Hi everybody, I am currently quite inexperienced with R. I try to create a function that simply take a value in a dataframe, look for this value in another dataframe and copy all the row that have this value This example is a simplified version of what I am doing but it's enough to help me
listA Name NACE a 1 b 2 c 3 ListB NACE aaa bbb ccc 1 a a c 1 a a c 1 a a c 2 a a c 2 a a c 3 a a c 4 a a c 4 a a c 4 a a c The output i would like to have NACE aaa bbb ccc 1 a a c 1 a a c 1 a a c 2 a a c 2 a a c 3 a a c Code: listpeer <- function (x) { for (i in 1:length(listA$NACE)) TriNACE[i] <- subset.data.frame(ListB, NACE == NACEsample$NACE[i],) TriNACE } But the result is Warning message: In `[<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, i, value = list(NACE = c(3L, 3L, 3L : provided xx variables to replace x variables" I guess there is something wrong "TriNACE[i]", instead i should use something to add rows, but I really don't find anything ? Somebody has any clue ?
