Dear R-List,
I have a dataframe with one grouping variable (x) and three response variables
(y,z,w).
df<-data.frame(x=c(rep(1,3),rep(2,4),rep(3,5)),y=rnorm(12),z=c(3,4,5,NA,NA,NA,NA,1,2,1,2,1),w=c(1,2,3,3,4,3,5,NA,5,NA,7,8))
>df
x y z w
1 0.29306106 3 1
1 0.54797780 4 2
1 -1.38365548 5 3
2 -0.20407986 NA 3
2 -0.87322574 NA 4
2 -1.23356250 NA 3
2 0.43929374 NA 5
3 1.16405483 1 NA
3 1.07083464 2 5
3 -0.67463191 1 NA
3 -0.66410552 2 7
3 -0.02543358 1 8
Now I want to make a new dataframe df.sub comprising only cases pertaining to
groups, where the overall proportion of NAs in either of the response
variables y,z,w does not exceed 50%.
In the above example, e.g., this would be a dataframe with all cases of the
groups 1 and 3 (since there are 100% NAs in z for group 2)
>df.sub
x y z w
1 0.29306106 3 1
1 0.54797780 4 2
1 -1.38365548 5 3
3 1.16405483 1 NA
3 1.07083464 2 5
3 -0.67463191 1 NA
3 -0.66410552 2 7
3 -0.02543358 1 8
Please excuse me if the problem has already been treated somewhere, but so far
I was not able to find the right threat for my question in RSeek.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!
