bookLabeling Vector Elements

Glissez pour afficher le menu

Vectors in R can be labeled so that each value has an associated name. This makes the data easier to interpret, especially when values represent categories such as subjects, products, or months.

Assigning Labels

To label a vector, create a separate vector of names and assign it to the original vector using the names() function. Each label will then correspond to the matching element by position.

Example

Suppose you have grades in several subjects:

This is how you would represent this table in R:

123456
# Create a vector of grades grades <- c(80, 75, 95, 100) # Assign names to the grades names(grades) <- c('Math', 'Physics', 'English', 'Literature') # Display the labeled vector grades
copy

The output displays each grade alongside its corresponding subject, making the results easier to understand.

You manage a local furniture store. You have a list of items and their respective prices, as shown below:

ItemPrice
Sofa$340
Armchair$150
Dining table$115
Dining chair$45
Bookshelf$160

Your task is to store the prices in a vector named prices and label each price with the corresponding item:

  1. Construct a vector of prices and store it in the variable prices.
  2. Use the variable items to assign names to the elements in the prices vector.
  3. Display the prices vector.
