This is the question bank given by my ma'am


I have no clue of r programming

No worries, Jaden! Let's break down the questions and I'll explain R programming step by step.

1. Basic Data Structures in R

Vector: A sequence of elements of the same type. Example:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 1/30
R

v <- c(1, 2, 3, 4)

List: A collection of elements of different types. Example:

lst <- list(1, "Hello", TRUE)

Matrix: A two-dimensional array where each element has the same type. Example:

mat <- matrix(1:6, nrow=2, ncol=3)

Data Frame: A table-like structure with rows and columns where each column can have different
types. Example:

df <- data.frame(Name=c("Alice", "Bob"), Age=c(25, 30))

Factor: A special type for categorical data. Example:

f <- factor(c("Male", "Female", "Male"))

2. Creating a Data Frame in R

You can create a data frame from vectors like this:

emp_id <- c(1, 2, 3)


emp_name <- c("Rick", "Dan", "Michelle")
start_date <- as.Date(c("2012-01-01", "2013-09-23", "2014-11-15"))
salary <- c(60000, 45000, 75000)

df <- data.frame(emp_id, emp_name, start_date, salary)


print(df)

3. Add and Remove Columns from a Data Frame

Add a column:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 2/30
R

df$new_column <- c(1, 2, 3)

Remove a column:

df$new_column <- NULL

4. Creating a User-defined Function

Here's how you create a function to perform arithmetic operations:

add <- function(x, y) {


return(x + y)
}
result <- add(5, 3)
print(result)

5. Functions Demonstration

`c()`: Combine elements into a vector.

v <- c(1, 2, 3)

`append()`: Add elements to a vector.

v <- append(v, 4)

`merge()`: Merge data frames.

merged_df <- merge(df1, df2, by="common_column")

`cbind()`: Combine columns.

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 3/30
R

df <- cbind(df, new_column)

`rbind()`: Combine rows.

df <- rbind(df, new_row)

`sort()`: Sort a vector.

sorted <- sort(v)

6. Data Frame Creation

emp_id <- c(1:5)


emp_name <- c("Rick", "Dan", "Michelle", "Ryan", "Gary")
start_date <- as.Date(c("2012-01-01", "2013-09-23", "2014-11-15", "2014-03-27"))
salary <- c(60000, 45000, 75000, 84000, 20000)

emp_df <- data.frame(emp_id, emp_name, start_date, salary)

i. Display structure and summary:

str(emp_df)
summary(emp_df)

ii. Extract emp_name and salary:

emp_df[, c("emp_name", "salary")]

iii. Employees with salary <= 60000:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 4/30
R

emp_df[emp_df$salary <= 60000, ]

7. Functions for Handling Data in R

`ls()`: List all objects in the workspace.

ls()

`rm()`: Remove objects from the workspace.

rm(object_name)

`getwd()`: Get the current working directory.

getwd()

`setwd()`: Set the working directory.

setwd("/path/to/directory")

8. Vector Sorting and Sum Calculation

x <- c(1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 88, 23, 44, 12, 56)


sorted_x <- sort(x, decreasing=TRUE)
sum_x <- sum(x[x < 25])
print(sorted_x)
print(sum_x)

These should help you get started with R programming!

Now give me solution for the first question of the question bank

Here’s the solution to the first question of the question bank:

1. List, define, and summarize some basic data structures in R with suitable
examples:

R has several basic data structures, each designed for handling data in a specific way. Here’s a list of
the common ones:

1. Vectors:
Definition: Vectors are the simplest type of data structure in R and are used to store
elements of the same type (numeric, character, logical, etc.).
Example:

numeric_vector <- c(1, 2, 3, 4)


char_vector <- c("apple", "banana", "cherry")
logical_vector <- c(TRUE, FALSE, TRUE)
print(numeric_vector)
print(char_vector)
print(logical_vector)

2. Lists:
Definition: Lists can contain elements of different types (vectors, numbers, strings, even
other lists).
Example:

my_list <- list(1, "hello", TRUE, c(1, 2, 3))


print(my_list)

3. Matrices:
Definition: A matrix is a two-dimensional array where all elements are of the same type
(numeric, character, or logical).
Example:

my_matrix <- matrix(1:9, nrow=3, ncol=3)


print(my_matrix)

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 6/30
4. Data Frames:
Definition: Data frames are similar to matrices, but they can contain different types of data
in each column, like a table in a database or Excel sheet.
Example:

emp_id <- c(1, 2, 3)


emp_name <- c("Alice", "Bob", "Charlie")
salary <- c(50000, 60000, 70000)
my_df <- data.frame(emp_id, emp_name, salary)
print(my_df)

5. Factors:
Definition: Factors are used for categorical data and store both the values and the
corresponding levels.
Example:

gender <- factor(c("Male", "Female", "Male", "Female"))


print(gender)

6. Arrays:
Definition: Arrays are similar to matrices but can have more than two dimensions.
Example:

my_array <- array(1:12, dim=c(3, 2, 2))


print(my_array)

Summary:

Vectors: Store a sequence of elements of the same type.


