Add new row to dataframe, at specific row
The following code combines a vector with a dataframe:
newrow = c(1:4)
existingDF = rbind(existingDF,newrow)
However this code always inserts the new row at the end of the dataframe.
How can I insert the row at a specified point within the dataframe? For example, lets say the dataframe has 20 rows, how can I insert the new row between rows 10 and 11?
Here's a solution that avoids the (often slow) rbind call:
existingDF <- as.data.frame(matrix(seq(20),nrow=5,ncol=4))
r <- 3
newrow <- seq(4)
insertRow <- function(existingDF, newrow, r) {
existingDF[seq(r+1,nrow(existingDF)+1),] <- existingDF[seq(r,nrow(existingDF)),]
existingDF[r,] <- newrow
existingDF
}
> insertRow(existingDF, newrow, r)
V1 V2 V3 V4
1 1 6 11 16
2 2 7 12 17
3 1 2 3 4
4 3 8 13 18
5 4 9 14 19
6 5 10 15 20
If speed is less important than clarity, then @Simon's solution works well:
existingDF <- rbind(existingDF[1:r,],newrow,existingDF[-(1:r),])
> existingDF
V1 V2 V3 V4
1 1 6 11 16
2 2 7 12 17
3 3 8 13 18
4 1 2 3 4
41 4 9 14 19
5 5 10 15 20
(Note we index r differently).
And finally, benchmarks:
library(microbenchmark)
microbenchmark(
rbind(existingDF[1:r,],newrow,existingDF[-(1:r),]),
insertRow(existingDF,newrow,r)
)
Unit: microseconds
expr min lq median uq max
1 insertRow(existingDF, newrow, r) 660.131 678.3675 695.5515 725.2775 928.299
2 rbind(existingDF[1:r, ], newrow, existingDF[-(1:r), ]) 801.161 831.7730 854.6320 881.6560 10641.417
Benchmarks
As @MatthewDowle always points out to me, benchmarks need to be examined for the scaling as the size of the problem increases. Here we go then:
benchmarkInsertionSolutions <- function(nrow=5,ncol=4) {
existingDF <- as.data.frame(matrix(seq(nrow*ncol),nrow=nrow,ncol=ncol))
r <- 3 # Row to insert into
newrow <- seq(ncol)
m <- microbenchmark(
rbind(existingDF[1:r,],newrow,existingDF[-(1:r),]),
insertRow(existingDF,newrow,r),
insertRow2(existingDF,newrow,r)
)
# Now return the median times
mediansBy <- by(m$time,m$expr, FUN=median)
res <- as.numeric(mediansBy)
names(res) <- names(mediansBy)
res
}
nrows <- 5*10^(0:5)
benchmarks <- sapply(nrows,benchmarkInsertionSolutions)
colnames(benchmarks) <- as.character(nrows)
ggplot( melt(benchmarks), aes(x=Var2,y=value,colour=Var1) ) + geom_line() + scale_x_log10() + scale_y_log10()
@Roland's solution scales quite well, even with the call to rbind :
5 50 500 5000 50000 5e+05
insertRow2(existingDF, newrow, r) 549861.5 579579.0 789452 2512926 46994560 414790214
insertRow(existingDF, newrow, r) 895401.0 905318.5 1168201 2603926 39765358 392904851
rbind(existingDF[1:r, ], newrow, existingDF[-(1:r), ]) 787218.0 814979.0 1263886 5591880 63351247 829650894
Plotted on a linear scale:
And a log-log scale:
insertRow2 <- function(existingDF, newrow, r) {
existingDF <- rbind(existingDF,newrow)
existingDF <- existingDF[order(c(1:(nrow(existingDF)-1),r-0.5)),]
row.names(existingDF) <- 1:nrow(existingDF)
return(existingDF)
}
insertRow2(existingDF,newrow,r)
V1 V2 V3 V4
1 1 6 11 16
2 2 7 12 17
3 1 2 3 4
4 3 8 13 18
5 4 9 14 19
6 5 10 15 20
microbenchmark(
+ rbind(existingDF[1:r,],newrow,existingDF[-(1:r),]),
+ insertRow(existingDF,newrow,r),
+ insertRow2(existingDF,newrow,r)
+ )
Unit: microseconds
expr min lq median uq max
1 insertRow(existingDF, newrow, r) 513.157 525.6730 531.8715 544.4575 1409.553
2 insertRow2(existingDF, newrow, r) 430.664 443.9010 450.0570 461.3415 499.988
3 rbind(existingDF[1:r, ], newrow, existingDF[-(1:r), ]) 606.822 625.2485 633.3710 653.1500 1489.216
You should try dplyr package
library(dplyr)
a <- data.frame(A = c(1, 2, 3, 4),
B = c(11, 12, 13, 14))
system.time({
for (i in 50:1000) {
b <- data.frame(A = i, B = i * i)
a <- bind_rows(a, b)
}
})
Output
user system elapsed
0.25 0.00 0.25
In contrast with using rbind function
a <- data.frame(A = c(1, 2, 3, 4),
B = c(11, 12, 13, 14))
system.time({
for (i in 50:1000) {
b <- data.frame(A = i, B = i * i)
a <- rbind(a, b)
}
})
Output
user system elapsed
0.49 0.00 0.49
There is some performance gain.
