R删除数据框中的多个文本字符串

Question

R 新手。我希望从数据框中删除某些单词。由于有多个单词，我想将这个单词列表定义为一个字符串，并使用 gsub 删除。然后转换回数据帧并保持相同的结构。

wordstoremove <- c("ai", "computing", "ulitzer", "ibm", "privacy", "cognitive")

a
id                text time      username          
 1     "ai and x"        10     "me"          
 2     "and computing"   5      "you"         
 3     "nothing"         15     "everyone"     
 4     "ibm privacy"     0      "know"        

我在想这样的事情:

a2 <- apply(a, 1, gsub(wordstoremove, "", a)

但显然这不起作用，在转换回数据框之前。

Answer 1

wordstoremove <- c("ai", "computing", "ulitzer", "ibm", "privacy", "cognitive")

(dat <- read.table(header = TRUE, text = 'id text time username
1 "ai and x" 10 "me"
2 "and computing" 5 "you"
3 "nothing" 15 "everyone"
4 "ibm privacy" 0 "know"'))

#   id          text time username
# 1  1      ai and x   10       me
# 2  2 and computing    5      you
# 3  3       nothing   15 everyone
# 4  4   ibm privacy    0     know

(dat1 <- as.data.frame(sapply(dat, function(x) 
  gsub(paste(wordstoremove, collapse = '|'), '', x))))

#   id    text time username
# 1  1   and x   10       me
# 2  2    and     5      you
# 3  3 nothing   15 everyone
# 4  4            0     know
