How to filter a data frame
I have a data frame and tried to select only the observations I'm interested in by this:
data[data["Var1"]>10]
Unfortunately, this command destroys the data.frame
structur开发者_StackOverflowe and returns a long vector
.
What I want to get is the data.frame
shortened by the observations that don't match my criteria.
You are missing a comma in your statement.
Try this:
data[data[, "Var1"]>10, ]
Or:
data[data$Var1>10, ]
Or:
subset(data, Var1>10)
As an example, try it on the built-in dataset, mtcars
data(mtcars)
mtcars[mtcars[, "mpg"]>25, ]

Another method utilizing the dplyr package:
library(dplyr)
df <- mtcars %>%
filter(mpg > 25)
Without the chain (%>%) operator:
library(dplyr)
df <- filter(mtcars, mpg > 25)
