从dplyr 1.0.0开始，可以使用across()函数:

df %>%
 group_by(Category) %>%
 summarise(across(Frequency, sum))

  Category Frequency
  <chr>        <int>
1 First           30
2 Second           5
3 Third           34

如果对多个变量感兴趣:

df %>%
 group_by(Category) %>%
 summarise(across(c(Frequency, Frequency2), sum))

  Category Frequency Frequency2
  <chr>        <int>      <int>
1 First           30         55
2 Second           5         29
3 Third           34        190

以及使用select helper来选择变量:

df %>%
 group_by(Category) %>%
 summarise(across(starts_with("Freq"), sum))

  Category Frequency Frequency2 Frequency3
  <chr>        <int>      <int>      <dbl>
1 First           30         55        110
2 Second           5         29         58
3 Third           34        190        380

样本数据:

df <- read.table(text = "Category Frequency Frequency2 Frequency3
                 1    First        10         10         20
                 2    First        15         30         60
                 3    First         5         15         30
                 4   Second         2          8         16
                 5    Third        14         70        140
                 6    Third        20        120        240
                 7   Second         3         21         42",
                 header = TRUE,
                 stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

library(plyr)
ddply(tbl, .(Category), summarise, sum = sum(Frequency))

library(tidyverse)

x <- data.frame(Category= c('First', 'First', 'First', 'Second', 'Third', 'Third', 'Second'), 
           Frequency = c(10, 15, 5, 2, 14, 20, 3))

count(x, Category, wt = Frequency)

可以使用rowsum函数来计算频率。

data("mtcars")
df <- mtcars
df$cyl <- as.factor(df$cyl)

头部看起来如下:

               wt    mpg    cyl
              <dbl> <dbl>   <fct>
Mazda RX4     2.620  21.0   6
Mazda RX4 Wag 2.875  21.0   6
Datsun 710    2.320  22.8   4

然后,

rowsum(df$mpg, df$cyl) #values , group

4   293.3
6   138.2
8   211.4

如果x是一个包含你的数据的数据框架，那么下面的代码将完成你想要的:

require(reshape)
recast(x, Category ~ ., fun.aggregate=sum)

当你需要在不同的列上应用不同的聚合函数(并且你必须/想要坚持以R为基底)时，我发现它非常有用(并且有效):

e.g.

假设输入如下:

DF <-                
data.frame(Categ1=factor(c('A','A','B','B','A','B','A')),
           Categ2=factor(c('X','Y','X','X','X','Y','Y')),
           Samples=c(1,2,4,3,5,6,7),
           Freq=c(10,30,45,55,80,65,50))

> DF
  Categ1 Categ2 Samples Freq
1      A      X       1   10
2      A      Y       2   30
3      B      X       4   45
4      B      X       3   55
5      A      X       5   80
6      B      Y       6   65
7      A      Y       7   50

我们要按1类和2类进行分组，并计算Freq的样本和均值。 下面是使用ave的一个可能的解决方案:

# create a copy of DF (only the grouping columns)
DF2 <- DF[,c('Categ1','Categ2')]

# add sum of Samples by Categ1,Categ2 to DF2 
# (ave repeats the sum of the group for each row in the same group)
DF2$GroupTotSamples <- ave(DF$Samples,DF2,FUN=sum)

# add mean of Freq by Categ1,Categ2 to DF2 
# (ave repeats the mean of the group for each row in the same group)
DF2$GroupAvgFreq <- ave(DF$Freq,DF2,FUN=mean)

# remove the duplicates (keep only one row for each group)
DF2 <- DF2[!duplicated(DF2),]

结果:

> DF2
  Categ1 Categ2 GroupTotSamples GroupAvgFreq
1      A      X               6           45
2      A      Y               9           40
3      B      X               7           50
6      B      Y               6           65
