How to keep the same order of elements as v2 for the new matrix? > v3 [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14] [1,] "a" "a" "a" "a" "a" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" [2,] "1" "1" "1" "1" "1" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" [,15] [,16] [,17] [,18] [1,] "c" "b" "b" "b" [2,] "3" "2" "2" "2"
instead of t(merge(data.frame(V2=v2), as.data.frame(v1))) [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14] V2 "a" "a" "a" "a" "a" "b" "b" "b" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" "c" V1 "1" "1" "1" "1" "1" "2" "2" "2" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" "3" [,15] [,16] [,17] [,18] V2 "c" "c" "c" "c" V1 "3" "3" "3" "3" On Wednesday, July 23, 2014 10:06 PM, Uwe Ligges <lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de> wrote: On 23.07.2014 21:16, carol white wrote: > Hi, > I have a matrix of unique elements (strings) like v1 and a vector which > contains replicated values of the 2nd column of the first matrix. > > v1 = cbind(c("1","2","3"),c("a","b","c")) > > v2 = c(rep("a",5), rep("c",10), rep("b",3)) > > How can I add a column to v2 that contains the values of the first column of > the first matrix v1 where the 2nd column of v1 matches the values of v2?
