In cheapr, ‘cheap’ means fast and memory-efficient, and that’s exactly the philosophy that cheapr aims to follow.
You can install cheapr like so:
install.packages("cheapr")
or you can install the development version of cheapr:
::install_github("NicChr/cheapr") remotes
Some common operations that cheapr can do much faster and more efficiently include:
Counting, finding, removing and replacing NA
and
scalar values
Creating factors
Creating multiple sequences in a vectorised way
Sub-setting vectors and data frames efficiently
Safe, flexible and fast greatest common divisor and lowest common multiple
Lags/leads
Lightweight integer64
support
In-memory Math (no copies, vectors updated by reference)
Summary statistics of data frame variables
Binning of continuous data
Let’s first load the required packages
library(cheapr)
library(bench)
num_na()
is a useful function to efficiently return the
number of NA
values and can be used in a variety of
problems.
Almost all the NA
handling functions in cheapr can make
use of multiple cores on your machine through openMP.

is_na
is a multi-threaded alternative to
is.na

### posixlt method is much faster

hours tz = "UTC")
sample.int(10^6, 10^5)] <- NA

It differs in 2 regards:
NA
when either that
element is an NA
value or it is a list containing only
NA
values.is_na
returns a logical vector where
TRUE
defines an empty row of only NA
values.# List example
is.na(list(NA, list(NA, NA), 10))
#> [1] TRUE FALSE FALSE
is_na(list(NA, list(NA, NA), 10))
#> [1] TRUE TRUE FALSE
# Data frame example
<- data.frame(x = c(1, NA, 3),
df y = c(NA, NA, NA))
df#> x y
#> 1 1 NA
#> 2 NA NA
#> 3 3 NA
is_na(df)
#> [1] FALSE TRUE FALSE
is_na(df)
#> [1] FALSE TRUE FALSE
# The below identity should hold
identical(is_na(df), row_na_counts(df) == ncol(df))
#> [1] TRUE
is_na
and all the NA
handling functions
fall back on calling is.na()
if no suitable method is
found. This means that custom objects like vctrs rcrds and more are
supported.

The biggest difference between sset
and [
is the way logical vectors are handled. The two main differences when
i
is a logical vector are:
NA
values are ignored, only the locations of
TRUE
values are used.i
must be the same length as x
and is not
recycled.# Examples with NAs
<- c(1, 5, NA, NA, -5)
x > 0]
x[x #> [1] 1 5 NA NA
sset(x, x > 0)
#> [1] 1 5
# Example with length(i) < length(x)
sset(x, TRUE)
#> Error in check_length(i, length(x)): i must have length 5
# This is equivalent
TRUE]
x[#> [1] 1 5 NA NA -5

sset(x)

As an example, to create 3 sequences with different increments,
the usual approach might be to use lapply to loop through the increment
values together with seq()
# Base R
<- c(1, 0.5, 0.1)
increments <- 1
start <- 5
end unlist(lapply(increments, \(x) seq(start, end, x)))
#> [1] 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4
#> [20] 1.5 1.6 1.7 1.8 1.9 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5 2.6 2.7 2.8 2.9 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3
#> [39] 3.4 3.5 3.6 3.7 3.8 3.9 4.0 4.1 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5 4.6 4.7 4.8 4.9 5.0
In cheapr you can use seq_()
which accepts vector
arguments.
seq_(start, end, increments)
#> [1] 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4

#> [39] 3.4 3.5 3.6 3.7 3.8 3.9 4.0 4.1 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5 4.6 4.7 4.8 4.9 5.0
Use add_id = TRUE
to label the individual sequences.
seq_(start, end, increments, add_id = TRUE)
#> 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3
#> 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5

If you know the sizes of your sequences beforehand, use
sequence_()
<- c(3, 5, 10)
seq_sizes sequence_(seq_sizes, from = 0, by = 1/3, add_id = TRUE) |>
enframe_()
#> # A tibble: 18 × 2

#> 3 1 0.667

#> 14 3 1.67
#> 15 3 2
#> 16 3 2.33
#> 17 3 2.67
#> 18 3 3
You can also calculate the sequence sizes using
seq_size()
seq_size(start, end, increments)
