R programming

What is R programming language?

R is a programming language and software environment for

  • Statistical analysis
  • Graphics representation
  • Reporting

Creators of R

Where was it created?

It was cretaed at University of Auckland in Auckland(New zealand) and is currently developed by the R development core team.

Special

  1. The core of R is an interpreted computer language which allows

    • Branching
    • Looping
    • Modular programming using functions
  2. R allows integration with the procedures written in the C, C++, .Net, Python or FORTRAN languages for efficiency.

Evolution

R made it first appearance in 1993.

Since mid-1997 there has been a core group(The R core team) who can modify the R source code archive.

Features

  • R is well developed, simple and effective programming language.
  • R has an effective data handling and storage facility.
  • R provides a large , coherent and integrated collection of tools for data analysis.
  • R provides graphical facilities for data analysis and display either directly at the computer or printing at the papers.
  • R provides a suite of operators for calculations on arrays, lists, vectors and matrices.

Popular and widely used

  • R is world's most widely used statistical programming language.
  • It is #1 choice of data scientists.
  • It is supported by a vibrant an

Data types

Variables are nothing but reserved memory locations to store values.

There are many types of R-Objects. The frequently used ones are

  • Arrays
  • Lists
  • Matrices
  • Vectors
  • Factors
  • Data frames

The simplest of these objects is vector object and there are six data types of these atomic vectors also termed as six classes of vectors.

Lists

A list is an R-Object which can contain many different types elements inside it like vectors, functions and even another list inside it.

# {
# 	'created_on' : '3 May 2017', 
# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'using lists in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',
# }

#Google's naming convention for identifiers
integers.list = list(1,2,5,7,8,-6,4,8,34,67)	

random.list = list("Rishikesh", 24, 1992.67, c("C", "Python", "R", "Go"))

print(integers.list)

Matrices

A matrix is defined as a two dimensional data set.

# {
# 	'created_on' : '3 May 2017', 
# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'using matrices in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',

print(integers.matrix)

evens.matrix = matrix( c(1,2,3,5,6,4,9,7,8), nrow=3, ncol=3, byrow=FALSE)
print(evens.matrix)

Arrays

While matrices are confined to 2 dimensions, arrays can be of any number of dimensions. array() function takes dim attribute which creates the required number of dimensions.

Factors

Factors are R-Objetcts which are created using a vector. It stores the vector along with the distinct values of elements in the vector as labels.

The labels are always character irrespective of whether it is numeric or charater or boolean etc. in the input vector.

Factors are useful in statistical modeling.

factors are created using factor() function.

nlevels() function gives the number of labels in factor.

# {
# 	'created_on' : '4 May 2017', 
# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'using factors in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',

integers.vector =  c(1, 4, 2, 7, 6, 3, 2, 5, 7, 5, 1)

integers.factor = factor( integers.vector )

cities.factor = factor( c("Bangalore", "Alore", "Cobispur","Alore", "Alpur", "Bangalore"))

Data frames

Data frames are tabular data objects.

Unlike a matrix in data frame, each column can contain different modes of data.

It is a list of vectors of equal length.

Data frames are created using the data.frame() function.

# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'using data frames in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',

Miscellaneous operators

These operators are used for specific purpose and not for mathematical or logical manipulations.

Symbol Description
: Colon operator. This operator is used to create a
sequence of numbers in vector
%in% This operator is used to identify if an element
belongs to a vector
%*% This operator is used to multiply a matrix with
its transpose

Decision making (if-else, switch)

if-else constructs and switch statements allow us to perform specific actions based on some particular conditions.

if-else example
# {
# 	'created_on' : '5 May 2017', 
# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'if-else statement in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',
# }

if(TRUE){
	cat("This is great opportunity to learn programming with curiosity.\n")
}else{
	cat("Never think Bad.")
}

if(10<67){
	cat("10 is less than 67.\n")
}

percent <- 78
if(percent>=75 && percent<=80){
	cat("78% indicates MERIT result.\n")
}

#My thought(Acc. to C/C++ experience)
if(67){
	cat("Positive integer is evaluated as TRUE if used in conditional expression.\n")
}else{
	cat("Enjoy programming.")
}

