How to split data into training/testing sets using sample function

Question

I\'ve just started using R and I\'m not sure how to incorporate my dataset with the following sample code:

sample(x, size, replace = FALSE, prob = NULL)
         


        

Answer 1

This is almost the same code, but in more nice look

bound <- floor((nrow(df)/4)*3)         #define % of training and test set

df <- df[sample(nrow(df)), ]           #sample rows 
df.train <- df[1:bound, ]              #get training set
df.test <- df[(bound+1):nrow(df), ]    #get test set
