Hi,
Not sure if this is what you wanted.

?res<-do.call(rbind,lapply(lst6,function(x) do.call(rbind,x)))
?row.names(res)<-1:nrow(res)

# this combines the list of lists to a data.frame
res[1:4,]
#? firm year industry dummy dimension
#1??? 1 2000?????? 20???? 0????? 2120
#2??? 5 2000?????? 20???? 1????? 2189
#3??? 4 2000?????? 20???? 0????? 3178
#4??? 7 2000?????? 20???? 1????? 3245


#or
?res<-do.call(rbind,lapply(lst6,function(x) do.call(rbind,x)))
?res$group<-gsub("(.*\\..*)\\..*$","\\1",rownames(res))
?row.names(res)<-1:nrow(res)
?res[1:4,]
#? firm year industry dummy dimension?? group
#1??? 1 2000?????? 20???? 0????? 2120 2000.20?? #1 group
#2??? 5 2000?????? 20???? 1????? 2189 2000.20?? #1
#3??? 4 2000?????? 20???? 0????? 3178 2000.20?? #2
#4??? 7 2000?????? 20???? 1????? 3245 2000.20?? #2

Thank you very much. 
Just a little thing: how can I put it like a dataframe?

Thanks,

Cec?lia

Hi,
There could be easier ways...? I am a bit busy now to try other ways.

Hi,
May be this helps:
lst1<-split(final3,list(final3$year,final3$industry))
lst2<-lst1[lapply(lst1,nrow)>0]
lst3<-lapply(lst2,function(x) lapply(x$dimension,function(y) x[(y< (x$dimension+x$dimension*0.1)) & (y> (x$dimension-x$dimension*0.1)),]))
lst4<-lapply(lst3,function(x) x[lapply(x,nrow)==2])
lst5<-lapply(lst4,function(x)x[!duplicated(x)])
lst6<-lst5[lapply(lst5,length)>0]

Again my problem, better explained.

#I have a data panel of thousands of firms, by year and industry and
#one dummy variable that identifies one kind of firms (1 if the firm have an auditor; 0 if not)
#and another variable the represents the firm dimension (total assets in thousand of euros)
#I need to create two separated samples with the same number os firms where
#one firm in the first have a corresponding firm in the second with the same
#year, industry and dimension (the dimension doesn't need to be exatly the
#same, it could vary in an interval of +/- 10%, for example)

#My reproducible example
firm1<-sort(rep(1:10,5),decreasing=F)
year1<-rep(2000:2004,10)
industry1<-rep(20,50)
dummy1<-c(0,0,1,1,0,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1)
dimension1<-c(2120,345,2341,5678,10900,4890,2789,3412,9500,8765,4532,6593,12900,123,2345,3178,2678,6666,647,23789,
2189,4289,8543,637,23456,781,35489,2345,5754,8976,3245,1234,25,1200,2345,2765,389,23456,2367,3892,5438,37824,
23,2897,3456,7690,6022,3678,9431,2890)
data1<-data.frame(firm1,year1,industry1,dummy1,dimension1)
data1
colnames(data1)<-c("firm","year","industry","dummy","dimension")

firm2<-sort(rep(11:15,3),decreasing=F)
year2<-rep(2001:2003,5)
industry2<-rep(30,15)
dummy2<-c(0,0,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,1)
dimension2<-c(12456,781,32489,2345,5754,8976,3245,2120,345,2341,5678,10900,12900,123,2345)
data2<-data.frame(firm2,year2,industry2,dummy2,dimension2)
data2
colnames(data2)<-c("firm","year","industry","dummy","dimension")
firm3<-sort(rep(16:20,4),decreasing=F)
year3<-rep(2001:2004,5)
industry3<-rep(40,20)
dummy3<-c(0,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,0)
dimension3<-c(23456,1181,32489,2345,6754,8976,3245,1234,1288,1200,2345,2765,389,23456,2367,3892,6438,24824,
23,2897)
data3<-data.frame(firm3,year3,industry3,dummy3,dimension3)
data3

final1<-rbind(data1,data2)
final2<-rbind(final1,data3)
final2
final3<-final2[order(final2$year,final2$industry,final2$dimension),]
final3


#So my data is final3 is like this:

I want to keep couples of firms one with dummy=1 and other with dummy=0 that matchs in industry, firm and dimension.

But dimension doesn't need to be exactly the same, it is why I refer an interval of + or - 10%.

For example firm 1 matchs with firm 5, because they have the same year, industry, dimension (10% x 2120 = 212 and 2189-2120<212)
and firm 1 is dummy=0 and firm 5 is dummy=1.

So I want to delete firm 6 because it doesn't macth with any firm, and keep firm 1 and 5.

? ?  firm year industry dummy dimension
26? ? 6 2000? ? ?  20? ?  0? ? ?  781
1? ?  1 2000? ? ?  20? ?  0? ? ? 2120
21? ? 5 2000? ? ?  20? ?  1? ? ? 2189

Next,

Now I can match firm 4 with firm 7 and delete firm 8.
36? ? 8 2000? ? ?  20? ?  1? ? ? 2765
16? ? 4 2000? ? ?  20? ?  0? ? ? 3178
31? ? 7 2000? ? ?  20? ?  1? ? ? 3245

And so on...

At the end I want to keep only pairs of firms, matched by year, industry and dimension.

If I separate firms with dummy=1 from firms with dummy=0 in two separated dataframes, I have two matched samples
with the same number of observations. That's what I want.
