1 R and RStudio
R's open-source nature, extensive statistical capabilities, powerful data visualisation tools, and a vibrant
community make it a compelling choice for data scientists, statisticians, and researchers.
• R is a programming language for statistical computing and graphics.
• R is the successor language of the ‘S’ language.
• The name of this language ‘R’ has been derived from the first alphabet of its developers’ names,
viz., Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka.
• R provides many graphical and statistical tools such as linear, and nonlinear modelling,
classification, classical statistical tests, and clustering etc.
• It runs on various UNIX platforms and other systems including Windows and MacOS.
• R offers integrated software facilities including operators for calculations, intermediate tools
for data manipulation, data visualisation, data storage and handling facilities.
• R is a fully developed language. It consists of various loops, conditionals, and other output-
input functions. For this reason, it is popularly known as ‘R Environment.’

RStudio
• RStudio is an integrated development environment (IDE).
• It is particularly designed to work with the R programming language.
• RStudio can be broadly divided into 4 panes:

clustering, and predictive modelling.
3. Data Visualisation:
➢ High-Quality Graphics: Create stunning visualisations with packages like ggplot2, lattice,
and plotly.
➢ Customisation: Tailor plots to specific needs, including interactive visualisations.
4. Flexibility and Extensibility:
➢ Package Ecosystem: A vast collection of packages (over 18,000) for various statistical and
data analysis tasks.
➢ Custom Function Creation: Develop custom functions to tailor the analysis to specific
requirements.
5. Reproducible Research:
➢ Version Control: Track changes and ensure reproducibility.
➢ R Markdown: Create dynamic documents combining code, output, and narrative text.
6. Platform Independence:
➢ Cross-Platform Compatibility: Runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
7. Strong Community Support:
➢ Active Forums and Communities: Online resources for help and collaboration.
➢ Tutorials and Documentation: Extensive documentation and tutorials available.
8. Integration with Other Tools:
➢ Interoperability: Seamlessly integrates with other tools like Python, SQL, and Hadoop.
9. Data Wrangling and Manipulation:
➢ Powerful Data Manipulation: Efficiently clean, transform, and reshape data with
packages like dplyr and tidyr.
10. Big Data Analysis:
➢ Scalability: Handles large datasets with packages like sparklyr and bigr.

3.10 File R10(Apply Function: A Versatile Tool for Data Manipulation)

The apply family of functions in R provides efficient ways to apply a function to elements of an array
or list. These functions can significantly streamline your data analysis tasks.

Here are the primary functions in the apply family:

3.10.1 apply ()
Purpose: Applies a function to the margins of an array.
Syntax: apply(X, MARGIN, FUN, ...)

13
 • X: The array to which the function is applied.
• MARGIN: A vector specifying the margins (rows, columns, etc.) to apply the
function to.
• FUN: The function to be applied.
• ...: Additional arguments to be passed to the function.
Example:
# Create a matrix
my_matrix <- matrix(1:9, nrow = 3, ncol = 3)
# Calculate the sum of each row
row_sums <- apply(my_matrix, 1, sum)
print(row_sums)

3.10.2 lapply()
Purpose: Applies a function to each element of a list.
Syntax: lapply(X, FUN, ...)
• X: The list to which the function is applied.
• FUN: The function to be applied.
• ...: Additional arguments to be passed to the function.
Example:
# Create a list of numbers
my_list <- list(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
# Square each element
squared_list <- lapply(my_list, function(x) x^2)
print(squared_list)

3.10.3 sapply()
Purpose: Similar to lapply(), but simplifies the output to a vector or matrix.
Syntax: sapply(X, FUN, ..., simplify = TRUE)

3.10.4 vapply()
Purpose: Like sapply(), but allows you to specify the type of the output.
Syntax: vapply(X, FUN, FUN.VALUE, ..., USE.NAMES = TRUE)
3.10.5 tapply()
Purpose: Applies a function to subsets of a vector, splitting the vector based on factors.
Syntax: tapply(X, INDEX, FUN, ..., simplify = TRUE)
Example:
# Create a vector and a factor
x <- 1:10
f <- factor(rep(c("A", "B"), 5))
# Calculate the mean of x for each level of f
means <- tapply(x, f, mean)
print(means)

