)

Missing values I

Is it ok to suppress the following warning? Or should you update your code to eliminate it?

df <- tibble(
  x = c(1, 2, 3, NA, 3),
  y = c(5, NA, 10, 0, 5)
)

ggplot(df, aes(x = x, y = y)) +
  geom_point(size = 3)

Warning: Removed 2 rows containing missing values or values outside the
scale range (`geom_point()`).

Missing values II

set.seed(1234)
df <- tibble(x = rnorm(100))

p <- ggplot(df, aes(x = x)) +
  geom_boxplot()
p

df |>
  summarize(med_x = median(x))

# A tibble: 1 × 1
   med_x
   <dbl>
1 -0.385

Missing values II

Is it ok to suppress the following warning? Or should you update your code to eliminate it?

p + xlim(0, 2)

Warning: Removed 69 rows containing non-finite outside the scale range
(`stat_boxplot()`).

Missing values II

Is it ok to suppress the following warning? Or should you update your code to eliminate it?

p + scale_x_continuous(limits = c(0, 2))

Warning: Removed 69 rows containing non-finite outside the scale range
(`stat_boxplot()`).

Missing values II

Why doesn’t the following generate a warning?

p + coord_cartesian(xlim = c(0, 2))

Bringing together multiple data frames

Scenario 2

We…

have multiple data frames

want to want to bring them together so we can plot them

Joining data frames

something_join(x, y)

left_join(): all rows from x
right_join(): all rows from y
full_join(): all rows from both x and y
semi_join(): all rows from x where there are matching values in y, keeping just columns from x
inner_join(): all rows from x where there are matching values in y, return all combination of multiple matches in the case of multiple matches
anti_join(): return all rows from x where there are not matching values in y, never duplicate rows of x

`*_join()` functions

From dplyr
Incredibly useful for bringing datasets with common information (e.g., unique identifier) together
Use by argument when the names of the column containing the common information are not the same across datasets
Always check that the numbers of rows and columns of the result dataset makes sense
Refer to two-table verbs vignette when needed
