I'm grouping a data frame by the column "month", and then summarising the "users" column.
Using this code:
Count_Users_By_Month <- Users_By_Month %>% group_by(month) %>%
summarise(Users = length(unique(users)))
I get this, that i'm 100% sure it's correct:
month Users
1 Diciembre 4916
2 Noviembre 3527
Question 1: How to add a column showing the variation in "Diciembre" based on "Noviembre"?(In percentage %).
Need to create a colum for the variation month to month
The formula (pseudocode) is this one:
(DiciembreUsers-NoviembreUsers)/NoviembreUsers
** Of course the value for Noviembre would be clear cause there is no data from previous month (October).
I tried this code to do this, but get an error:
Count_Users_By_Month <- Users_By_Month %>% group_by(month) %>%
summarise(Users = length(unique(users))) %>%
mutate(Variacion = (Count_Users_By_Month[1,2]-Count_Users_By_Month[2,2])/Count_Users_By_Month[2,2])
Error: not compatible with STRSXP
**Last edit:
Problem solved, Thanks @Khasha. See comments:
Changed "lag" for "lead".... it worked. Just added "lead" to the divison part to get the formula right.
mutate(variation=(Users-lead(Users))/lead(Users))
