rdebuggingdplyr

Group_by + summarize not working (Looks like a bug in the package dplyr)


My question is rather problematic since I know the code is completely fine. I leave you below what I am doing (very simple stuff):

Means_region <- data %>% 
  mutate(year_fctr = case_when(edate < "1994-12-31" ~ "1990-1994",
                               edate > "1995-01-01" & edate < "1999-12-31" ~ "1995-1999",
                               edate > "2000-01-01" & edate < "2004-12-31" ~ "2000-2004",
                               edate > "2005-01-01" & edate < "2009-12-31" ~ "2005-2009",
                               edate > "2010-01-01" & edate < "2014-12-31" ~ "2010-2014",
                               edate > "2015-01-01" & edate < "2019-12-31" ~ "2015-2019",
                               edate > "2020-01-01" ~ "2020-2022")
         ) %>% 
  group_by(region, year_fctr) %>% 
  summarise(pol=mean(pol))

The issue is that even if the code creates perfectly fine the column year_fctr using mutate() and case_when() (I have checked it just using the mutate and the column exists), it just will not group it based on that existing column. The worst part of all of this is that it did work the day before yesterday and yesterday loading again the file and the code it won't work.

I have reset RStudio, cleaning and reloading all the objects in the environment and even resetting my computer and it will not cooperate, it just won't.

dput() from my dataframe of the beginning (taking the first ten rows head(data,10):

dput() is the following for the dataframe not working:

structure(list(pol = 0.00849904532770635), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -1L))

Please if you know how to get it working, specially any debugging tools so as to fix this absurd issue, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Update: I have applied @RuiBarradas solution to add the .by parameter in summarise, yet a new error has appeared.

Running traceback() as @yuk recommended gives the following output:

5: stop(simpleError(msg, call = if (p <- sys.parent(1L)) sys.call(p)))
4: stopifnot(length(rows) == 1)
3: quickdf(.data[names(cols)])
2: summarise(., pol = mean(pol), .by = c(region, year_fctr))
1: data %>% ungroup() %>% mutate(year_fctr = case_when(edate < "1994-12-31" ~ 
       "1990-1994", edate > "1995-01-01" & edate < "1999-12-31" ~ 
       "1995-1999", edate > "2000-01-01" & edate < "2004-12-31" ~ 
       "2000-2004", edate > "2005-01-01" & edate < "2009-12-31" ~ 
       "2005-2009", edate > "2010-01-01" & edate < "2014-12-31" ~ 
       "2010-2014", edate > "2015-01-01" & edate < "2019-12-31" ~ 
       "2015-2019", edate > "2020-01-01" ~ "2020-2022")) %>% summarise(pol = mean(pol), 
       .by = c(region, year_fctr))

Solution

  • Like I say in my comment to the question, the problem seems to come from the fact that the data is already grouped.
    The code below starts by ungrouping and then summarise with the argument .by to group/compute the summary statistics/ungroup all in the same instruction.

    source("~/so.txt")
    
    library(dplyr)
    #> 
    #> Attaching package: 'dplyr'
    #> The following objects are masked from 'package:stats':
    #> 
    #>     filter, lag
    #> The following objects are masked from 'package:base':
    #> 
    #>     intersect, setdiff, setequal, union
    
    data %>%
      ungroup() %>%
      mutate(year_fctr = case_when(edate < "1994-12-31" ~ "1990-1994",
                                   edate > "1995-01-01" & edate < "1999-12-31" ~ "1995-1999",
                                   edate > "2000-01-01" & edate < "2004-12-31" ~ "2000-2004",
                                   edate > "2005-01-01" & edate < "2009-12-31" ~ "2005-2009",
                                   edate > "2010-01-01" & edate < "2014-12-31" ~ "2010-2014",
                                   edate > "2015-01-01" & edate < "2019-12-31" ~ "2015-2019",
                                   edate > "2020-01-01" ~ "2020-2022")
      ) %>% 
      summarise(pol = mean(pol), .by = c(region, year_fctr))
    #> # A tibble: 7 × 3
