Hello, As I am new with R I am completely stuck in resolving a, no doubt, easy problem.
I have a dataset with an enormous amount of rows and 17 columns. I need to know per trial and subject number if another variable (tt) exceeds a maximum. If this is true than the last 5000 rows of that specific trial for that subject number needs to be deleted. But I am completely stuck on how to do so. After various attempts I have finally come up with the following (which obviously does not work). if (dat["tt"]>6000 ){ return( tail(dattest[,c("Trial", "Subj" )],n=5000) <- NA } Can anybody explain what I need to do? Thank you so much! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Select-the-last-rows-of-when-specific-conditions-are-met-tp4648133.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
