I have a data frame with some factor columns.
I want to drop the rows with rare factor values
(and remove the factor values from the factors).
E.g., frame$MyFactor takes values
A 1,000 times,
B 2,000 times,
C 30 times and
D 4 times.
I want to remove all rows which assume rare values (<1%), i.e., C and D.
i.e.,
frame <- frame[[! (frame$MyFactor %in% c("A","B"))]]
except that I probably got the syntax wrong
and I want c("A","B") to be generated automatically from frame$MyFactor
and the number 0.01 (1%).
Thanks!
