Given a data frame with 3 columns, I want to add a bunch of columns x_k with k running from 1 to N
df> a b c 1: 1 1 12: 1 2 13: 1 3 2
df
> a b c
1: 1 1 1
2: 1 2 1
3: 1 3 2
For each new column x_k, its value is calculated by the equation cos(2 * pi * c / k) grouped by a and b.
You can try the following in R programming:
df[, paste0("x_", 1L:N) := lapply(1L:N, function(k) cos(2 * pi * c / k)), .(a, b)]
