This R package provides helper functions I found useful when developing R code - perhaps you will too! The released package version can be installed via:
install.packages("oeli")The following shows some demos. Click the headings for references on all available helpers in each category.
The package has density and sampling functions for some distributions not included in base R, like the Dirichlet:
ddirichlet(x = c(0.2, 0.3, 0.5), concentration = 1:3)
#> [1] 4.5
rdirichlet(concentration = 1:3)
#> [1] 0.01795087 0.41315984 0.56888929Or the mixture of Gaussian distributions:
x <- c(0, 0)
mean <- matrix(c(1, 1, -1, -1), ncol = 2) # means in columns
Sigma <- matrix(c(diag(2), 0.1 * diag(2)), ncol = 2) # vectorized covariances in columns
proportions <- c(0.7, 0.3)
dmixnorm(x = x, mean = mean, Sigma = Sigma, proportions = proportions)
#> [1] 0.04100656
pmixnorm(x = x, mean = mean, Sigma = Sigma, proportions = proportions)
#> [1] 0.3171506
rmixnorm(n = 1000, mean = mean, Sigma = Sigma, proportions = proportions) |>

ggplot2::ggplot() + ggplot2::geom_point(ggplot2::aes(x = V1, y = V2))
Retrieving default arguments of a function:

How to print a matrix without filling up the entire console?
x <- matrix(rnorm(10000), ncol = 100, nrow = 100)
print_matrix(x, rowdots = 4, coldots = 4, digits = 2, label = "what a big matrix")
#> what a big matrix : 100 x 100 matrix of doubles
#> [,1] [,2] [,3] ... [,100]
#> [1,] -0.3 -0.74 -0.1 ... 1.01
#> [2,] 1.39 -2.06 1.29 ... -0.5
#> [3,] -0.45 -1.57 0.43 ... 1.61
#> ... ... ... ... ... ...
#> [100,] 1.12 0.77 -1.6 ... -0.08And what about a data.frame?
x <- data.frame(x = rnorm(1000), y = LETTERS[1:10])
print_data.frame(x, rows = 7, digits = 0)
#> x y
#> 1 0 A
#> 2 1 B
#> 3 0 C
#> 4 -1 D
#> <993 rows hidden>
#>
#> 998 0 H
#> 999 0 I
#> 1000 2 JLet’s simulate correlated regressor values from different marginal distributions:
labels <- c("P", "C", "N1", "N2", "U")
n <- 100
marginals <- list(
"P" = list(type = "poisson", lambda = 2),
"C" = list(type = "categorical", p = c(0.3, 0.2, 0.5)),
"N1" = list(type = "normal", mean = -1, sd = 2),
"U" = list(type = "uniform", min = -2, max = -1)
)
correlation <- matrix(
c(1, -0.3, -0.1, 0, 0.5,
-0.3, 1, 0.3, -0.5, -0.7,
-0.1, 0.3, 1, -0.3, -0.3,
0, -0.5, -0.3, 1, 0.1,
0.5, -0.7, -0.3, 0.1, 1),
nrow = 5, ncol = 5
)
data <- correlated_regressors(
labels = labels, n = n, marginals = marginals, correlation = correlation
)

the values in a specified column:
df <- data.frame("label" = c("A", "B"), "number" = 1:10)
group_data.frame(df = df, by = "label")
#> $A
#> label number
