Hi all,

I dont know if match is the right approach here. I´d like to match t o data.frames. One big dataframe and one small dataframe. In SQL, wh at i want to do what only be simple relation.

The first consists of two columns a) some value b) some key that is explained in the other dataframe. What i want to do is create (cbind) both to one dataframe like:

df1:

a  b
1  2
2  3
3  2
4  2
5  1

df2:
1 class1
2 class2
3 class3


to newdf:

a b class
1 2 class2
2 3 class3
3 2 class2
...
and so forth

I have connected R to several relational databases but I dont think it´s necessary here and that there should be a simpler solution for my problem. Maybe some combination of do.call, mapply, lapply or mat ch can do the job. Unfortunately I am not really familiar with these and still keep tryin.

thx in advance for any help.

Best regards

matt
