forcats | 🐈🐈🐈🐈: tools for working with categorical variables (factors) | Data Visualization library

I have aplication which runs in parallel mode. Jobs are runing using threads with implmented subroutine. Subroutine "worker3" have three argumens, one parameter and two path for files. This subroutine execute R script using system commands.

I have followed barplot example:

I have a datatable in Shiny where I use the filter option. When I want to filter a boolean column, I can choose true and false. I would like to rename these values. So instead of true and false, it should show yes and no.

The displayed column entries are not TRUE or FALSE but checkboxes. This is important, that's why I add it to the code example.

I had the idea to convert the booleans to factors. Then the filter shows yes and no. However, in this case all checkboxes are checked, so this doesn't work. I commented out the line that does the converting in the code below. If there is a solution without this converting step it would be nice.

As I didn't find any option to change the values, I guess, this can only be accomplished with JavaScript code. Unfortunately, I am not really familiar with JavaScript. I hopse someone call help me here.

I'm trying to create multiple columns which are combinations of pairs based on another column. For example, in this reduced forcats::gss_cat dataset, there is a marital column with three values: Separated, Divorced, and Married. I'm able to create new columns like Separated_Divorced using mutate and case_when, like this:

Reduced dataset for simplicity

I'm creating a function that requires users to upload a dataset with a vector of specific characters. Under the hood, I need one column that has the vector remain character, but I also need a separate column that is identical except that that it is a factor with specific levels.

When I try using levels() to assign the levels, I assumed R would match up the strings, but it's randomly assigning the order of the levels. How do I correct this behavior? Though the specific character values will always be the same, I won't know the order that users will upload them.

I'm trying to write a distill::distill_article blogpost which requires the use of LaTeX math environments e.g. theorem, lemma, proof etc.

I have tried to follow these instructions and also these instructions but am unable to render the theorem environments whether using LaTeX blocks or rmarkdown blocks.

I also note that a similar question was asked about specifically using distill::distill_article in bookdown. This fix did not work either. Note that my use-case is to use the bookdown theorem environments inside distill::distill_article, not the other way around.

Here is a reprex for the issue:

I'm trying to figure out how step_dummy() from recipes package wrangles the data. Although there's a reference page for this function, I'm still unable to wrap my head around how to do it using "regular" tidyverse tools I know. Here's some code based on recipes and rsample packages. I would like to achieve the same data output but just using dplyr/tidyr tools.

I chose diamonds dataset from ggplot2 for this demonstration.

I'm trying to use fct_relabel() from forcats to relabel my factor to include the factor name and the number of rows situated with it, but when I use the function, it completely changes the levels that I set to the order the columns appear. How can I override this? My original names are consistent (e.g., the animal names), but the counts will vary. As a result, I can't rely on manually releveling by the new labels name, unless I can somehow do a partial match (e.g., the label name doesn't fully match but contains cat).

Any help would be much appreciated!

I apologise if this has been asked before. I am trying to add median values to the peak of a grouped density plot (example below).
