Combine extracted data into a data frame
Extracting data like this is not as straightforward as with html_table()
. So far, you've only extracted vectors of data. Now it's time to combine them into their own data frame.
The vectors actors
, roles
, and functions
that you just extracted from the messy HTML table are still available in this exercise.
This exercise is part of the course
Web Scraping in R
Exercise instructions
- Combine the three vectors
actors
,roles
, andfunctions
into a data frame calledcast
(with columnsActor
,Role
andFunction
, respectively).
Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# Create a new data frame from the extracted vectors
cast <- tibble(
Actor = actors,
___,
___)
