Good morning. I have a factor that contains 1,418,303 Clinical Procedure Code (CPT). A CPT Code is 5 char. However, among my data there are many values that are less, 2, 3, 4, as well as NA's I get the count of NA's from the str() function = 58,481 Using the nchar function (I converted the Factor to a character column first) I get the first 1K values. (Perhaps this is not necessary with an alternative function?) # edt1a$ProcedureCode1 <- levels(edt1a$ProcedureCode)[edt1a$ProcedureCode] #https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/base/versions/3.6.2/topics/nchar [989] 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 [ reached getOption("max.print") -- omitted 1417303 entries ] What I would like to do is: 1. Identify the number (Count) of values that are less than 5 char (i.e. 2 char = 150, 3 char = 925, 4 char = 1002) Probably look something like this: |Var1 | Freq| |:------|-----:| |2 | 150 | |3 | 925 | |4 | 1002| 2. Replace with 99999 as well as replace the NA's with 99999 head(edt1a$ProcedureCode1, n= 50) #Not apparent in top 50 but they are there [1] "44207" "99478" "99478" "99479" "98927" "01610" "99396" "81025" "64645" "99478" "99479" "99479" "99479" "99479" "99479" "97110" "J1885" "19081" "99479" [20] "99478" "99479" "99479" "99479" "99213" "99213" "98927" "96372" "92507" "99479" "99478" "99478" "99478" "99479" "77065" "19083" "95874" "99244" "A7034" [39] "A7046" "71275" "J1170" "90471" "87591" "80053" "98926" "A4649" "A7033" "43644" "85025" "73080" str(edt1a$ProcedureCode) #Factor w/ 6244 Factor w/ 6244 levels "0003M","00100",..: 1775 4732 4732 4733 4586 147 4708 3108 2400 4732 ... str(edt1a$ProcedureCode1) chr [1:1418303] "44207" "99478" "99478" "99479" "98927" "01610" "99396" "81025" "64645" "99478" "99479" "99479" "99479" "99479" "99479" "97110" "J1885" ... #Some examples from using sink and knitr sink("ProcCodeV2.txt") knitr::kable(table(edt1a$ProcedureCode1)) closeAllConnections() |Var1 | Freq| |:------|-----:| |0003M | 1| |0110 | 4|<-- |0111 | 5|<-- |01112 | 11| |0112 | 14|<-- |01120 | 3| |0113 | 2|<-- |01130 | 1| |0114 | 1|<-- |01160 | 3| |01170 | 4| |0120 | 7|<-- |01200 | 8| |01202 | 26| |0121 | 7|<-- |01210 | 19| |01214 | 125| |01215 | 5| |0122 | 2|<-- |01220 | 2| |01230 | 11| |0124 | 5|<-- |171 | 1|<-- |17106 | 6| Thank you for any help.
