map_values: Replace specified values with new values, in a vector or...

In Geographie-cites/toyspace: bla bla bla

Description

Item in x that match items from will be replaced by items in to, matched by position. For example, items in x that match the first element in from will be replaced by the first element of to.

Usage

map_values(x, from, to, warn_missing = TRUE)

Arguments

x	the factor or vector to modify
from	a vector of the items to replace
to	a vector of replacement values
warn_missing	print a message if any of the old values are not actually present in x

Details

If x is a factor, the matching levels of the factor will be replaced with the new values. The related revalue function works only on character vectors and factors, but this function works on vectors of any type and factors.

Examples

x <- c("a", "b", "c")
map_values(x, c("a", "c"), c("A", "C"))

# Works on factors
y <- factor(c("a", "b", "c", "a"))
map_values(y, c("a", "c"), c("A", "C"))

# Works on numeric vectors
z <- c(1, 4, 5, 9)
map_values(z, from = c(1, 5, 9), to = c(10, 50, 90))
