Guidance on how to create alternate to skimr::top_counts. - skimr::bottom_counts

[dineshj3d]

For my data management work, having a peak at the bottom counts would be just as useful as top counts. Looking for guidance how to accomplish via sfl function. Any help appreciated.

First you have to create your function bottom_counts(). Then you would add it to the sfl for factor. You could take a look at the function code for top_counts() and modify it to get the lowest.

Thank you. - will create a new function modeled on top_counts. Not sure how to call the function via sfl (have reviewed the documentation). Appreciate any pointers. Thanks again. top_counts <- function(x, max_char = 3, max_levels = 4) { counts <- sorted_count(x) if (length(counts) > max_levels) { top <- counts[seq_len(max_levels)] } else { top <- counts } top_names <- substr(names(top), 1, max_char) paste0(top_names, ": ", top, collapse = ", ") }

my_skim <- skim_with(factor = sfl(bottom_counts = bottom_counts))

From the example in the Using Skimmer vignette.

This issue is not really an issue report. The best places to get help are probably StackOverflow and Twitter (#rstats)

Understood. Thanks for the recommendation. Appreciate the help.
