You can make the status into an ordered factor: # come up with some statuses status <- sample(c('C', 'D'), 42, TRUE, c(.9, .1)) # convert them into factors, specifying that D is "more than" C status <- ordered(status, c('C', 'D')) Since the factor is ordered and can be subject to comparison like status[1] < status[2], you can now use max() on your groups. If the sample contains any 'D's, max() will return a 'D', because it's larger than any 'C's. If the sample contains only 'C's, that's the maximal value by default. -- Best regards, Ivan ________________________________ AVVISO IMPORTANTE: Questo messaggio di posta elettronica puo contenere informazioni confidenziali, pertanto e destinato solo a persone autorizzate alla ricezione.