5.2.2 Mode using function from the data frame

# create a data frame
df <- data.frame(x = c(1, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12),
y = c(2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 11, 11),
z = c(8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 13, 15, 17))
# Define the mode function
find_mode <- function(x) {
unique_values <- unique(x)
counts <- tabulate(match(x, unique_values))
unique_values[which.max(counts)]
}
# Apply the find_mode function to each column of the data frame
modes <- apply(df, 2, find_mode)
print(modes)

5.3 Measure of Dispersion(Descriptive Statistics 3)

5.3.1 Range
#Range: The difference between the maximum and minimum values.
data <- c(10, 20, 30, 40, 50)
range(data)
# Calculate the range using the range function
range_value <- range(data)[2] - range(data)[1]
range_value
5.3.2 Variance
#Variance: The average squared deviation from the mean.
var(data)
5.3.3 Standard Deviation
#Standard Deviation: The square root of the variance, providing a measure of dispersion in the same
units as the original data.
sd(data)
5.4 Datasheet (Descriptive Statistics 4)
# Load the iris dataset
data(iris)
# Calculate the range of Sepal Length
range(iris$Sepal.Length)
# Calculate the variance of Petal Width
var(iris$Petal.Width)

sd(iris$Sepal.Width)
# Calculate the IQR of the Petal Length
IQR(iris$Petal.Length)

5.4.1 Tribbles in R: A Concise Data Frame Creation

A tribble is a concise way to create a data frame in R, especially useful for small data sets. It's part of
the tidyverse package.
STEP 1: Load the ‘dplyr’ package in R.
STEP 2: Tick ‘Tribble.’ in RStudio

19
tribble(~X,~Y,"v",15,"w",5,"x",25,"y",20)
tribble(~A,~B,"m",11:14,"n",2:6,"o",21:25,"p",51:56)

5.5 Student data case (Descriptive Statistics5)

• Create a script file by going to File>New File>R Script
• Import Dataset in the File Menu and then choose “From Excel”
• Select the data file Student_data
• Click open
#check the first 6 rows of the file
head(Student_data)
#check the last 6 rows of the file
tail(Student_data)
#check the dimensions
dim(Student_data)
#check the number of columns
length(Student_data)
#check the variables
attributes(Student_data)
#check the class of variables
class(Student_data$`Roll No.`)
class(Student_data$Gender)
class(Student_data$`Income Group`)
class(Student_data$Marks)
#check the summary of the file
summary(Student_data)
#check the summary of marks only
summary(Student_data$Marks)
BA<-Student_data$Marks
summary(BA)
#convert Income Group into categorical
IG<-as.factor(Student_data$`Income Group`)
summary(IG)
#convert Gender into categorical
gender<-as.factor(Student_data$Gender)
summary(gender)

6 Relationship between two variables

6.1 Covariance (Descriptive Statistics6)
x<-c(1,3,5,10)
y<-c(2,4,6,20)
cov(x,y)
cov(x,y, method = "pearson")
cov(x,y, method = "kendall")
cov(x,y, method = "spearman")

6.2 Correlation (Descriptive Statistics7)

x<-c(1,3,5,10)
y<-c(2,4,6,20)

20
cor(x,y)
cor(x,y, method = "pearson")
cor(x,y, method = "kendall")
cor(x,y, method = "spearman")

6.3 Coefficient of Determination (Descriptive Statistics8)

x<-c(1,3,5,10)
y<-c(2,4,6,20)
r_squared<-cor(x,y)^2
r_squared
OR
# Sample data
x <- c(1, 3, 5, 10)
y <- c(2, 4, 6, 20)
# Create a linear model
model <- lm(y ~ x)
# Extract R-squared
r_squared <- summary(model)$r.squared
# Print R-squared
print(r_squared)

##find covariance and correlation

u<-c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
v<-c(10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1)
w<-c(2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20)
cov(u,v)
cor(u,v)
cov(u,w)
cor(u,w)
