dmap: Map over the columns of a data frame

Description

dmap() is just like purrr::map() but always returns a data frame. In addition, it handles grouped or sliced data frames.

Usage

dmap(.d, .f, ...)

dmap_at(.d, .at, .f, ...)

dmap_if(.d, .p, .f, ...)

Arguments

.d

A data frame.

.f

A function, formula, or atomic vector.

If a function, it is used as is.

If a formula, e.g. ~ .x + 2, it is converted to a function. There are three ways to refer to the arguments:

  • For a single argument function, use .

  • For a two argument function, use .x and .y

  • For more arguments, use ..1, ..2, ..3 etc

This syntax allows you to create very compact anonymous functions.

If character vector, numeric vector, or list, it is converted to an extractor function. Character vectors index by name and numeric vectors index by position; use a list to index by position and name at different levels. Within a list, wrap strings in get-attr() to extract named attributes. If a component is not present, the value of .default will be returned.

...

Additional arguments passed on to .f.

.at

A character vector of names or a numeric vector of positions. Only those elements corresponding to .at will be modified.

.p

A single predicate function, a formula describing such a predicate function, or a logical vector of the same length as .x. Alternatively, if the elements of .x are themselves lists of objects, a string indicating the name of a logical element in the inner lists. Only those elements where .p evaluates to TRUE will be modified.

Details

dmap_at() and dmap_if() recycle length 1 vectors to the group sizes.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
# dmap() always returns a data frame:
dmap(mtcars, summary)

# dmap() also supports sliced data frames:
sliced_df <- mtcars[1:5] %>% slice_rows("cyl")
sliced_df %>% dmap(mean)
sliced_df %>% dmap(~ .x / max(.x))

# This is equivalent to the combination of by_slice() and dmap()
# with 'rows' collation of results:
sliced_df %>% by_slice(dmap, mean, .collate = "rows")
# }
