I guess the answer to your question is "yes". dta <- read.table( text= "A B C D 0 1 0 7 0 2 0 7 0 3 0 7 0 4 0 7 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 5 0 5 1 5 0 4 1 5 0 8 4 7 0 0 3 0 0 0 3 4 0 0 3 4 0 0 0 5 0 2 0 6 0 0 4 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 4 0 ", header=TRUE ) dtacmax <- sapply( dta, max )
followed by dta$Sum <- apply(dta,1, function(x) (sum(0!=x & x == dtacmax,na.rm=TRUE))) or dtam <- as.matrix( dta[,1:4] ) dta$Sum2 <- rowSums( !is.na(dtam) & 0!=dtam & dtam == matrix( dtacmax, ncol=ncol( dtam ), nrow=nrow( dtam ), byrow=TRUE ) ) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Newmiller The ..... .....
