Dear Thierry,

thx for your help, this exactly what i was looking for.
For other beginners reading this: dont name your data "data". My bad dont call it like that. use "dataset" or whatever instead.

Dear Bunny,

You need to add a comma: data[data$particularcol ==1, ]

data[put here the conditions for rows, put here conditions for columns].


HTH,

Thierry

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.

The plural of anecdote is not data.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not
ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of
data.

Onderwerp: [R] indexing question

Hi all,

i have a pretty easy indexing question, at least i believe so. The
main reason i post it here, is that brackets and $ are hard to google.

How do I index correctly, if i just want to display the whole dataset
conditioned on the fact that some particular column equals one.

I know i can do something like:   data$somecolumn[data$particularcol
==1] . That will show all "some column" values where the particular
column is 1.
Unfortunately something like : data[data$particularcol ==1] does not
work to get the whole matrix.

is there some easy way except the % in % stuff ?

Thx in advance
