[英]Conditional string concatenation in same column in R
I am new to R and have a very large irregular column in a data frame like this:我是 R 的新手,在这样的数据框中有一个非常大的不规则列:
x <- data.frame(section = c("BOOK I: Introduction", "Page one: presentation", "Page two: acknowledgments", "MAGAZINE II: Considerations", "Page one: characters", "Page two: index", "BOOK III: General Principles", "BOOK III: General Principles", "Page one: invitation"))
section
BOOK I: Introduction
Page one: presentation
Page two: acknowledgments
MAGAZINE II: Considerations
Page one: characters
Page two: index
BOOK III: General principles
BOOK III: General principles
Page one: invitation
I need to concatenate this column to look like this:我需要将此列连接成如下所示:
section
BOOK I: Introduction
BOOK I: Introduction / Page one: presentation
BOOK I: Introduction / Page two: acknowledgments
MAGAZINE II: Considerations
MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page one: characters
MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page two: index
BOOK III: General Principles
BOOK III: General Principles
BOOK III: General Principles / Page one: invitation
Basically the goal is to extract the value of the upper string based in a condition and then concatenate with the lower actualizing the value with a regex expression, but I really don't know how to do it.基本上,目标是根据条件提取上部字符串的值,然后使用正则表达式将值与下部字符串连接起来,但我真的不知道该怎么做。
Thanks in advance.提前致谢。
Here is one method:这是一种方法:
x <- data.frame(section = c("BOOK I: Introduction", "Page one: presentation", "Page two: acknowledgments", "MAGAZINE II: Considerations", "Page one: characters", "Page two: index", "BOOK III: General Principles", "BOOK III: General Principles", "Page one: invitation"))
x <- dplyr::mutate(x,
isSection = stringr::str_starts(section, "Page", negate = TRUE),
sectionNum = cumsum(isSection)
) |>
dplyr::group_by(sectionNum) |>
dplyr::mutate(newSection = dplyr::if_else(
condition = isSection,
true = section,
false = paste(dplyr::first(section), section, sep = " / ")
)) |>
ungroup()
x
#> # A tibble: 9 × 4
#> section isSection sectionNum newSection
#> <chr> <lgl> <int> <chr>
#> 1 BOOK I: Introduction TRUE 1 BOOK I: Introduction
#> 2 Page one: presentation FALSE 1 BOOK I: Introduction / Page…
#> 3 Page two: acknowledgments FALSE 1 BOOK I: Introduction / Page…
#> 4 MAGAZINE II: Considerations TRUE 2 MAGAZINE II: Considerations
#> 5 Page one: characters FALSE 2 MAGAZINE II: Considerations…
#> 6 Page two: index FALSE 2 MAGAZINE II: Considerations…
#> 7 BOOK III: General Principles TRUE 3 BOOK III: General Principles
#> 8 BOOK III: General Principles TRUE 4 BOOK III: General Principles
#> 9 Page one: invitation FALSE 4 BOOK III: General Principle…

Here, we first determine if the section
is a section title or a page title and save that as TRUE
or FALSE
.在这里,我们首先确定该
section
是部分标题还是页面标题,并将其保存为TRUE
或FALSE
。
Then, we label the pages belonging to a section by using cumsum()
(cumulative sum).然后,我们使用
cumsum()
(累积和)对属于某个部分的页面进行 label。 When we add up TRUE
and FALSE
values, TRUE
(here, sections) become 1
and increment the cumulative sum, but FALSE
(here, pages) become 0
and don't increment the cumulative sum, so all of the pages within a specific section receive the same value.当我们将
TRUE
和FALSE
值相加时, TRUE
(此处为部分)变为1
并增加累积总和,但FALSE
(此处为页面)变为0
并且不增加累积总和,因此特定部分内的所有页面获得相同的价值。
Lastly, we make a new section variable, this time using group_by()
and if_else()
to conditionally set the value.最后,我们创建一个新的节变量,这次使用
group_by()
和if_else()
来有条件地设置值。 If isSection
is TRUE
, we just keep the existing value of section