# This is great opportunity to learn programming with curiosity.
# 10 is less than 67.
# 78% indicates MERIT result.
# Positive integer is evaluated as TRUE if used in conditional expression.
if-else...if-else example
# {
# 	'created_on' : '5 May 2017', 
# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'if-else...if_else statement in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',
# }

country <- "India"
if(country == "Pak"){
	cat("I am from Pak")
}else if(country == "Sri lanka"){
	cat("I am from Sri lanka")
}else if(country == "India"){
	cat("I am from India\n")
}else{
	cat("I am from USA")
}

#Finding maximum among 3 numbers
a <- 23
46 -> b 
c = 55

if(a>b){ #a>b
	if(a>c){
		cat(a, " is greater among ",b," and ",c)
	}else{
		cat(c, " is greater among ",a," and ",b)
	}
}else{
	if(b>c){
		cat(b, " is greater among ",a," and ",c)
	}else{
		cat(c, " is greater among ",a," and ",b)
	}
}

cat("\n")

# I am from India
# 55  is greater among  23  and  46

Switch cases

Switch cases allow us to perform specific set of actions under a specific case if any case matching found based on the following conditions.

  • If named cases are not available then switch expression is matched with case indexes.

  • If named cases are available then switch epression is matched with the name of cases and the statement(s) of that particular case executes.

  • If the value of switch expression is not a character string then it is coerced to integer.

  • If expression is character string then that string is matched(exactly) to the name of elements.

i <- 1
while(i <= 10) {
	j = 1
	while(j <= 10) {
		if(i == j){
			j = j + 1 #It is required

Function

A function is defined as a self contained block of statements that performs a coherent task of some kind.

Visit here to see most widely used built-in R functions.

The return value of a function is the last expression in the function body to be evaluated.

Basic syntax to create a function
	function_name <- fucntion([arg1[, arg2[, arg3[,...]]]){
		#Statement 1
		#...
		#Statement N
	}

eg.

	addition <- function(a, b){		#Parameter list can be empty
		a + b
	}

	s = addition(12, 3)				#Calling function
	print(s)

or more clearly look at the following.

> addition <- function(a, b){
+ a + b
+ }
> 
> s = addition(12, 3)#Calling function
> print(s)
[1] 15

Lazy evalution

Lazy evaluation refers to the process of evaluation of function arguments only when they are needed by the function body.

# 	'created_on' : 6 May 2017', 
# 	'aim_of_rscript' : 'Lazy evaluation in R',
# 	'coded_by' : 'Rishikesh Agrawani',
# }

#Example 1
GetSquareCubeSum <- function(a, b) {
	# b is not being used inside function body so no problem if we call the
	# function with 1 parameter
	return(a^2 + 3^3) 
}

cat(GetSquareCubeSum(4),"\n\n")		#27+16 => 43
cat(GetSquareCubeSum(4,7), "\n\n")	#27+16 => 43


#Example 2
SquaredSum <- function(a, b) {
	# Unlike above function, it is necessary to pass 2 values to this function
	return(a^2 + b^2)
}

cat(SquaredSum( 4, 8 ),"\n\n")  	#16+64 = 80
cat(SquaredSum( 4 ))	 		#Error

six classes of vectors
numeric
integer
complex
character
logical
raw

In R programming, the very basic data types are the R-Objects called vectors .

I am following the Google's naming convention for R. Visit here to check it.

Quick list of useful R packages can be found here

Download RStudio from here

print() and cat() functions

R is dymanically typed language.

ls() function is used to list the variables currently available in the workspace.

ls(pattern="apple")  #variables with pattern => apple

ls(all.name=TRUE)	 #all variables including the one which starts with dot(.)

rm() function is used to delete the variable.

rm( apple )  #To delete varibale named apple

rm( list = ls())  #To delete all the variables 

rm( list = ls(all.name=TURE)) # To delete all the variables including the one which starts with dot(.)

Arithmetic operators ( +, -, *, %/%, %%, ^ )

Logical operators ( &&, ||, |, &, ! )

Relational operators ( <, <=, >, >=, ==, != )

Assignment operators ( ->, ->>, <-, <<-, = )

Miscellaneous operators ( :, %in%, %*% )

LETTERS[1:4] => [1] "A" "B" "C" "D"

length(integers.arr)

length(integers.vect)

i = i + 1 #Ok

i += 1 #Incorrect

break keyword

next keyword

for loop(similar to as JS syntax), while loop, repeat loop

function definition (similar to JS syntax)

switch supports 1+0i(Coerced to 1, the index of first case) as case value but not 5+4i (check it).
