "Pass", "Fail") print(students)
copy

In this example, a new column called Status is added to the students data frame. The ifelse() function checks if the Grade is greater than or equal to 80. If it is, the value "Pass" is assigned; otherwise, "Fail" is assigned. This process creates a new column that gives you a quick overview of each student's result based on their grade.

students <- data.frame( Name = c("Alice", "Bob", "Carol"), Grade = c(85, 92, 76), Status = c("Pass", "Pass", "Fail") ) # Remove the 'Grade' column using negative indexing students <- students[ , -which(names(students) == "Grade")] # Add a new row for a student named Dave students <- rbind(students, data.frame(Name = "Dave", Status = "Pass")) print(students)
copy

To remove a column from a data frame, you can use negative indexing. In the code above, the Grade column is removed by selecting all columns except the one named "Grade". To add a new row, the rbind() function is used to combine the existing data frame with a new data frame containing the new row's data. This approach keeps your data frame updated as your dataset grows or changes.
