Hi I have 3 dataframes, a,b,c with 0/1 values...i have to check a condition for dataframe a and b and then input the rows ids to datframe c . In the if condition, I AND the 2 rows of from a and b and then see if the result is equal to one of them. I have done this using a for loop, however, it takes a long time to execute with larger dataset..Can you help me do it using apply function so that i can do it faster?
a V1.x V2.x V3.x V1.y V2.y V3.y 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 2 1 0 1 1 0 1 3 1 1 1 1 0 1 4 0 0 0 1 0 1 b V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 2 1 0 1 0 0 0 c x y 1 2 1 2 2 2 3 3 1 4 3 2 for(i in 1:nrow(a)){ for(j in 1:nrow(b)){ if(all((a[i,]&b[j,])==b[j,])) { c[nrow(c)+1, ]<-c(paste(i,j) } } } Thanks, Neha [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
