I am new to PDL. R's ifelse() method can do conditonal element selection. For example,
x <- c(1,2,3,4)
ifelse(x%%2, x, x*2)
# [1] 1 4 3 8
Anyone knows how to do this in PDL? I know you can do it like below, but is there any better ways?
pdl(map { $_ % 2 ? $_ : $_*2 } @{$x->unpdl} )
Answering the question myself. It can be something like this,
use PDL;
sub ifelse {
my ( $test, $yes, $no ) = @_;
$test = pdl($test);
my ( $ok, $nok ) = which_both($test);
my $rslt = zeros( $test->dim(0) );
unless ( $ok->isempty ) {
$yes = pdl($yes);
$rslt->slice($ok) .= $yes->index( $ok % $yes->dim(0) );
}
unless ( $nok->isempty ) {
$no = pdl($no);
$rslt->slice($nok) .= $no->index( $nok % $no->dim(0) );
}
return $rslt;
}
my $x = pdl( 1, 2, 3, 4 );
say ifelse( $x % 2, $x, $x * 2 ); # [1 4 3 8]
say ifelse( $x % 2, 5, sequence( 3 ) ); # [5 1 5 0]
say ifelse( 42, $x, $x * 2 ); # [1]
