从数据框列获取最频繁的字符串 [英] Get most frequent string from a data frame column
本文介绍了从数据框列获取最频繁的字符串的处理方法，对大家解决问题具有一定的参考价值，需要的朋友们下面随着小编来一起学习吧！
问题描述
我需要使用多行数据帧作为输入来返回n个最频繁出现的字符串。所有值都在同一列中，称为 MissingDates
I need to return the n most frequent occurrences of a string, using a multiple row data frame as the input. All the values are in the same column called "MissingDates"
这里是示例数据，总共约有5000行：
Here is sample data, in total there are about 5000 rows:

因此该函数将具有参数传递到哪里，它将从data.frame返回上面日期的n次最频繁出现。
So the function would have an argument passed where it would return the n most frequent occurrences of the dates above from the data.frame.
我查看了which.max，但无法计算列出了如何将其应用于多行（整个数据框列），或者为我提供多于一个日期（n）的输出。
I looked at which.max but haven't been able to figure out how to apply it to multiple rows (entire data frame column), or to give me more than a single date (n) as output.
如果仅使用一个输出值就可以使代码简单得多，那么作为我工作的起点，这是可以接受的。
If the code would be a great deal simpler with only a single output value, that is acceptable as a starting point for me to work from. Any pointers are appreciated.
这是一个pastebin，因为字符串的长度导致我遇到麻烦：

Here is a pastebin as I'm having trouble due to the length of the strings: http://pastebin.com/B1YPicC8
> str(gaps)
'data.frame': 5560 obs. of 3 variables:

推荐答案
似乎您需要以下内容：
功能
freqfunc <- function(x, n){
tail(sort(table(unlist(strsplit(as.character(x), ", ")))), n)
}
测试数据集
freqfunc(gaps$MissingDates, 5) # Five most frequent dates
## 1996-12-26 1997-12-26 1998-01-02 1999-12-31 2001-09-12
## 4 4 4 4 4
