How to create a consecutive group number

Question

I have a data frame (all_data) in which I have a list of sites (1... to n) and their scores e.g.

  site  score
     1    10
     1    11  
              


        

Answer 1

Another way to do it. That I think is easy to get even when you know little about R:

library(dplyr)
df <- data.frame('site' = c(1, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 8, 8, 8))
df <- mutate(df, 'number' = cumsum(site != lag(site, default=-1)))