(the section title).如果
isSection
为TRUE
,我们只保留部分的现有值( section
标题)。 If isSection
is FALSE
, we concatenate the first value of section
from the group with the existing value of section
, separated by " / "
.如果
isSection
为FALSE
,我们将组中section
的第一个值与section
的现有值连接起来,以" / "
分隔。
using data.table:使用 data.table:
library(data.table)
setDT(x)[grepl("^Page.",section)==F, header:=section] %>%
.[,header:=zoo::na.locf(header)] %>%
.[section!=header,header:=paste0(header, " / ",section)] %>%
.[,.(section = header)] %>%
.[]
1: BOOK I: Introduction
2: BOOK I: Introduction / Page one: presentation
3: BOOK I: Introduction / Page two: acknowledgments
4: MAGAZINE II: Considerations
5: MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page one: characters
6: MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page two: index
7: BOOK III: General Principles
8: BOOK III: General Principles
9: BOOK III: General Principles / Page one: invitation
A rolling join could achieve this.滚动连接可以实现这一点。 In data.table:
在 data.table:
library( data.table )
# add a row column for joining by reference
x[ , row := .I ]
# pick out just the title rows. It looks like these start with either "BOOK" or "MAGAZINE"
books_magazines <- x[ grepl("^BOOK|^MAGAZINE", section),
.(row, book_magazine = section) ]
# join the 2 tables, using a rolling join to add the title row to subsequent rows
both_cols <- books_magazines[ x, on = .(row), roll = TRUE ]
# concatenate the 2 columns together where necessary, leave it alone if it's the title row
result <- both_cols[ , .(
section_string = fifelse( book_magazine == section,
book_magazine,
sprintf("%s / %s", book_magazine, section) )
) ]
This gives:这给出:
> result$section_string
[1] "BOOK I: Introduction"
[2] "BOOK I: Introduction / Page one: presentation"
[3] "BOOK I: Introduction / Page two: acknowledgments"
[4] "MAGAZINE II: Considerations"
[5] "MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page one: characters"
[6] "MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page two: index"
[7] "BOOK III: General Principles"
[8] "BOOK III: General Principles"
[9] "BOOK III: General Principles / Page one: invitation"
You can do:你可以做:
unlist(lapply(split(x$section, cumsum(grepl('^[A-Z]{3}', x$section))),
function(y) {
if(length(y) == 1) return(y)
else c(y[1], paste(y[1], y[-1], sep = " / "))
}), use.names = FALSE)
#> [1] "BOOK I: Introduction"
#> [2] "BOOK I: Introduction / Page one: presentation"
#> [3] "BOOK I: Introduction / Page two: acknowledgments"
#> [4] "MAGAZINE II: Considerations"
#> [5] "MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page one: characters"
#> [6] "MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page two: index"
#> [7] "BOOK III: General Principles"
#> [8] "BOOK III: General Principles"
#> [9] "BOOK III: General Principles / Page one: invitation"
An slightly simpler data.table
approach:稍微简单一点的
data.table
方法:
library(data.table)
setDT(x)
x[, g := cumsum(grepl('(BOOK|MAGAZINE)', section))]
x[, section := ifelse(seq_along(section) == 1,
section, paste(section[1], section, sep = ' / ')), by = .(g)]
x[, g := NULL]
The output is: output 是:
> x
section
1: BOOK I: Introduction
2: BOOK I: Introduction / Page one: presentation
3: BOOK I: Introduction / Page two: acknowledgments
4: MAGAZINE II: Considerations
5: MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page one: characters
6: MAGAZINE II: Considerations / Page two: index
7: BOOK III: General Principles
8: BOOK III: General Principles
9: BOOK III: General Principles / Page one: invitation
