Rename variable

data <- use_data_titanic(count = FALSE)
glimpse(data)
#> Rows: 2,201

#> $ Survived <chr> "No", "No", "No", "No", "No", "No", "No", "No", "No", "No", "…

data <- data %>% clean_var(Age, name = "age")

Replace NA values

data <- use_data_beer()
data %>% describe(energy_kcal_100ml)
#> variable = energy_kcal_100ml
#> type     = double
#> na       = 11 of 161 (6.8%)
#> unique   = 34
#> min|max  = 20 | 62

Set min max values

data <- create_data_person()
data %>% describe(age)
#> variable = age
#> type     = integer
#> na       = 0 of 1 000 (0%)
#> unique   = 80
#> min|max  = 16 | 95
#> q05|q95  = 21 | 92
#> q25|q75  = 37 | 76
#> median   = 55
#> mean     = 55.845

data <- data %>% clean_var(age, min_val = 20, max_val = 80)
data %>% describe(age)
#> variable = age
#> type     = integer
#> na       = 0 of 1 000 (0%)
#> unique   = 61
#> min|max  = 20 | 80
#> q05|q95  = 21 | 80
#> q25|q75  = 37 | 76
#> median   = 55
#> mean     = 54.276

Rescale 0 to 1

data %>% describe(income)
#> variable = income
#> type     = double
#> na       = 0 of 1 000 (0%)
#> unique   = 228
#> min|max  = 0 | 150
#> q05|q95  = 6 | 123.025
#> q25|q75  = 35 | 88.625
#> median   = 62
#> mean     = 61.5875

data <- data %>% clean_var(income, rescale01 = TRUE)
data %>% describe(income)
#> variable = income
#> type     = double
#> na       = 0 of 1 000 (0%)
#> unique   = 228
#> min|max  = 0 | 1
#> q05|q95  = 0.04 | 0.820167
#> q25|q75  = 0.233333 | 0.590833
#> median   = 0.4
#> mean     = 0.410583

Cleaning text

data[1, "handset"] <- " android "
data[2, "handset"] <- "ANDROID"
data %>% describe(handset)
#> variable = handset
#> type     = character
#> na       = 0 of 1 000 (0%)
#> unique   = 5
#>   android  = 1 (0.1%)
#>  ANDROID   = 1 (0.1%)
#>  Android   = 471 (47.1%)
#>  Apple     = 430 (43%)
#>  Other     = 97 (9.7%)

data <- data %>% clean_var(handset, simplify_text = TRUE)
data %>% describe(handset)
#> variable = handset
#> type     = character
#> na       = 0 of 1 000 (0%)
#> unique   = 3
#>  ANDROID = 473 (47.3%)
#>  APPLE   = 430 (43%)
#>  OTHER   = 97 (9.7%)
