R insert row with mean after group of values

How to insert a new row after a group of rows with the mean of the values grouped by date ?

id   date        price
1    2022-01-01  4
2    2022-01-01  2
3    2022-01-01  2
1    2022-01-02  5
2    2022-01-02  3
3    2022-01-02  1

Desired output

id   date        price
1    2022-01-01  4
2    2022-01-01  2
3    2022-01-01  2

>Solution :

You can do this (although I can’t really understand why you would want your data in this format):

bind_rows(
  dat %>% mutate(id = as.character(id)),
  dat %>% group_by(date) %>% 
  summarize(price=mean(price)) %>% 
  mutate(id = "mean")
) %>% 
  arrange(date,id)

Output:

       id       date    price
   <char>     <IDat>    <num>
1:      1 2022-01-01 4.000000
2:      2 2022-01-01 2.000000
3:      3 2022-01-01 2.000000
4:   mean 2022-01-01 2.666667
5:      1 2022-01-02 5.000000
6:      2 2022-01-02 3.000000
7:      3 2022-01-02 1.000000
8:   mean 2022-01-02 3.000000

Perhaps better just to do this:

dat %>% group_by(date) %>% mutate(mean = mean(price))

Output:

     id date       price  mean
  <int> <date>     <int> <dbl>
1     1 2022-01-01     4  2.67
2     2 2022-01-01     2  2.67
3     3 2022-01-01     2  2.67
4     1 2022-01-02     5  3   
5     2 2022-01-02     3  3   
6     3 2022-01-02     1  3
