我有的:
我有一个“主”数据框,其中包含以下列:
userid, condition
由于有四个实验条件,我也有四个携带答案信息的数据框,以下列:
userid, condition, answer1, answer2
现在,我想加入这些,因此用户 ID、条件及其对这些条件的答案的所有组合都被合并了。每个条件只应在每行的相应列中具有正确答案。
简短、独立的示例:
master = data.frame(userid=c("foo","foo","foo","foo","bar","bar","bar","bar"), condition=c("A","B","C","D","A","B","C","D"))
cond_a = data.frame(userid=c("foo","bar"), condition="A", answer1=c("1","1"), answer2=c("2","2"))
cond_b = data.frame(userid=c("foo","bar"), condition="B", answer1=c("3","3"), answer2=c("4","4"))
cond_c = data.frame(userid=c("foo","bar"), condition="C", answer1=c("5","5"), answer2=c("6","6"))
cond_d = data.frame(userid=c("foo","bar"), condition="D", answer1=c("7","7"), answer2=c("8","8"))
如何将所有条件合并到主表中,使主表如下所示?
userid condition answer1 answer2
1 bar A 1 2
2 bar B 3 4
3 bar C 5 6
4 bar D 7 8
5 foo A 1 2
6 foo B 3 4
7 foo C 5 6
8 foo D 7 8
我尝试了以下方法:
temp = merge(master, cond_a, all.x=TRUE)
这给了我:
userid condition answer1 answer2
1 bar A 1 2
2 bar B <NA> <NA>
3 bar C <NA> <NA>
4 bar D <NA> <NA>
5 foo A 1 2
6 foo B <NA> <NA>
7 foo C <NA> <NA>
8 foo D <NA> <NA>
但只要我这样做……</p>
merge(temp, cond_b, all.x=TRUE)
条件没有值B
。怎么来的?
userid condition answer1 answer2
1 bar A 1 2
2 bar B <NA> <NA>
3 bar C <NA> <NA>
4 bar D <NA> <NA>
5 foo A 1 2
6 foo B <NA> <NA>
7 foo C <NA> <NA>
8 foo D <NA> <NA>
