Hello,
I have the following dataset. Please note that there are missing values on
records 4 and 5:
id,age,weight,height,gender
1,22,180,72,m
2,13,100,67,f
3,5,40,40,f
4,6,42,,f
5,12,98,66,
6,50,255,60,m
I'm using the "By" function like this:
list1 <- by(dataset[c("weight", "height")],
dataset[c("age", "gender")],
colMeans,
na.rm = TRUE)
I then convert the list above to a frame like this:
as.data.frame( do.call(rbind, list1) )
I get this output from the code above:
weight height
1 40 40
2 42 NaN
3 100 67
4 180 72
5 255 60
I want to get the output above, but I also want two additional columns
named "age" and "gender" (with the age and gender values from the "By"
function output).
How would I do this?
