Fast (Grouped, Weighted) Product for Matrix-Like Objects
Fast (Grouped, Weighted) Product for Matrix-Like Objects
fprod is a generic function that computes the (column-wise) product of all values in x, (optionally) grouped by g and/or weighted by w. The TRA argument can further be used to transform x using its (grouped, weighted) product.
fprod(x,...)## Default S3 method:fprod(x, g =NULL, w =NULL, TRA =NULL, na.rm = .op[["na.rm"]], use.g.names =TRUE,...)## S3 method for class 'matrix'fprod(x, g =NULL, w =NULL, TRA =NULL, na.rm = .op[["na.rm"]], use.g.names =TRUE, drop =TRUE,...)## S3 method for class 'data.frame'fprod(x, g =NULL, w =NULL, TRA =NULL, na.rm = .op[["na.rm"]], use.g.names =TRUE, drop =TRUE,...)## S3 method for class 'grouped_df'fprod(x, w =NULL, TRA =NULL, na.rm = .op[["na.rm"]], use.g.names =FALSE, keep.group_vars =TRUE, keep.w =TRUE, stub = .op[["stub"]],...)
Arguments
x: a numeric vector, matrix, data frame or grouped data frame (class 'grouped_df').
g: a factor, GRP object, atomic vector (internally converted to factor) or a list of vectors / factors (internally converted to a GRP object) used to group x.
w: a numeric vector of (non-negative) weights, may contain missing values.
na.rm: logical. Skip missing values in x. Defaults to TRUE and implemented at very little computational cost. If na.rm = FALSE a NA is returned when encountered.
use.g.names: logical. Make group-names and add to the result as names (default method) or row-names (matrix and data frame methods). No row-names are generated for data.table's.
drop: matrix and data.frame method: Logical. TRUE drops dimensions and returns an atomic vector if g = NULL and TRA = NULL.
keep.group_vars: grouped_df method: Logical. FALSE removes grouping variables after computation.
keep.w: grouped_df method: Logical. Retain product of weighting variable after computation (if contained in grouped_df).
stub: character. If keep.w = TRUE and stub = TRUE (default), the weights column is prefixed by "prod.". Users can specify a different prefix through this argument, or set it to FALSE to avoid prefixing.
...: arguments to be passed to or from other methods. If TRA is used, passing set = TRUE will transform data by reference and return the result invisibly.
Details
Non-grouped product computations internally utilize long-doubles in C, for additional numeric precision.
The weighted product is computed as prod(x * w), using a single pass in C. If na.rm = TRUE, missing values will be removed from both x and w i.e. utilizing only x[complete.cases(x,w)] and w[complete.cases(x,w)].
For further computational details see fsum, which works equivalently.
Returns
The (w weighted) product of x, grouped by g, or (if TRA is used) x transformed by its (grouped, weighted) product.
