Re: [R] grep(pattern = each element of a vector) ?
Hi,
res- ddply(.data=df1,
.variables='Taxa',
.fun=transform,
Class=find.class(Taxa))
#Warning messages:
#1: In grep(x, df2$Taxa) :
# argument 'pattern' has length 1 and only the first element will be used
#2: In grep(x, df2$Taxa) :
# argument 'pattern' has length 1 and only the first element will be used
#3: In grep(x, df2$Taxa) :
# argument 'pattern' has length 1 and only the first element will be used
May be it is better to modify the function:
find.class- function(x) df2[grep(unique(x),df2$Taxa),'Class']
res1- ddply(.data=df1,
.variables='Taxa',
.fun=transform,
Class=find.class(Taxa)) #no warnings
#though it doesn't have any effect in the end result.
identical(res,res1)
#[1] TRUE
A.K.

Jake,
You can use the plyr library or some form of apply. If you are on a 64bit
system you can multithread and it goes much faster.
something like this(for 32bit):
require(plyr)
df1 - data.frame(Taxa = c('blue', 'red', NA,'blue', 'red', NA,'blue', 'red',
NA))
df2 - data.frame(Taxa = c( 'blue', 'red', NA), Class = c('Z', 'HI', 'A'))
#function to do the lookup
find.class-function(x)df2[grep(x, df2$Taxa),'Class']
ddply(.data=df1,
.variables='Taxa',
.fun=transform,
Class=find.class(Taxa))

Hi,
I have a large dataframe that contains species names. I have a second
dataframe that contains species names and some additional info, called 'Class',
about each species. I would like match the species name is the first data
frame with the 'Class' information contained in the second. Since the species
names are often formatted differently between the data sets, merge doesn't work
well. grep does the trick, but the function needs to be called separately for
each observation in the first data frame. I put grep into a loop, but this is
too slow. Is there a way to run grep repeatedly without resorting to a loop?
Possibly something in the apply family?
df1 - data.frame(Taxa = c('blue', 'red', NA))
df2 - data.frame(Taxa = c( 'blue', 'red', NA), Class = c('Z', 'HI', 'A'))
index - NULL
for (i in 1:length(df1$Taxa)) {
index[i] - grep(df1$Taxa[1], df2$Taxa)
}
index
