在数据框架中按组计算唯一/不同的值

假设我有以下数据框架:

> myvec
name order_no
1    Amy       12
2   Jack       14
3   Jack       16
4   Dave       11
5    Amy       12
6   Jack       16
7    Tom       19
8  Larry       22
9    Tom       19
10  Dave       11
11  Jack       17
12   Tom       20
13   Amy       23
14  Jack       16

我想计算每个 name的不同 order_no值的数目。它应该产生以下结果:

name    number_of_distinct_orders
Amy     2
Jack    3
Dave    1
Tom     2
Larry   1

我该怎么做?

This should do the trick:

ddply(myvec,~name,summarise,number_of_distinct_orders=length(unique(order_no)))

This requires package plyr.

This would also work but is less eloquent than the plyr solution:

x <- sapply(split(myvec, myvec$name),  function(x) length(unique(x[, 2])))
data.frame(names=names(x), number_of_distinct_orders=x, row.names = NULL)

This is a simple solution with the function aggregate:

aggregate(order_no ~ name, myvec, function(x) length(unique(x)))

You can just use the built-in R functions tapply with length

tapply(myvec$order_no, myvec$name, FUN = function(x) length(unique(x)))

A data.table approach

library(data.table)
DT <- data.table(myvec)


DT[, .(number_of_distinct_orders = length(unique(order_no))), by = name]

data.table v >= 1.9.5 has a built in uniqueN function now

DT[, .(number_of_distinct_orders = uniqueN(order_no)), by = name]

In dplyr you may use n_distinct to "count the number of unique values":

library(dplyr)
myvec %>%
group_by(name) %>%
summarise(n_distinct(order_no))

Here is a solution with sqldf

library("sqldf")


myvec <- read.table(header=TRUE, text=
"   name order_no
1    Amy       12
2   Jack       14
3   Jack       16
4   Dave       11
5    Amy       12
6   Jack       16
7    Tom       19
8  Larry       22
9    Tom       19
10  Dave       11
11  Jack       17
12   Tom       20
13   Amy       23
14  Jack       16")
sqldf("SELECT name,COUNT(distinct(order_no)) as number_of_distinct_orders FROM myvec GROUP BY name")
# > sqldf("SELECT name,COUNT(distinct(order_no)) as number_of_distinct_orders FROM myvec GROUP BY name")
#    name number_of_distinct_orders
# 1   Amy                         2
# 2  Dave                         1
# 3  Jack                         3
# 4 Larry                         1
# 5   Tom                         2

Using table :

library(magrittr)
myvec %>% unique %>% '['(1) %>% table %>% as.data.frame %>%
setNames(c("name","number_of_distinct_orders"))


#    name number_of_distinct_orders
# 1   Amy                         2
# 2  Dave                         1
# 3  Jack                         3
# 4 Larry                         1
# 5   Tom                         2
my.1 <- table(myvec)


my.1[my.1 != 0] <- 1


rowSums(my.1)

Here is a benchmark of @David Arenburg's solution there as well as a recap of some solutions posted here (@mnel, @Sven Hohenstein, @Henrik):

library(dplyr)
library(data.table)
library(microbenchmark)
library(tidyr)
library(ggplot2)


df <- mtcars
DT <- as.data.table(df)
DT_32k <- rbindlist(replicate(1e3, mtcars, simplify = FALSE))
df_32k <- as.data.frame(DT_32k)
DT_32M <- rbindlist(replicate(1e6, mtcars, simplify = FALSE))
df_32M <- as.data.frame(DT_32M)
bench <- microbenchmark(
base_32 = aggregate(hp ~ cyl, df, function(x) length(unique(x))),
base_32k = aggregate(hp ~ cyl, df_32k, function(x) length(unique(x))),
base_32M = aggregate(hp ~ cyl, df_32M, function(x) length(unique(x))),
dplyr_32 = summarise(group_by(df, cyl), count = n_distinct(hp)),
dplyr_32k = summarise(group_by(df_32k, cyl), count = n_distinct(hp)),
dplyr_32M = summarise(group_by(df_32M, cyl), count = n_distinct(hp)),
data.table_32 = DT[, .(count = uniqueN(hp)), by = cyl],
data.table_32k = DT_32k[, .(count = uniqueN(hp)), by = cyl],
data.table_32M = DT_32M[, .(count = uniqueN(hp)), by = cyl],
times = 10
)

Results:

Few years old .. although had similar requirement and ended up writing my own solution. Applying here:

 x<-data.frame(
 

"Name"=c("Amy","Jack","Jack","Dave","Amy","Jack","Tom","Larry","Tom","Dave","Jack","Tom","Amy","Jack"),
"OrderNo"=c(12,14,16,11,12,16,19,22,19,11,17,20,23,16)
)


table(sub("~.*","",unique(paste(x$Name,x$OrderNo,sep="~",collapse=NULL))))


  Amy  Dave  Jack Larry   Tom
2     1     3     1     2

Using fNdistinct from collapse

library(collapse)
library(magrittr)
myvec %>%
fgroup_by(name) %>%
fsummarise(number_of_distinct_orders = fNdistinct(order_no))
#   name number_of_distinct_orders
#1   Amy                         2
#2  Dave                         1
#3  Jack                         3
#4 Larry                         1
#5   Tom                         2
