Hi All,
I have a data frame with several columns and I want to create
another column by using the values of the other columns. My
problem is that some the row values for some columns have missing
values and I could not get the result I waned .
Here is the sample of my data and my attempt.
vdat<-read.table(text="obs, Year, x1, x2, x3
1, 2001, 25 ,10, 10
2, 2001, , 15, 25
3, 2001, 50, 10,
4, 2001, 20, , 60",sep=",",header=TRUE,stringsAsFactors=F)
vdat$xy <- 0
vdat$xy <- 2*(vdat$x1) + 5*(vdat$x2) + 3*(vdat$x3)
vdat
obs Year x1 x2 x3 xy
1 1 2001 25 10 10 130
2 2 2001 NA 15 25 NA
3 3 2001 50 10 NA NA
4 4 2001 20 NA 60 NA
The desired result si this,
obs Year x1 x2 x3 xy
1 1 2001 25 10 10 130
2 2 2001 NA 15 25 150
3 3 2001 50 10 NA 150
4 4 2001 20 NA 60 220
How do I get my desired result?
Thank you
