R 计数 NA 按组 [英] R count NA by group
问题描述
有人可以解释为什么我使用聚合函数按组计算缺失值会得到不同的答案吗?另外,是否有更好的方法使用本机 R 函数按组计算缺失值?
Could someone please explain why I get different answers using the aggregate function to count missing values by group? Also, is there a better way to count missing values by group using a native R function?
DF <- data.frame(YEAR=c(2000,2000,2000,2001,2001,2001,2001,2002,2002,2002), X=c(1,NA,3,NA,NA,NA,7,8,9,10))
DF
aggregate(X ~ YEAR, data=DF, function(x) { sum(is.na(x)) })
with(DF, aggregate(X, list(YEAR), function(x) { sum(is.na(x)) }))
aggregate(X ~ YEAR, data=DF, function(x) { sum(! is.na(x)) })
with(DF, aggregate(X, list(YEAR), function(x) { sum(! is.na(x)) }))
推荐答案
?aggregate
的帮助页面指出公式方法有一个参数 na.action
默认设置为 na.omit
.
The help page at ?aggregate
points out that the formula method has an argument na.action
which is set by default to na.omit
.
na.action
:一个函数,它指示当数据包含NA
值时应该发生什么.默认是忽略给定变量中的缺失值.
na.action
: a function which indicates what should happen when the data containNA
values. The default is to ignore missing values in the given variables.
将该参数改为 NULL
或 na.pass
以获得您可能期望的结果:
Change that argument to NULL
or na.pass
instead to get the results you are probably expecting:
# aggregate(X ~ YEAR, data=DF, function(x) {sum(is.na(x))}, na.action = na.pass)
aggregate(X ~ YEAR, data=DF, function(x) {sum(is.na(x))}, na.action = NULL)
# YEAR X
# 1 2000 1
# 2 2001 3
# 3 2002 0
