bookAccessing Columns in Data Frames

Data frames always have named columns, and you can use these names to extract specific columns. There are two main approaches.

Using Square Brackets

You can specify the column name inside square brackets.

Example

1234567
name <- c("Alex", "Julia", "Finn") age <- c(24, 43, 32) gender <- c("M", "F", "M") test <- data.frame(name, age, gender) # Extracting the name with square brackets test[, "name"]
copy

Using the Dollar Sign

Data frames also support a shorthand operator, $, which allows you to access a column by name without quotes.

Example

1234567
name <- c("Alex", "Julia", "Finn") age <- c(24, 43, 32) gender <- c("M", "F", "M") test <- data.frame(name, age, gender) # Extracting the name with dollar sign test$name
copy
Tehtävä

You have the mtcars dataset.

Your tasks are:

  1. Extract the cyl column values using square brackets.
  2. Extract the disp column values using the dollar $ sign.
