Mapping your data
In combination with mutate(),
you can use map()
to append the results of your calculation to a data frame. Since the map()
function always returns a vector of lists you must use unnest()
to extract this information into a numeric vector.
Here you will explore this functionality by calculating the mean population of each country in the gapminder
dataset.

Instrucciones del ejercicio
- Use
map()
to apply themean()
function to calculate the population mean for each country and append this new list column calledmean_pop
usingmutate()
. - Explore the first 6 rows of
pop_nested
. - Use
unnest()
to convert themean_pop
list into a numeric column and save this as thepop_mean
data frame. - Explore
pop_mean
usinghead()
.
Ejercicio interactivo práctico
Prueba este ejercicio y completa el código de muestra.
# Calculate the mean population for each country
pop_nested <- gap_nested %>%
mutate(mean_pop = map(___, ~mean(.x$___)))
# Take a look at pop_nested
head(___)
# Extract the mean_pop value by using unnest
pop_mean <- pop_nested %>%
unnest(___)
# Take a look at pop_mean
head(___)
