Recode some values based on condition

recode_if(x, condition, true)

Arguments

x: vector to be recoded
condition: logical vector of same length as x
true: values to use for TRUE values of condition. It must be either the same length as x, or length 1.

Value

Returns x with values replaced by true when condition is TRUE and unchanged when condition is FALSE or NA. Variable and value labels are preserved unchanged.

Examples

v <- labelled(c(1,2,2,9), c(yes = 1, no = 2))
v %>% recode_if(v == 9, NA)
#> <labelled<double>[4]>
#> [1]  1  2  2 NA
#> 
#> Labels:
#>  value label
#>      1   yes
#>      2    no
