I was trying to get similar results from any other package. Being a beginner, I was not sure how to modify the syntax to get my output. lapply(split(BP_2bSexNoMV,BP_ 2bSexNoMV$Sex),function(x) (nrow(x[!complete.cases(x[,-2]),])/nrow(x))*100) #gives the percentage of rows of missing #values from the overall rows for Males and Females #$Female #[1] 72.65522 # #$Male #[1] 74.47401 #iF you want the percentage from the total number rows in Males and Females (without NA's in the the Sex column) lapply(split(BP_2bSexNoMV,BP_2bSexNoMV$Sex),function(x) (nrow(x[!complete.cases(x[,-2]),])/nrow(BP_2bSexNoMV))*100) #$Female #[1] 35.14377 # #$Male #[1] 38.45048 How do I interpret the above 2 difft results? 72.66% of values were missing among female participants?? Can you pl. clarify. Many thanks.
