| This lesson is meant to be a short introduction to
| logical operations in R.
…
|= | 2%
| There are two logical values in R, also called
| boolean values. They are TRUE and FALSE. In R you can
| construct logical expressions which will evaluate to
| either TRUE or FALSE.
…
|== | 4%
| Many of the questions in this lesson will involve
| evaluating logical expressions. It may be useful to
| open up a second R terminal where you can experiment
| with some of these expressions.
…
|=== | 6%
| Creating logical expressions requires logical
| operators. You’re probably familiar with arithmetic
| operators like +
, -
, *
, and /
. The first
| logical operator we are going to discuss is the
| equality operator, represented by two equals signs
| ==
. Use the equality operator below to find out if
| TRUE is equal to TRUE.
TRUE == TRUE
[1] TRUE
| That’s the answer I was looking for.
|==== | 8%
| Just like arithmetic, logical expressions can be
| grouped by parenthesis so that the entire expression
| (TRUE == TRUE) == TRUE evaluates to TRUE.
…
|==== | 10%
| To test out this property, try evaluating (FALSE ==
| TRUE) == FALSE .
(FALSE == TRUE) == FALSE
[1] TRUE
| You are doing so well!
|===== | 12%
| The equality operator can also be used to compare
| numbers. Use ==
to see if 6 is equal to 7.
6 == 7
[1] FALSE
| Nice work!
|====== | 13%
| The previous expression evaluates to FALSE because 6
| is less than 7. Thankfully, there are inequality
| operators that allow us to test if a value is less
| than or greater than another value.
…
|======= | 15%
| The less than operator <
tests whether the number
| on the left side of the operator (called the left
| operand) is less than the number on the right side of
| the operator (called the right operand). Write an
| expression to test whether 6 is less than 7.
6 < 7
[1] TRUE
| That’s a job well done!
|======== | 17%
| There is also a less-than-or-equal-to operator <=
| which tests whether the left operand is less than or
| equal to the right operand. Write an expression to
| test whether 10 is less than or equal to 10.
10 <= 10
[1] TRUE
| You are quite good my friend!
|========= | 19%
| Keep in mind that there are the corresponding greater
| than >
and greater-than-or-equal-to >=
operators.
…
|========== | 21%
| Which of the following evaluates to FALSE?
1: 7 == 7
2: 6 < 8
3: 0 > -36
4: 9 >= 10
Selection: 4
| Excellent job!
|=========== | 23%
| Which of the following evaluates to TRUE?
1: 57 < 8
2: 7 == 9
3: 9 >= 10
4: -6 > -7
Selection: 4
| Perseverance, that’s the answer.
|============ | 25%
| The next operator we will discuss is the ‘not equals’
| operator represented by !=
. Not equals tests
| whether two values are unequal, so TRUE != FALSE
| evaluates to TRUE. Like the equality operator, !=
| can also be used with numbers. Try writing an
| expression to see if 5 is not equal to 7.
5 != 7
[1] TRUE
| All that practice is paying off!
|============ | 27%
| In order to negate boolean expressions you can use
| the NOT operator. An exclamation point !
will cause
| !TRUE (say: not true) to evaluate to FALSE and !FALSE
| (say: not false) to evaluate to TRUE. Try using the
| NOT operator and the equals operator to find the
| opposite of whether 5 is equal to 7.
!(5 == 7)
[1] TRUE
| Perseverance, that’s the answer.
|============= | 29%
| Let’s take a moment to review. The equals operator
| ==
tests whether two boolean values or numbers are
| equal, the not equals operator !=
tests whether two
| boolean values or numbers are unequal, and the NOT
| operator !
negates logical expressions so that TRUE
| expressions become FALSE and FALSE expressions become
| TRUE.
…
|============== | 31%
| Which of the following evaluates to FALSE?
1: !FALSE
2: 9 < 10
3: !(0 >= -1)
4: 7 != 8
Selection: 3
| Excellent job!
|=============== | 33%
| What do you think the following expression will
| evaluate to?: (TRUE != FALSE) == !(6 == 7)
1: FALSE
2: TRUE
3: Can there be objective truth when programming?
4: %>%
Selection: 2
| That’s the answer I was looking for.
|================ | 35%
| At some point you may need to examine relationships
| between multiple logical expressions. This is where
| the AND operator and the OR operator come in.
…
|================= | 37%
| Let’s look at how the AND operator works. There are
| two AND operators in R, &
and &&
. Both operators
| work similarly, if the right and left operands of AND
| are both TRUE the entire expression is TRUE,
| otherwise it is FALSE. For example, TRUE & TRUE
| evaluates to TRUE. Try typing FALSE & FALSE to how it
| is evaluated.
TRUE & FALSE
[1] FALSE
| One more time. You can do it! Or, type info() for
| more options.
| Just to illustrate how the AND operator works type:
| FALSE & FALSE
FALSE & FALSE
[1] FALSE
| Excellent work!
|================== | 38%
| You can use the &
operator to evaluate AND across a
| vector. The &&
version of AND only evaluates the
| first member of a vector. Let’s test both for
| practice. Type the expression TRUE & c(TRUE, FALSE,
| FALSE).
