It can be useful to abbreviate variable names in a data set to make them
easier to plot. This function takes in a data set and some minimum length
to abbreviate the data to.
abbreviate_vars(data, min_length = 10)
Arguments
- data
data.frame
- min_length
minimum number of characters to abbreviate down to
Value
data frame with abbreviated variable names
Examples
long_data <- data.frame(
really_really_long_name = c(NA, NA, 1:8),
very_quite_long_name = c(-1:-8, NA, NA),
this_long_name_is_something_else = c(NA, NA,
seq(from = 0, to = 1, length.out = 8))
)
vis_miss(long_data)
long_data %>% abbreviate_vars() %>% vis_miss()
