Hi all, I have a matrix with 10000 rows and 10 columns. The last columns contains another identifiers but the values are not uniques so that I want to generate another matrix with rows with unique values in the last column.
If I did tmp<-unique(my_mat$col10) this will give me 8560 unique entries so the ideal matrix will be 8560X10 columns now then. I tried sub_mat<-my_mat[tmp,] but it generated weird results with many "NA" values and the order was not changed. The original matrix was ranked from top so I don't want to lose the order too. For the similar problem, I have used "match" function and do some manipulate to identify the index of the first appearance of each value but is there any better and neat way to achieve the same function?
