Functions |
| |
Fast Statistical Functions
|
Fast (grouped and weighted) statistical functions for vector, matrix, data frame and grouped data frames (class 'grouped_df', dplyr compatible). |
|
fsum, fprod, fmean, fmedian, fmode, fvar, fsd, fmin, fmax, fnth, ffirst, flast, fNobs, fNdistinct |
| |
|
|
Fast Grouping and Ordering
|
Fast (ordered) groupings from vectors, data frames, lists. 'GRP' objects are extremely efficient inputs for programming with collapse's fast functions. fgroup_by can attach them to a data frame, for fast dplyr-style grouped computations. In addition fast radix-sort based ordering, unique values/rows, factor generation, vector grouping, interactions, generalized run-length type grouping and grouping of time-sequences.

|
|
Fast Data Manipulation
|
Fast and flexible select, subset, transform, sort/reorder and rename data, including modifying/adding columns by reference, automated replacing/adding with lists of transformed columns, and computing columns saved as a new dataset. In addition a set of (standard evaluation) functions for fast selecting, replacing or adding data frame columns, including shortcuts to select and replace variables by data type.

Quick Data Conversion
|
Quick conversions: data.frame <> data.table <> tibble | matrix <> list, data.frame, data.table (row- or column- wise), tibble | array > matrix, data.frame, data.table, tibble | list > data.frame, data.table, tibble | vector > factor, matrix, data.frame, data.table, tibble; and converting factors / all factor columns. |
|

|
Advanced Data Aggregation
|
| Fast and easy (weighted and parallelized) aggregation of multi-type data, with (multiple) functions applied to numeric and categorical columns. Also supports fully customized aggregation tasks mapping functions to columns. |

Fast row- and column- arithmetic and (object preserving) apply functionality for matrices and data frames. Fast (grouped) replacing and sweeping of statistics and (grouped and weighted) scaling / standardizing, (higher-dimensional) within- and between-transformations (i.e. centering and averaging), linear prediction and partialling out. Additional methods for grouped_df (dplyr) and pseries, pdata.frame (plm). |