TRUE & C(TRUE,FALSE,FALSE)
Error in C(TRUE, FALSE, FALSE) : 不能把对象解释成因子TRUE & c(TRUE,FALSE,FALSE)
[1] TRUE FALSE FALSE
| Your dedication is inspiring!
|=================== | 40%
| What happens in this case is that the left operand
| TRUE
is recycled across every element in the vector
| of the right operand. This is the equivalent
| statement as c(TRUE, TRUE, TRUE) & c(TRUE, FALSE,
| FALSE).
…
|=================== | 42%
| Now we’ll type the same expression except we’ll use
| the &&
operator. Type the expression TRUE &&
| c(TRUE, FALSE, FALSE).
TRUE && c(TRUE,FALSE,FALSE)
[1] TRUE
| That’s correct!
|==================== | 44%
| In this case, the left operand is only evaluated with
| the first member of the right operand (the vector).
| The rest of the elements in the vector aren’t
| evaluated at all in this expression.
…
|===================== | 46%
| The OR operator follows a similar set of rules. The
| |
version of OR evaluates OR across an entire
| vector, while the ||
version of OR only evaluates
| the first member of a vector.
…
|====================== | 48%
| An expression using the OR operator will evaluate to
| TRUE if the left operand or the right operand is
| TRUE. If both are TRUE, the expression will evaluate
| to TRUE, however if neither are TRUE, then the
| expression will be FALSE.
…
|======================= | 50%
| Let’s test out the vectorized version of the OR
| operator. Type the expression TRUE | c(TRUE, FALSE,
| FALSE).
TRUE | c(TRUE,FALSE,FALSE)
[1] TRUE TRUE TRUE
| You got it!
|======================== | 52%
| Now let’s try out the non-vectorized version of the
| OR operator. Type the expression TRUE || c(TRUE,
| FALSE, FALSE).
TRUE || c(TRUE,FALSE,FALSE)
[1] TRUE
| You got it right!
|========================= | 54%
| Logical operators can be chained together just like
| arithmetic operators. The expressions: 6 != 10 && | FALSE && 1 >= 2
or TRUE || 5 < 9.3 || FALSE
are
| perfectly normal to see.
…
|========================== | 56%
| As you may recall, arithmetic has an order of
| operations and so do logical expressions. All AND
| operators are evaluated before OR operators. Let’s
| look at an example of an ambiguous case. Type: 5 > 8
| || 6 != 8 && 4 > 3.9
5 > 8 || !=8 && 4 >3.9
Error: unexpected ‘!=’ in “5 > 8 || !=”
5 > 8 || 6 != 8 && 4 > 3.9
[1] TRUE
| You got it right!
|=========================== | 58%
| Let’s walk through the order of operations in the
| above case. First the left and right operands of the
| AND operator are evaluated. 6 is not equal 8, 4 is
| greater than 3.9, therefore both operands are TRUE so
| the resulting expression TRUE && TRUE
evaluates to
| TRUE. Then the left operand of the OR operator is
| evaluated: 5 is not greater than 8 so the entire
| expression is reduced to FALSE || TRUE. Since the
| right operand of this expression is TRUE the entire
| expression evaluates to TRUE.
…
|=========================== | 60%
| Which one of the following expressions evaluates to
| TRUE?
1: FALSE || TRUE && FALSE
2: TRUE && FALSE || 9 >= 4 && 3 < 6
3: 99.99 > 100 || 45 < 7.3 || 4 != 4.0
4: TRUE && 62 < 62 && 44 >= 44
Selection: 2
| Excellent work!
|============================ | 62%
| Which one of the following expressions evaluates to
| FALSE?
1: FALSE || TRUE && 6 != 4 || 9 > 4
2: FALSE && 6 >= 6 || 7 >= 8 || 50 <= 49.5
3: !(8 > 4) || 5 == 5.0 && 7.8 >= 7.79
4: 6 >= -9 && !(6 > 7) && !(!TRUE)
Selection: 2
| That’s the answer I was looking for.
|============================= | 63%
| Now that you’re familiar with R’s logical operators
| you can take advantage of a few functions that R
| provides for dealing with logical expressions.
…
|============================== | 65%
| The function isTRUE() takes one argument. If that
| argument evaluates to TRUE, the function will return
| TRUE. Otherwise, the function will return FALSE. Try
| using this function by typing: isTRUE(6 > 4)
isTRUE(6>4)
[1] TRUE
| Keep working like that and you’ll get there!
|=============================== | 67%
| Which of the following evaluates to TRUE?
