Use code like below to detect when you've scrolled to the bottom of a page/screen. In cases where subitemType is a type of text chunk, the actual chunk of text will be stored in it or in variable. In cases where subitemType is a type of object, the long id of the specific subObject will be assigned to it or variable each time through the loop. Otherwise, if variable (or it) is already a reference, it will be reset to be an ordinary variable before being used as the loop variable. If by reference is specified, variable is set to be a reference to each subitem. In the first format, where no specific variable is specified, the variable it is used. In the second and third formats, variable is the name of a variable which will be assigned the identifier or contents of a particular subitem each time through the repeat loop.
In all forms of the repeat with each statement, subitemType indicates the type of item being iterated over (if omitted in the third format shown above, "item" is assumed), and containingItem is the specific object or container whose parts are being iterated over. Virtually any of the combinations of subitemType and containingItem that are allowed with the number function can be used (that is, anything that can be counted within some containing object or container). Being able to count the number of occurrences is a convenient tool, and it is a simple and versatile tool that adds flexibility to R programming.These repeat formats execute the statements within the repeat loop (until the matching end repeat statement) exactly once for each object or part (as specified by subitemType) that is contained within the specified containingItem. So, you can put a group of vectors through the array formula and then the table() formula to get the same type of results. The table() function also works with arrays. Check out our handy guide about converting lists to dataframes here. This method can be used with dataframes, which make handling your data a lot more user-friendly. In this example, we have the sum of how many values are less than two and not less than two for each supplement. # counting occurrences in a column range checking It can tell you how many places in the dataset have a unique value above, below, or equal to a certain value. Range checking is one practical use of the table() function. The result is the addition of a column and row for that addition.
In this example, we included an argument that tells the table() function to include NA values. > table(df$supp, df$dose, useNA = "always") # checking occurrences in a column counting NA values In this situation instead of having a unique value of a number or a string, but rather an NA value, you may want to include a count of those values as well.
The first table array shows the effect of NA values and in the second table, they are counted. These were numeric values but we did not touch the string values. In this example, we substitute the original distinct values for NA values. This fact means that in general, you can ignore them. The table() function usually ignores NA or true false values and only count occurrences of a text string and numeric value. While it is unusual to have such an even distribution, it makes for an easy test case for future examples. In this example, the two columns of the data frame have a frequency of ten across each of their values.
