Hi all, I have a dataset similar to the following
Name Date Value A 1/01/2000 4 A 2/01/2000 4 A 3/01/2000 5 A 4/01/2000 4 A 5/01/2000 1 B 6/01/2000 2 B 7/01/2000 1 B 8/01/2000 1 I would like R to remove duplicates based on column 1 and 3 only. In addition, I would like R to remove duplicates based on the underlying and overlying row only. For example, for A, I would like to remove row 2 only and keep row 1, 3 and 4. I have tried: unique() and replicated(), but I do not have much success. I have also tried: dataset<-c(1,diff(dataset)!=0), but I don't know how to apply it to this multi-column situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Chris -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Remove-duplicated-rows-tp2023065p2023065.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
