異なる行のデータの差を計算するにはどうすればよいですか？

Question

私は別の年の同じ月にprecipMMの違いのすべてを計算する場合は、この形式で

PrecipMM   Date 
    122.7   2004-01-01 
    54.2   2005-01-01 
    31.9   2006-01-01 
    100.5   2007-01-01 
    144.9   2008-01-01 
    96.4   2009-01-01 
    75.3   2010-01-01 
    94.8   2011-01-01 
    67.6   2012-01-01 
    93.0   2013-01-01 
    184.6   2014-01-01 
    101.0   2015-01-01 
    149.3   2016-01-01 
    50.2   2004-02-01 
    46.2   2005-02-01 
    57.7   2006-02-01 

を月次データを持っています。

私の夢の出力は次のようである：

PrecipMM   Date   PrecipMM_diff 
    122.7   2004-01-01   NA 
    54.2   2005-01-01   -68.5 
    31.9   2006-01-01   -22.3 
    100.5   2007-01-01   68.6 
    144.9   2008-01-01   44.4 
    96.4   2009-01-01   -48.5 
    75.3   2010-01-01   -21.2 
    94.8   2011-01-01   19.5 
    67.6   2012-01-01   -27.2 
    93.0   2013-01-01   25.4 
    184.6   2014-01-01   91.6 
    101.0   2015-01-01   -83.6 
    149.3   2016-01-01   48.3 
    50.2   2004-02-01   NA 
    46.2   2005-02-01   -4.0 
    57.7   2006-02-01   11.5 

私はdiff()これを行うことができると思うが、私はどのようには考えています。

Answer 1

lagとgroup_byを組み合わせてdplyrからこれを行うことができると思います。方法は次のとおりです。

library(dplyr) 
library(lubridate) # makes dealing with dates easier 

# Load your example data 
df <- structure(list(PrecipMM = c(4.4, 66.7, 48.2, 60.9, 108.1, 109.2, 
101.7, 38.1, 53.8, 71.9, 75.4, 67.1, 92.7, 115.3, 68.9, 38.9), 
    Date = structure(5:20, .Label = c("101.7", "108.1", "109.2", 
    "115.3", "1766-01-01", "1766-02-01", "1766-03-01", "1766-04-01", 
    "1766-05-01", "1766-06-01", "1766-07-01", "1766-08-01", "1766-09-01", 
    "1766-10-01", "1766-11-01", "1766-12-01", "1767-01-01", "1767-02-01", 
    "1767-03-01", "1767-04-01", "38.1", "38.9", "4.4", "48.2", 
    "53.8", "60.9", "66.7", "67.1", "68.9", "71.9", "75.4", "92.7" 
    ), class = "factor")), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, 
-16L), .Names = c("PrecipMM", "Date")) 

results <- df %>% 
    mutate(years = year(Date), months = month(Date)) %>% 
    group_by(months) %>% 
    arrange(years) %>% 
    mutate(lagged.rain = lag(PrecipMM), rain.diff = PrecipMM - lagged.rain) 

results
