Hello,

A logical index seems right. (And even intuitive?)

Create an index based on the conditions, multiplying 0/1 (FALSE/TRUE) by the condition number. If all conditions are false, the index will be 0.

Then use ifelse() to update 'code'.

new_values <- c(1, 5, 10)
i <- apply(phdf[-6], 1, function(x){
    1*all(x == 0) +                       # rule 1
    2*(x[1] == 1 & x[2] == 1) +           # rule 2
    3*(x[1] == 0 & x[2] == 1 & x[3] == 2) # rule 3
})
phdf$code <- ifelse(i == 0, phdf$code, new_values[i])


Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Hi Phillip,
The following seems to do what you want:

phdf<-read.table(text="v1 v2 v3 v4 v5 code
  0  0  0  0  0    1
  1  4  0  0  0    1
  1  1  0  0  0    1
  1  0  1  0  0    1
  2  0  1  0  0    1
  0  1  0  0  0    1
  0  1  2  0  0    1
  0  1  2  3  0    1
  0  2  3  4  4    1
  0  0  0  2  3    1",
  header=TRUE,
  stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
rules<-list("x[1]==0&&x[2]==0&&x[3]==0&&x[4]==0&&x[5]==0",
  "x[1]==1&&x[2]==1","x[1]==0&&x[2]==1&&x[3]==2")
outcomes<-c(1,5,10)
apply_rule<-function(x,rule) return(eval(parse(text=rule)))
for(ri in 1:length(rules))
  phdf[apply(phdf,1,apply_rule,rules[[ri]]),"code"] <- outcomes[ri]

and can be expanded to the number of rules that you want. BUT, you
have not specified a non-match value, so your initial values for
"code" will persist.

With the snippet of data below I’m trying to do an if/then type of thing:
     row 1 – if all five variables equal 0 then code equals 1;
     row 3 – if v1 = 1 and v2 = 1 then code = 5;
     row 7 – if v1 = 0 and v2 = 1 and v3 = 2 then code = 10

There are 24 codes in the complete database.


    v1 v2 v3 v4 v5 code
1   0  0  0  0  0    1
2   1  4  0  0  0    1

8   0  1  2  3  0    1
9   0  2  3  4  4    1
10  0  0  0  2  3    1  I understand that the mapply function can do things 
like this but I have been reading documentation and poking around with Google 
but am getting nowhere.  Any advise whould be greatly appreciated.