Lists: Store elements of different types.
Matrices: Two-dimensional arrays with elements of the same type.
Data Frames: Two-dimensional tables with columns of different types.
Factors: Used for storing categorical data.
Arrays: Multi-dimensional matrices.

This should give you a clear understanding of the basic data structures in R!

Now give me solution for the second question of the question bank

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 7/30
Here's the solution for the second question of the question bank:

2. How to create a data frame in R with the help of various data structures?

In R, a data frame is a table-like structure that can hold different types of data in each column. To
create a data frame using various data structures such as vectors, factors, and lists, you can use the
`data.frame()` function.

Example:

We will create a data frame using vectors and factors, which are common data structures in R.

Step-by-Step Solution:

1. Define the vectors for each column:


emp_id: Numeric vector containing employee IDs.
emp_name: Character vector containing employee names.
start_date: Vector of dates (can be converted using `as.Date()` function).
salary: Numeric vector containing salaries.

2. Create the data frame using the `data.frame()` function:

# Defining the vectors


emp_id <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) # Numeric Vector
emp_name <- c("Rick", "Dan", "Michelle", "Ryan", "Gary") # Character Vector
start_date <- as.Date(c("2012-01-01", "2013-09-23", "2014-11-15", "2015-03-27",
"2016-07-12")) # Date Vector
salary <- c(60000, 45000, 75000, 84000, 20000) # Numeric Vector

# Creating the data frame


employee_data <- data.frame(emp_id, emp_name, start_date, salary)

# Displaying the data frame


print(employee_data)

3. Output: The data frame will look like this:

yaml

emp_id emp_name start_date salary


1 1 Rick 2012-01-01 60000
2 2 Dan 2013-09-23 45000
3 3 Michelle 2014-11-15 75000
4 4 Ryan 2015-03-27 84000
5 5 Gary 2016-07-12 20000

Explanation:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 8/30
Vectors (`emp_id`, `emp_name`, `start_date`, `salary`) were used to represent individual columns
in the data frame.
The `data.frame()` function was used to combine these vectors into a table-like structure.

Additional Info:

Factors can be included if you have categorical data. For example, you can create a gender
column:

gender <- factor(c("Male", "Male", "Female", "Male", "Male"))


employee_data <- data.frame(emp_id, emp_name, start_date, salary, gender)
print(employee_data)

This is how you create a data frame in R using different data structures like vectors and factors.

Now give me the answer for 3 rd

Here’s the solution to the third question of the question bank:

3. How to add and remove columns from a data frame in R?

In R, you can easily add or remove columns from a data frame using basic commands.

A. Adding a Column to a Data Frame:

To add a new column, simply assign values to a new column name in the data frame.

Example:

# Creating a data frame


emp_id <- c(1, 2, 3)
emp_name <- c("Rick", "Dan", "Michelle")
salary <- c(60000, 45000, 75000)
df <- data.frame(emp_id, emp_name, salary)

# Adding a new column 'department'


df$department <- c("IT", "HR", "Finance")

# Display the updated data frame


print(df)

Output:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 9/30
emp_id emp_name salary department
1 1 Rick 60000 IT
2 2 Dan 45000 HR
3 3 Michelle 75000 Finance

In this example, a new column called 'department' is added with values "IT", "HR", and "Finance".

B. Removing a Column from a Data Frame:

To remove a column from a data frame, you can assign it `NULL`.

Example:

# Removing the 'department' column


df$department <- NULL

# Display the updated data frame


print(df)

Output:

emp_id emp_name salary


1 1 Rick 60000
2 2 Dan 45000
3 3 Michelle 75000

In this example, the 'department' column has been removed from the data frame.

Alternative Method to Add Columns:

You can also use the `cbind()` function to add a column.

