Apply transformations to an arbitrary number of columns.

Source: R/utility-functions.R
transform_columns.Rd

This function takes a named list of purr-style lambdas where names are the names of the columns in the data frame that must be transformed. NOTE: the columns are overridden, not appended.

Usage

transform_columns(df, transf_list)

Arguments

df

The data frame on which transformations should be operated

transf_list

A named list of purrr-style lambdas, where names are column names the function should be applied to.

Value

A data frame with transformed columns

Details

Lambdas provided in input must be transformations, aka functions that take in input a vector and return a vector of the same length as the input.

If the input transformation list contains column names that are not present in the input data frame, they are simply ignored.
