Hi everyone,
I am trying to generate a conditional dummy variable ”X" with the following
rules
set X=1 if Y is =1, two years prior to the NA. [0,0,NA].
For example, if the pattern for Y is 0,0,NA then the X variable is =0 for all
the two years prior to the NA. If the pattern for Y is 0,1,NA or 1,0,NA then
the X =1 . To be clear, if 1,1,NA then the X=1 that first specific year, it
should only count once (X=1), not twice.
The code that I have now is not complete and I would appreciate some advice
here. This is the code:
dat2 <- dat1 %>%
group_by(country) %>%
group_by(grp = cumsum(is.na(lag(Y))), add = TRUE) %>%
mutate(first_year_at_1 = match(1, Y) * any(is.na(Y)) * any(tail(Y, 3) == 1L),
X = {x <- integer(length(Y)) ; x[first_year_at_1] <- 1L ; x}) %>%
ungroup()
It doesn’t really generate what I described above. Any help here would be much
appreciated.
Below you can see my sample data with the desired outcome ”X” dummy in it.
Thank you!
