Extracting Information Based on a Pattern with Comma Delimited Text Introduction In this blog post, we will explore how to extract information from a comma-delimited text and identify rows that match specific patterns. We will use R programming language and the popular data manipulation packages dplyr and tidyr. Understanding the Problem We are given a dataset with a column named “Funding” which contains comma-separated values of project sponsors. The task is to identify rows where either “NIH” or “NIA” appears alone at the beginning of the row, or between two semi-colons.

Removing Message when Using attach() Function in R Introduction The attach() function in R is a convenient way to load data directly into the global environment without having to specify which variables are part of the dataset. However, this convenience comes with a cost: it can mask other objects in the global environment, leading to unexpected behavior and confusing error messages. In this article, we’ll delve into the world of R programming and explore how to remove those pesky messages when using attach().

Understanding Child Views in iOS Development ============================================= As an iOS developer, controlling the size and layout of child views can be a challenging task.

Horizontal Barplots and Average Values: A Deeper Dive In this article, we’ll explore the concept of horizontal barplots and how to create them using R. We’ll also discuss the average values table that is often displayed alongside these plots. Introduction to Barplots A barplot is a type of chart used to display categorical data. It consists of bars of different lengths, each corresponding to a category in the data. The length of the bar indicates the frequency or value associated with that category.

Using the %in% Operator with select in R Introduction In recent years, the use of data manipulation and analysis has become increasingly popular, particularly in the field of statistics and data science. One of the key libraries used for data manipulation is the Tidyverse, a collection of packages that provide tools for efficient data manipulation and visualization. In this article, we will explore how to use the %in% operator with select from the Tidyverse.

Query to Get Current Year from Amazon Redshift Amazon Redshift is a fast, columnar relational database service that makes it easy to query large datasets. However, querying the current year can be challenging due to differences in date formatting and data types across various systems. In this article, we will explore different SQL queries to retrieve the current year from an Amazon Redshift database. Understanding Date Formats in Redshift Before diving into the queries, it’s essential to understand how dates are represented in Redshift.

Replacing Values in a Particular Column in a CSV File using R Introduction R is a popular programming language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.
