bin_integer_into_integer: Bin an integer/numeric variable

In g-antonello/gautils2: Wrapper of my functions to wrangle mostly microbiome data

Bin an integer/numeric variable

Description

This function bins decimal numbers to their lower or upper values. This is particularly useful for semi-quantitative modelling, in case there is a preference for a set of values.

Usage

bin_integer_into_integer(x, multiples, include.lowest = FALSE)

Arguments

x	A 'numeric' vector
multiples	An 'integer' or 'numeric' vector to bin 'x' by. For example, multiples = 2 will return all values approximated to 0,2,4,6, ...
include.lowest	Do you want to include upper or lower values in the bin? eg: Take 'multiples = 5', the ranges will be [0,5), [5,10), ..., if FALSE, (0,5], (5,10], ...

Value

A integer vector

Examples

data(mtcars)
bin_integer_into_integer(mtcars$mpg, multiples = 10, include_highest= TRUE)
bin_integer_into_integer(mtcars$mpg, multiples = 5, include_highest= FALSE)
