我想虚拟代码,即为列物种创建标志变量。
我写了下面的代码:
create_dummies <- function(data, categorical_preds){
if (categorical_preds == "setosa"){data$setosa_flg <- 1}
else {data$setosa_flg <- 0}
if (categorical_preds == "versicolor"){data$versicolor_flg <- 1}
else {data$versicolor_flg <- 0}
if (categorical_preds == "virginica"){data$virginica_flg <- 1}
else {data$virginica_flg <- 0}
return(data)
}
create_dummies(iris,iris$Species)
我收到警告:
Warning messages:
1: In if (categorical_preds == "setosa") { :
the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
2: In if (categorical_preds == "versicolor") { :
the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
3: In if (categorical_preds == "virginica") { :
the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
然后我将代码更改为:
create_dummies <- function(data, categorical_preds){
ifelse(categorical_preds == "setosa",data$setosa_flg <- 1,data$setosa_flg <- 0)
ifelse(categorical_preds == "versicolor",data$versicolor_flg <- 1,data$versicolor_flg <- 0)
ifelse(categorical_preds == "virginica",data$virginica_flg <- 1,data$virginica_flg <- 0)
return(data)
}
create_dummies(iris,iris$Species)
这次没有警告,但新的虚拟变量始终为 0。
作为下一步,我想避免硬编码,所以我写了
create_dummies <- function(data, categorical_preds){
catvar <- (unique(categorical_preds))
for (i in 1:length(catvar)){
iris[catvar[i]] <- ifelse(iris$Species == catvar[i],1,0)
}
return(data)
}
create_dummies(iris,iris$Species)
这有什么问题?
问题:
if(){}
和 ifelse()
函数有什么区别? ifelse()
中,如果条件是 true
,我如何做多个 Action ?示例:
ifelse(categorical_preds == "setosa",data$setosa_flg <- 1 print(iris$Species),data$setosa_flg <- 0)
。 最佳答案
警告信息:
the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
告诉您在
if
条件中使用向量等效于使用其第一个元素:[if (v == 1)] ~ [if (v[1] == 1)] ## v here is a vector
您应该使用矢量化的
ifelse
。例如,你可以这样写你的条件:create_dummies<-function(data, categorical_preds){
## here I show only the first condition
data$setosa_flg <-
ifelse (categorical_preds=="setosa",1,0)
data
}
