Hi,
I am collecting replies from a survey and counts replies by the table()
function. The function below carries two
data frames and counts the observations of the findings in the first
parameter vector given the value of the second as shown in the code below.
My trouble is that the vector kp_vec at the end of the inner loop seems to
ignore the value when the
table() counts zero occurences of one of the outcomes. I will have
y n
34 0
This is not picked up in the matrix row after the loops with something like
"y" "n" "y"
"Funding" "Survival" 12 5 34
where the last "n" value is missing. This causes my returned data frame to
fail and in all, rather miserable for the plot.
I see the point of this in a way, so I believe it is not a bug. I'd love to
get my zero back. Is it a subtle point in R I have missed?
kpi_test <- function ( paramvec, kpivec ) {
kp_vec <- c()
res_kpi_y <- c()
res_kpi_n <- c()
tmp_param <- c()
tmp_kpi <- c()
for(param_no in seq(from=1, to=length(paramvec), by = 1)) {
tmp_param <- paramvec[param_no]
for (kpi_no in seq(from=1, to=length(kpivec), by = 1)) {
tmp_kpi <- kpivec[kpi_no]
res_kpi_y <- table( tmp_param [ tmp_kpi == 'y' ] )
res_kpi_n <- table( tmp_param [ tmp_kpi == 'n' ] )
kp_vec <- c(kp_vec, names(tmp_param), names(tmp_kpi), res_kpi_y, res_kpi_n )
}
}
matrix_vector <- matrix(kp_vec, ncol=6, byrow=T)
fres <- data.frame(matrix_vector)
return( fres )
}
