Hi So what do you want to do with the test variable when averaging? Did you try aggregate function? What was results?
Please real data (at least structure) and code you used.

Actually, the whole rows would have to be averaged anyways - my mistake :-) Besides the first column "name" there is one other string (chr) variable "Test" in the dataset (the rows I want to average have always the same Testvariable), the other variables are numeric or integer.

The exact code depends on what are in columns 2-39 in your data frame. If numbers, you can averege them as well. Something like dat.ag<http://dat.ag> <- aggregate(dat[,-1], list(dat$Name), mean, na.rm=TRUE) if your data frame is named dat and first column calls Name. You get new object with aggregated values for the same Name. If some columns are nonnumeric the problem gets trickier and solution strongly depends what mode are those columns and what you want to do with them when aggregating values in column 40 and 41. Show us at least structure of your data frame. ?str Regards Petr > -----Original Message----- > From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org<mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org> > [mailto:r-help-bounces@r-<mailto:r-help-bounces@r-> > project.org<http://project.org>] On Behalf Of Verena Weinbir > Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2014 2:00 PM > To: arun > Cc: r-help > Subject: Re: [R] Dataframe: Average cells of two rows and replace them > with one row > > Hey guys, > > thank you very much for your help.