1: isTRUE(NA)
2: isTRUE(3)
3: !isTRUE(4 < 3)
4: !isTRUE(8 != 5)
5: isTRUE(!TRUE)
Selection: 3
| You got it right!
|================================ | 69%
| The function identical() will return TRUE if the two
| R objects passed to it as arguments are identical.
| Try out the identical() function by typing:
| identical(‘twins’, ‘twins’)
identical(‘twins’,‘twins’)
[1] TRUE
| Keep up the great work!
|================================= | 71%
| Which of the following evaluates to TRUE?
1: identical(‘hello’, ‘Hello’)
2: !identical(7, 7)
3: identical(5 > 4, 3 < 3.1)
4: identical(4, 3.1)
Selection: 3
| Your dedication is inspiring!
|================================== | 73%
| You should also be aware of the xor() function, which
| takes two arguments. The xor() function stands for
| exclusive OR. If one argument evaluates to TRUE and
| one argument evaluates to FALSE, then this function
| will return TRUE, otherwise it will return FALSE. Try
| out the xor() function by typing: xor(5 == 6, !FALSE)
xor(5==6, !FALSE)
[1] TRUE
| Perseverance, that’s the answer.
|================================== | 75%
| 5 == 6 evaluates to FALSE, !FALSE evaluates to TRUE,
| so xor(FALSE, TRUE) evaluates to TRUE. On the other
| hand if the first argument was changed to 5 == 5 and
| the second argument was unchanged then both arguments
| would have been TRUE, so xor(TRUE, TRUE) would have
| evaluated to FALSE.
…
|=================================== | 77%
| Which of the following evaluates to FALSE?
1: xor(!!TRUE, !!FALSE)
2: xor(identical(xor, ‘xor’), 7 == 7.0)
3: xor(!isTRUE(TRUE), 6 > -1)
4: xor(4 >= 9, 8 != 8.0)
Selection:
Enter an item from the menu, or 0 to exit
Selection: 3
| Nice try, but that’s not exactly what I was hoping
| for. Try again.
| For xor() to evaluate to TRUE, one argument must be
| TRUE and one must be FALSE.
1: xor(!isTRUE(TRUE), 6 > -1)
2: xor(4 >= 9, 8 != 8.0)
3: xor(identical(xor, ‘xor’), 7 == 7.0)
4: xor(!!TRUE, !!FALSE)
Selection: 2
| Excellent job!
|==================================== | 79%
| For the next few questions, we’re going to need to
| create a vector of integers called ints. Create this
| vector by typing: ints <- sample(10)
play()
| Entering play mode. Experiment as you please, then
| type nxt() when you are ready to resume the lesson.
identical(‘xor’,xor)
[1] FALSE
identical(7 == 7.0)
Error in identical(7 == 7) : argument “y” is missing, with no default
nxt()
| Resuming lesson…
| For the next few questions, we’re going to need to
| create a vector of integers called ints. Create this
| vector by typing: ints <- sample(10)
ints <- sample(10)
| You are quite good my friend!
|===================================== | 81%
| Now simply display the contents of ints.
ints
[1] 3 1 2 10 4 7 6 9 5 8
| Great job!
|====================================== | 83%
| The vector ints
is a random sampling of integers
| from 1 to 10 without replacement. Let’s say we wanted
| to ask some logical questions about contents of ints.
| If we type ints > 5, we will get a logical vector
| corresponding to whether each element of ints is
| greater than 5. Try typing: ints > 5
ints > 5
[1] FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE FALSE TRUE TRUE TRUE
[9] FALSE TRUE
| Keep working like that and you’ll get there!
|======================================= | 85%
| We can use the resulting logical vector to ask other
| questions about ints. The which() function takes a
| logical vector as an argument and returns the indices
| of the vector that are TRUE. For example
| which(c(TRUE, FALSE, TRUE)) would return the vector
| c(1, 3).
…which(c(TRUE,FALSE,TRUE))
|======================================== | 87%
| Use the which() function to find the indices of ints
| that are greater than 7.
which(ints > 7)
[1] 4 8 10
| Excellent job!
|========================================= | 88%
| Which of the following commands would produce the
| indices of the elements in ints that are less than or
| equal to 2?
1: ints <= 2
2: which(ints < 2)
3: which(ints <= 2)
4: ints < 2
Selection: 3
| All that hard work is paying off!
|========================================== | 90%
| Like the which() function, the functions any() and
| all() take logical vectors as their argument. The
| any() function will return TRUE if one or more of the
| elements in the logical vector is TRUE. The all()
| function will return TRUE if every element in the
| logical vector is TRUE.
…
|========================================== | 92%
| Use the any() function to see if any of the elements
| of ints are less than zero.
any(ints < 0)
[1] FALSE
| Excellent job!
|=========================================== | 94%
| Use the all() function to see if all of the elements
| of ints are greater than zero.
all(ints > 0)
[1] TRUE
| You are quite good my friend!
|============================================ | 96%
| Which of the following evaluates to TRUE?
1: any(ints == 10)
2: any(ints == 2.5)
3: all(ints == 10)
4: all(c(TRUE, FALSE, TRUE))
Selection: 1
| All that practice is paying off!
|============================================= | 98%
