coalesce | R Documentation |
Given a set of vectors, coalesce()
finds the first non-missing value at
each position. It's inspired by the SQL COALESCE
function which does the
same thing for SQL NULL
s.
coalesce(..., .ptype = NULL, .size = NULL)
... |
One or more vectors. |
.ptype |
The type to cast the vectors in |
.size |
The size to recycle the vectors in |
# Use a single value to replace all missing values x <- sample(c(1:5, NA, NA, NA)) coalesce(x, 0L) # The equivalent to a missing value in a list is NULL coalesce(list(1, 2, NULL), list(NA)) # Or generate a complete vector from partially missing pieces y <- c(1, 2, NA, NA, 5) z <- c(NA, NA, 3, 4, 5) coalesce(y, z) # Supply lists by splicing them into dots: vecs <- list( c(1, 2, NA, NA, 5), c(NA, NA, 3, 4, 5) ) coalesce(!!!vecs)
