Hello,

The following might be a better solution.
I include a minimal data set as an example.


Date <- c(rep(as.Date("2018-03-29"), 4),
          rep(as.Date("2018-03-30"), 4),
          rep(as.Date("2018-04-01"), 4))

ari18.test3 <- data.frame(Date)
ari18.test3$GameNum <- 1

#---

d <- c(0, diff(ari18.test3$Date) != 0)
ari18.test3$GameNum <- ari18.test3$GameNum + cumsum(d)

ari18.test3
#         Date GameNum
#1  2018-03-29       1
#2  2018-03-29       1
#3  2018-03-29       1
#4  2018-03-29       1
#5  2018-03-30       2
#6  2018-03-30       2
#7  2018-03-30       2
#8  2018-03-30       2
#9  2018-04-01       3
#10 2018-04-01       3
#11 2018-04-01       3
#12 2018-04-01       3


Hope this helps,

Hello,

There was no attachment, R-Help allows only a limited number of file types, see the posting guide and try reposting.

As for the question, try ifelse, the vectorized fom of if/else.

ifelse(ari18.test3$Date > lag(ari18.test3$Date), ari18.tesm3$GameNum + 1, ari18.test3$gameNum)


(Not tested, since there is no data.)

Hope this helps,

Attached is every at bat for the Arizona Diamondback’s first three games of 2018 – BBdata1.rda.  I added the Date and DHCode variables by parsing the first variable labeled GameID.

BBdata2 is a reduced dataset with five variables as shown in the str() command.

data.frame':    234 obs. of  5 variables:
  $ GameID : Factor w/ 3 levels "ARI201803290",..: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...   $ Date   : Date, format: "2018-03-29" "2018-03-29" "2018-03-29" "2018-03-29" ...
  $ DHCode : Factor w/ 1 level "0": 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...
  $ GameNum: num  1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...
  $ Date2  : Date, format: NA "2018-03-29" "2018-03-29" "2018-03-29" ...
   I’m trying to increment the GameNum (game number) to game 2 when the date changes from 2018-03-29 to 2018-03-30 in row 81 and to game 3 in row 165.

According to my R for Dummies book the following code should work but it doesn’t.  I keep getting the following error.  Any suggestions?

if(ari18.test3$Date > lag(ari18.test3$Date)) {ari18.test3$gameNum <- ari18.tesm3$GameNum + 1}
Warning message:
In if (ari18.test3$Date > lag(ari18.test3$Date)) { :
   the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
             >


Thanks.
