Hello List,?I was trying to write a function.?But I got a error message. Can someone help me how to fix it? Many thanks,Kai

I would have thought the error message to be completely self-explanatory. The object in question cannot be found. I.e. it does not exist, in your workspace or in any of the data bases on your search path. It would appear that you have not created "Test.Result.tr_Test.Result1". Why did you expect it to be present? Moreover, the code of your function makes no sense at all, at least not to *my* feeble brain. The quantities "raw", "Pedigree.name" and "UPN" are not arguments of your function. How do you expect k_subset() to know what they are? cheers, Rolf Turner

Hi Rolf, I am a beginner for R.? I have a date frame raw. it contents the fields of?pedigree.name, UPN, Test.Result.tr_Test.Result1, Result.tr_gene1, Test.Result.tr_Variant..nucleotide.1 ......?Test.Result.tr_Test.Result20, Result.tr_gene20, Test.Result.tr_Variant..nucleotide.20 Basically, I want transpose the data frame from wide format into long format.?So, I hope the function can generate subset the those fields for 20 times, rename them and then stack them into one long format data frame.?After that, I hope I can use "for" loop to do this. And now, I don't know how to fix the error Thank you,Kai

Hi Rolf, I am a beginner for R.
Then I suggest that you spend some time learning basic R syntax, with the help of some of the excellent online tutorials. "An Introduction to R" from https://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html would be a good place to start.
I have a date frame raw. it contents the fields of?pedigree.name, UPN, Test.Result.tr_Test.Result1, Result.tr_gene1, Test.Result.tr_Variant..nucleotide.1 ...... Test.Result.tr_Test.Result20, Result.tr_gene20, Test.Result.tr_Variant..nucleotide.20
In this case something along the lines of the following *might* work: xxx <- with(raw,k_subset(<some arguments>)) but you would have to rewrite the function k_subset() so that its argument list actually makes sense.
Basically, I want transpose the data frame from wide format into long format.
I'm not actually very good at this sort of thing, but a quick web search tells me that there are existing ways to do this, using tools from the tidyr package. Apparently there are also tools for this sort of thing in the dplyr package. Since the function select() that you invoke is from the dplyr package (and you really should have mentioned this rather than expecting your readers to be psychic) using dplyr tools might be the best way for you to go.
So, I hope the function can generate subset the those fields for 20 times, rename them and then stack them into one long format data frame.?After that, I hope I can use "for" loop to do this. And now, I don't know how to fix the error Thank you,Kai
As I said, this sort of thing is not my fort?, so I cannot help you
further. If you want others on the list to help you then you should
provide an example data set ("raw" or some version thereof). Use
dput() to provide the data in your posting.
*DO NOT* post in html!!!
cheers,
Rolf

Hi. You also could try functions melt/cast from reshape2 package. https://seananderson.ca/2013/10/19/reshape/ Cheers Petr

Hi Rolf,
I am a beginner for R.
I have a date frame raw. it contents the fields of pedigree.name, UPN,
Test.Result.tr_Test.Result1, Result.tr_gene1,
Test.Result.tr_Variant..nucleotide.1 ...... Test.Result.tr_Test.Result20,
Result.tr_gene20, Test.Result.tr_Variant..nucleotide.20
Basically, I want transpose the data frame from wide format into long
format. So, I hope the function can generate subset the those fields for 20
times, rename them and then stack them into one long format data
frame. After that, I hope I can use "for" loop to do this.
And now, I don't know how to fix the error Thank you,Kai
