索引 data.table 中的唯一值 [英] Index unique values in data.table
问题描述
不确定如何用文字表达问题,但是如何为 data.table 创建一个索引列,当出现不同值时每组递增?
Not sure how to formulate the question in words, but how can I create an index-column for a data.table that per group increments when a different value appear?
这里是 MWE
library(data.table)
in.data <- data.table(fruits=c(rep("banana", 4), rep("pear", 5)),vendor=c("a", "b", "b", "c", "d", "d", "e", "f", "f"))
这是 R 代码应该生成的结果
Here is the result the R-code should generate
in.data[, wanted.column:=c(1,2,2,3,1,1,2,3,3)]
# fruits vendor wanted.column
# 1: banana a 1
# 2: banana b 2
# 3: banana b 2
# 4: banana c 3
# 5: pear d 1
# 6: pear d 1
# 7: pear e 2
# 8: pear f 3
# 9: pear f 3
因此,它在每个水果中标记每个供应商 1、2、3…….可能有一个非常简单的解决方案,但我被卡住了.
So it labels each vendor 1, 2, 3, ... within each fruit. There is probably a very simple solution, but I'm stuck.
推荐答案
我有一些想法.您可以使用嵌套组计数器:
I have a few ideas. You can use a nested group counter:
in.data[, w := setDT(list(v = vendor))[, g := .GRP, by=v]$g, by=fruits]
或者,创建一个运行 ID,它依赖于排序的数据(感谢 @eddi)并且看起来很浪费:
Alternately, make a run ID, which depends on sorted data (thanks @eddi) and seems wasteful:
in.data[, w := rleid(vendor), by=fruits]
base-R 方法可能是:
The base-R approach would probably be:
in.data[, w := match(vendor, unique(vendor)), by=fruits]
# or in base R ...
in.data$w = with(in.data, ave(vendor, fruits, FUN = function(x) match(x, unique(x))))
