Hi, Ana,
doesn't
udt <- unique(dt[c("chr", "pos", "gene_id")])
nrow(udt)
get close to what you want?

Hello,
I have a data frame like this:

it is very big,
dim(dt)
[1] 73719122 8
To count number of unique rows for all 3 columns: chr, pos and gene_id
I could just join those 3 columns and than count. But how would I find
unique number of rows for these 4 columns without joining them?
Thanks
Ana