# Adding a new column using cbind()


new_column <- c("Manager", "Engineer", "Analyst")
df <- cbind(df, role = new_column)

# Display the updated data frame


print(df)

Output:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 10/30
emp_id emp_name salary role
1 1 Rick 60000 Manager
2 2 Dan 45000 Engineer
3 3 Michelle 75000 Analyst

Summary:

To Add a Column: Use `df$new_column <- vector`.


To Remove a Column: Use `df$column <- NULL`.
Alternative: You can also use `cbind()` to add columns.

This covers how to add and remove columns in R!

Now answer 4 th

Here’s the solution for the fourth question of the question bank:

4. How to create a user-defined function in R? Demonstrate arithmetic operations.

In R, you can create user-defined functions using the `function()` keyword. The general syntax is:

my_function <- function(arg1, arg2, ...) {


# Function body
# Return result
}

Example of User-defined Function for Arithmetic Operations:

Let’s create a function that performs basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication,
division) on two numbers.

Step-by-Step Solution:

1. Define the function: The function takes two arguments, `a` and `b`, and performs addition,
subtraction, multiplication, and division.

2. Function Implementation:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 11/30
R

arithmetic_operations <- function(a, b) {


# Addition
addition <- a + b

# Subtraction
subtraction <- a - b

# Multiplication
multiplication <- a * b

# Division
if (b != 0) {
division <- a / b
} else {
division <- "Division by zero not allowed"
}

# Returning the results as a list


return(list(Addition = addition, Subtraction = subtraction, Multiplication =
multiplication, Division = division))
}

3. Call the function with two numbers:

result <- arithmetic_operations(10, 5)


print(result)

4. Output:

bash

$Addition
[1] 15

$Subtraction
[1] 5

$Multiplication
[1] 50

$Division
[1] 2

Explanation:

Addition: `a + b`
Subtraction: `a - b`
Multiplication: `a * b`
Division: `a / b` (handles the case where division by zero is not allowed).

You can modify the function to include more operations or handle edge cases as needed.

Example with Different Numbers:


Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 12/30
R

result <- arithmetic_operations(12, 0)


print(result)

Output:

bash

$Addition
[1] 12

$Subtraction
[1] 12

$Multiplication
[1] 0

$Division
[1] "Division by zero not allowed"

Summary:

User-defined functions are created using `function()`.


You can define functions for performing arithmetic operations and return the results as a list.

Now answer 5 th

Here’s the solution for the fifth question of the question bank:

5. Demonstrate `c()`, `append()`, `merge()`, `cbind()`, `rbind()`, and `sort()`


functions with suitable examples:

These functions in R are used for different operations like creating vectors, appending elements,
merging data frames, and binding columns or rows. Let's look at each of them with examples.

1. `c()` – Combine Values into a Vector or List

The `c()` function is used to combine values into a vector or list.

Example:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 13/30
R

# Using c() to create a numeric vector


num_vector <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
print(num_vector)

# Using c() to create a character vector


char_vector <- c("apple", "banana", "cherry")
print(char_vector)

Output:

csharp

[1] 1 2 3 4 5
[1] "apple" "banana" "cherry"

2. `append()` – Append Elements to a Vector

The `append()` function adds elements to the end or specific index of a vector.

Example:

# Original vector
x <- c(1, 2, 3)

# Appending elements to the vector


new_vector <- append(x, c(4, 5))
print(new_vector)

# Appending at a specific position


new_vector <- append(x, c(4, 5), after = 1)
print(new_vector)

Output:

csharp

[1] 1 2 3 4 5
[1] 1 4 5 2 3

3. `merge()` – Merge Two Data Frames

The `merge()` function is used to merge two data frames by common columns or row names.

Example:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 14/30
R

# Creating two data frames


df1 <- data.frame(ID = 1:3, Name = c("John", "Jane", "Tom"))
df2 <- data.frame(ID = 2:4, Age = c(25, 30, 22))

# Merging by 'ID'
merged_df <- merge(df1, df2, by = "ID")
print(merged_df)

Output:

ID Name Age
1 2 Jane 25
2 3 Tom 30

4. `cbind()` – Column Bind

The `cbind()` function combines vectors, matrices, or data frames by binding them as columns.

Example:

# Creating two vectors


a <- c(1, 2, 3)
b <- c("A", "B", "C")

# Using cbind to bind them as columns


cb <- cbind(a, b)
print(cb)

Output:

csharp

a b
[1,] "1" "A"
[2,] "2" "B"
[3,] "3" "C"

5. `rbind()` – Row Bind

The `rbind()` function binds vectors, matrices, or data frames by binding them as rows.

