I have a column - "issue_slip" in R dataframe - "vouchers" with values/rows such as
Issue slip: IS/001, IS/001, IS/001, IS/002, IS/002, IS/002
and another column "rec_status" with values 0 or 1. Each issue_slip row can have rec_status 0 or 1. I would like to keep only those issue_slips that have all rec_status as 0 OR 0 or 1 --> remove issue_slip rows that have all rec_status as 1.
For example,
should show up and not get filtered out because at least one row has rec_status = 1
I tried using the filter and subset functions but could not figure out how to go about filtering this in the same column
Sample data
quux <- data.frame(issue_slip = c("IS/001", "IS/001", "IS/001", "IS/002", "IS/002", "IS/002"), rec_status = c(0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1))
quux
# issue_slip rec_status
# 1 IS/001 0
# 2 IS/001 0
# 3 IS/001 1
# 4 IS/002 1
# 5 IS/002 1
# 6 IS/002 1
ind <- ave(quux$rec_status, quux$issue_slip, FUN = function(z) any(z %in% 0)) > 0
ind
# [1] TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE
quux[ind,]
# issue_slip rec_status
# 1 IS/001 0
# 2 IS/001 0
# 3 IS/001 1
library(dplyr)
quux %>%
group_by(issue_slip) %>%
filter(any(rec_status %in% 0)) %>%
ungroup()
# # A tibble: 3 × 2
# issue_slip rec_status
# <chr> <dbl>
# 1 IS/001 0
# 2 IS/001 0
# 3 IS/001 1
library(data.table)
as.data.table(quux)[, .SD[any(rec_status %in% 0),], by = issue_slip]
# issue_slip rec_status
# <char> <num>
# 1: IS/001 0
# 2: IS/001 0
# 3: IS/001 1
Note, I'm using rec_status %in% 0
instead of rec_status == 0
for a reason: since we have no sample data (and often even when we do), I have no assurance that there are not any NA
s in the data; note that NA == 0
will return NA
itself and therefore often fail non-defensive code, but NA %in% 0
returns false, which is often what we need (and I'm inferring it's what we want here).
