Hi all,

zoo::rollmean() is a nice idea. But if I understand Mike correctly, he wants 5 out of any 7 consecutive logicals to be TRUE, where these 5 do not necessarily need to be consecutive themselves. (remaining open question: could, e.g., the condition on c1 be TRUE for rows 1,2,3,4,5 and on c2 for rows 3,4,5,6,7, or would it need to be TRUE for the same rows?). Then something like this would make sense:

any(rollmean(dat$c1>=100,7)>=5/7-.01 & rollmean(dat$c2>=8,7)>=5/7-.01))

or

any(rollmean(dat$c1>=100,7)>=5/7-.01 & dat$c2>=8,7)>=5/7-.01))

depending on the open question above.

The "-.01" above may be necessary in light of FAQ 7.31.

HTH,
Stephan

Hi Michael,

The days in your example do not look continuous (at least from my
thinking), so you may have extra requirements in mind, but take a look
at this code.  My general thought was first to turn each column into a
logical vector (c1 >= 100 and c2 >= 8).  Taking advantage of the fact
that R treats TRUE as 1 and FALSE as 0, compute a rolling mean.  If
(and only if) 5 consecutive values are TRUE, the mean will be 1.  Next
I added the rolling means for each column, and then tested whether any
were 2 (i.e., 1 + 1).

Cheers,

Josh

Sorry for not being clear.

In the dataset there are around 100 or so days of data (in the case also rows 
of data)

I need to make sure that the person meets that c1 is at least 100 AND c2 is at 
least 8 for 5 of 7 continuous days.

I will play with what I have and see if I can find out how to do this.

Thanks for the help!

Mike,

I am slightly unclear on what you want to do. Do you want to check rows
1 and 7 or 1 *to* 7? Should c1 be at least 100 for *any one* or *all*
rows you are looking at, and same for c2?

You can sort your data like this:
data <- data[order(data$ds),]

Type ?order for help. But also do this for added enlightenment...:

library(fortunes)
fortune("dog")

Next, your analysis on the sorted data frame. As I said, I am not
entirely clear on what you are looking at, but the following may solve
your problem with choices "1 to 7" and "any one" above.

foo <- 0
for ( ii in 1:(nrow(data)-8) ) {
  if (any(data$c1[ii+seq(0,6)]>=100) & any(data$c2[ii+seq(0,6)]>=8)) {
    foo <- 1
    break
  }
}

The variable "foo" should contain what you want it to. Look at ?any
(and, if this does not do what you want it to, at ?all) for further info.

No doubt this could be vectorized, but I think the loop is clear enough.

Good luck!
Stephan

Hello R users,

I am a researcher at the University of Michigan looking for a solution to an R 
problem.  I have loaded my data in from a mysql database and it looks like this

data
           ds c1 c2
1  2010-04-03        100           0
2  2010-04-30      11141          15
3  2010-05-01      3          16
4  2010-05-02       7615          14
5  2010-05-03       6910          17
6  2010-05-04       5035          3
7  2010-05-05       3007          15
8  2010-05-06       4          14
9  2010-05-07       8335          17
10 2010-05-08       2897          13
11 2010-05-09       6377          17
12 2010-05-10       3177          17
13 2010-05-11       7946          15
14 2010-05-12       8705          0
15 2010-05-13       9030          16
16 2010-05-14       8682          16
17 2010-05-15       8440          15


What I am trying to do is sort by ds, and take rows 1,7, see if c1 is at least 
100 AND c2 is at least 8. If it is not, start with check rows 2,8 and if not 
there 3,9....until it loops over the entire file.   If it finds a set that 
matches, set a new variable equal to 1, if never finds a match, set it equal to 
0.

I have done this in stata but on this project we are trying to use R.  Is this 
something that can be done in R, if so, could someone point me in the correct 
direction.

Thanks,