Example:

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 15/30
R

# Creating two vectors


x <- c(1, 2, 3)
y <- c(4, 5, 6)

# Using rbind to bind them as rows


rb <- rbind(x, y)
print(rb)

Output:

css

[,1] [,2] [,3]


x 1 2 3
y 4 5 6

6. `sort()` – Sorting a Vector

The `sort()` function sorts the elements of a vector in ascending or descending order.

Example:

# Creating a numeric vector


num_vec <- c(9, 2, 5, 7, 1)

# Sorting in ascending order


sorted_vec <- sort(num_vec)
print(sorted_vec)

# Sorting in descending order


sorted_vec_desc <- sort(num_vec, decreasing = TRUE)
print(sorted_vec_desc)

Output:

csharp

[1] 1 2 5 7 9
[1] 9 7 5 2 1

Summary of Functions:

`c()`:Combines values into a vector.


`append()`: Adds elements to a vector at a specific position.
`merge()`: Merges two data frames based on common columns.

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 16/30
`cbind()`: Binds columns of data frames, matrices, or vectors.
`rbind()`: Binds rows of data frames, matrices, or vectors.
`sort()`: Sorts a vector in ascending or descending order.

Now answer 7 th question of the qb

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 19/30
Here’s the solution for the seventh question of the question bank:

7. List and explain various functions that allow users to handle data in R
workspace with appropriate examples.

In R, there are several functions that help users manage and handle data in the workspace. These
functions allow users to create, view, modify, save, and delete objects, as well as manage the
environment. Below are some important functions with examples:

1. `ls()` – List Objects in the Workspace

The `ls()` function lists all the objects (variables, data frames, vectors, etc.) that exist in the
current R workspace.

Example:

x <- 10
y <- c(1, 2, 3)
z <- "Hello, R!"

# List objects in the workspace


ls()

Output:

csharp

[1] "x" "y" "z"

2. `rm()` – Remove Objects from the Workspace

The `rm()` function is used to remove specific objects from the R workspace.

Example:

# Remove object 'x'


rm(x)

# Check if 'x' still exists


ls()

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 20/30
Output:

csharp

[1] "y" "z"

3. `getwd()` and `setwd()` – Get and Set Working Directory

`getwd()` returns the current working directory.


`setwd()` sets a new working directory.

Example:

# Get current working directory


getwd()

# Set a new working directory


setwd("C:/Users/MyDocuments")

# Verify the change


getwd()

Output (example):

arduino

"C:/Users/MyDocuments"

4. `save()` and `load()` – Save and Load Workspace Objects

The `save()` function saves specified objects to a file.


The `load()` function loads R objects from a file back into the workspace.

Example:

# Save objects 'y' and 'z' to a file


save(y, z, file = "my_data.RData")

# Remove objects from workspace


rm(y, z)

# Load the objects back into the workspace


load("my_data.RData")

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 21/30
# Check if 'y' and 'z' exist again
ls()

Output:

csharp

[1] "y" "z"

5. `save.image()` – Save the Entire Workspace

The `save.image()` function saves the entire workspace to an `.RData` file.

Example:

# Save entire workspace to a file


save.image(file = "my_workspace.RData")

6. `read.csv()` and `write.csv()` – Reading and Writing CSV Files

`read.csv()` reads a CSV file into a data frame.


`write.csv()` writes a data frame to a CSV file.

Example:

# Read data from a CSV file


my_data <- read.csv("example.csv")
print(my_data)

# Write a data frame to a CSV file

Now answer 8 th question of the question Bank.

Here’s the solution for the eighth question of the question bank:

8. Given the vector `x = c(1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 88, 23, 44, 12, 56)`, sort the vector in
decreasing order and display the sum of elements less than 25 using suitable
functions.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Step 1: Sort the Vector in Decreasing Order

You can use the `sort()` function with the argument `decreasing = TRUE` to sort the vector in
descending order.

Example:

# Define the vector


x <- c(1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 88, 23, 44, 12, 56)

# Sort the vector in decreasing order

Printed using Save ChatGPT as PDF, powered by PDFCrowd HTML to PDF API. 24/30
sorted_x <- sort(x, decreasing = TRUE)
print(sorted_x)

Output:

csharp

[1] 88 56 44 23 12 9 7 6 5 3 1

Step 2: Find Elements Less Than 25

You can use logical indexing to filter out elements that are less than 25.

