![]() ![]() ![]() Missing data are denoted as NA in R, regardless of the type of variable (even in numeric variables). Missing data in our data file, so we will create some. Now let’s consider the various ways that missing data can be handled. Prog, the variable read is sorted in reverse order. This example, the data are sorted on prog, and within each category of ( – ) in front of the variable that we want sorted in reverse order. We can also sort in reverse order by using a minus sign Next, we will sort by read and then by prog. We can also sort the data frame by more than one variable. Later variables will be used to “break the tie”. As we will see in the nextĮxample, if the data frame is sorted on multiple variables, the values of Tied values are left in their original order. ![]() Handled: if there is only one variable to be sorted on, the cases with Without rearranging the original data frame. Sorted data into a new data frame, so that we can do multiple sorting examples For the purposes of example, we will save the newly To use the order function and not the sort function to sort data Rather, only the variable read was sorted, The data in the data frame are not sortedīased on the value of read. See from the output above that the data set is not sorted on read. Let’s start by just using the sort function with the variable read, since we can Id female race ses schtyp prog read write math science socst The comma (in the square brackets) refers to the rows, while an argument after In doing this listing, please note the argument before After reading in the data, we will attach it and then list out theįirst 10 cases. Several examples of sorting data in R using the hsb2 dataįrame. Handled: they can be listed first, last or removed. You also have some options on how missing values will be The variable by which sort you can be a numeric, string orįactor variable. That you can use (called the sort function) to sort your data in either ascending When you think about sorting your data, you would probably firstĬonsider using a function called sort. ![]()
