Hello, Jun,

try

split(df, f = factor(df$C, exclude = NULL))

For more info see ?factor, of course.

Dear list,

Say I have a data frame with NA in the variable which I want to use as a
sorting variable for splitting the data frame.

df <- data.frame(A=1:10, B=c(rep(99,5), rep(100,5)), C=c(rep(NA,3),
rep(1,3), rep(2,4)))

split(df, f=df[c('C')], drop=FALSE), I got the output as follows. I was
hoping to retain the part of the df where C=NA. drop=FALSE doesn't seem to
take effect here. Appreciate any comments. Thanks.

$`1`
   A   B C
4 4  99 1
5 5  99 1
6 6 100 1

$`2`
     A   B C
7   7 100 2
8   8 100 2
9   9 100 2
10 10 100 2