Example:

# Extract elements less than 25


less_than_25 <- x[x < 25]
print(less_than_25)

Output:

csharp

[1] 1 3 5 6 7 9 12

Step 3: Calculate the Sum of Elements Less Than 25

You can use the `sum()` function to calculate the sum of these elements.

Example:

# Calculate the sum of elements less than 25


sum_less_than_25 <- sum(less_than_25)
print(sum_less_than_25)

Output:

csharp

[1] 43

Full Code:

# Define the vector


x <- c(1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 88, 23, 44, 12, 56)

# Step 1: Sort the vector in decreasing order


sorted_x <- sort(x, decreasing = TRUE)
print(sorted_x)

# Step 2: Extract elements less than 25


less_than_25 <- x[x < 25]
print(less_than_25)

# Step 3: Calculate the sum of elements less than 25


sum_less_than_25 <- sum(less_than_25)
print(sum_less_than_25)

Output:

csharp

# Sorted Vector:
[1] 88 56 44 23 12 9 7 6 5 3 1

# Elements Less than 25:


[1] 1 3 5 6 7 9 12

# Sum of Elements Less than 25:


[1] 43

Summary:

Sort the vector in decreasing order using `sort()`.


Filter elements less than 25 using logical indexing (`x[x < 25]`).
Sum the filtered elements using `sum()`.

9. Explain the use of functions `c()`, `append()`, `merge()`, `cbind()`, `rbind()`, and
`sort()` in R with suitable examples.

1. `c()` – Combine or Concatenate Values

The `c()` function is used to combine values into a vector or list. It can concatenate numbers,
characters, or other objects.

Example:

# Combine numbers into a vector


x <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
print(x)

# Combine characters into a vector


y <- c("apple", "banana", "cherry")
print(y)

Output:

csharp

[1] 1 2 3 4 5
[1] "apple" "banana" "cherry"

2. `append()` – Add Elements to a Vector

The `append()` function adds elements to the end of a vector or at a specified position.

Example:

# Original vector
x <- c(1, 2, 3)

# Append 4 and 5 at the end


x <- append(x, c(4, 5))
print(x)

# Append 0 at the start (position 1)


x <- append(x, 0, after = 0)
print(x)

Output:

csharp

[1] 1 2 3 4 5
[1] 0 1 2 3 4 5

3. `merge()` – Merge Data Frames

The `merge()` function is used to combine two data frames based on a common column (like SQL
joins).

Example:

# Create two data frames


df1 <- data.frame(id = c(1, 2, 3), name = c("Alice", "Bob", "Charlie"))
df2 <- data.frame(id = c(2, 3, 4), salary = c(5000, 6000, 7000))

# Merge the data frames on 'id'


merged_df <- merge(df1, df2, by = "id")
print(merged_df)

Output:

yaml

id name salary
1 2 Bob 5000
2 3 Charlie 6000

4. `cbind()` – Column Bind

The `cbind()` function is used to combine vectors or data frames by adding them as columns.

Example:

# Create two vectors


x <- c(1, 2, 3)
y <- c(4, 5, 6)

# Combine the vectors column-wise


combined <- cbind(x, y)
print(combined)

Output:

csharp

x y
[1,] 1 4
[2,] 2 5
[3,] 3 6

5. `rbind()` – Row Bind

The `rbind()` function is used to combine vectors or data frames by adding them as rows.

Example:

# Create two vectors


x <- c(1, 2, 3)
y <- c(4, 5, 6)

# Combine the vectors row-wise


combined <- rbind(x, y)
print(combined)

Output:

css

[,1] [,2] [,3]


x 1 2 3
y 4 5 6

6. `sort()` – Sort Values

The `sort()` function is used to sort a vector in increasing or decreasing order.

Example:

# Create a vector
x <- c(5, 1, 3, 9, 2)

# Sort in increasing order


sorted_x <- sort(x)
print(sorted_x)

# Sort in decreasing order


sorted_x_desc <- sort(x, decreasing = TRUE)
print(sorted_x_desc)

[1] 1 2 3 5 9
[1] 9 5 3 2 1

Summary of Functions:

`c()`:Combines values into a vector.


`append()`: Adds elements to a vector.
`merge()`: Merges two data frames by a common column.
`cbind()`: Combines objects column-wise.
`rbind()`: Combines objects row-wise.
`sort()`: Sorts elements in increasing or decreasing order.

These functions are fundamental in data manipulation and transformation in R.
