Hi all,
I am hoping to keep certain rows of my data set. These are rows whose value
in column X is equal to the value in column X for another row. For example:
1 1
2 1
3 2
4 3
5 4
6 4
>From this I would want the following:
1 1
2 1
5 4
6 4
I am struggling with the for loop. Here is what I have currently:
## where to store values
pairs.list <- data.frame(NA, nrow(data), ncol(data))
## iterating through data
for (i in 1:nn){
# check value with next value, store both
if(data$X[i]==data$X[i+1]){
pairs.list[i] <- data[i]
pairs.list[1+1] <- data[i+1]
}
# if values are different, discard the first, keep the second
else{
data <- data[which(!data[i]),]
}
}
}
Any suggestions welcome. Thank you!
