我正在尝试清理以下数据集,以便在“更改”字段中保持一定的一致性。

输入:

test_data <- data.frame(ID=c('john@xxx.com', 'sally@xxx.com'),
                        Changes=c('3 max cost changes
  productxyz > pb100  > a : Max cost decreased from $0.98 to $0.83
  productxyz > pb2  > a : Max cost decreased from $1.07 to $0.91
  productxyz > pb2  > b : Max cost decreased from $0.65 to $0.55', 
                                  '2 max cost changes
  productabc > Everything else in "auto & truck maintenance" : Max CPC increased from $0.81 to $0.97
  productabc > pb1000  > x : Max cost decreased from $1.44 to $1.22
  productabc > pb10000  > Everything else in pb10000 : Max CPC increased from $0.63 to $0.76'), stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
  1. 我想删除给定字段中第一个&#34;&gt;&#34;的所有行。接下来是&#34; Everything。我想删除整行。

  2. 对于&#34; Everything&#34;在第二个&#34;&gt;&#34;之后发生,我希望从&#34; Everything&#34;到&#34;:&#34;用&#34; q&#34;

  3. 输出:

    out_data <- data.frame(ID=c('john@xxx.com', 'sally@xxx.com'),
                            Changes=c('3 max cost changes
      productxyz > pb100  > a : Max cost decreased from $0.98 to $0.83
      productxyz > pb2  > a : Max cost decreased from $1.07 to $0.91
      productxyz > pb2  > b : Max cost decreased from $0.65 to $0.55', 
                                      '2 max cost changes
      productabc > pb1000  > x : Max cost decreased from $1.44 to $1.22
      productabc > pb10000  > q : Max CPC increased from $0.63 to $0.76'), stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
    

    感谢。

也许不是最好的解决方案,但它在test_data

中得到了你想要的东西
clean_text <- function(x){
  x <- gsub("(> .* > )Everything else in .* :", "\\1 q :", x)
  x <- gsub("\n .* Everything else in .*?\n", "", x)
  x
}
out_data <- test_data
out_data[,2] <- clean_text(test_data[,2])
out_data
             ID
1  john@xxx.com
2 sally@xxx.com
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     Changes
