Subject: how to setdiff on lists of lists
Dear List,
I have a data structure like:
> aa
[[1]]
[1] 1 2 3
[[2]]
[1] 4 5 6
> bb
[[1]]
[1] 3
[[2]]
[1] 5
I would like to set differences between "aa" and "bb" and get as
result another list of lists like:
> res
[[1]]
[1] 1 2
[[2]]
[1] 4 6
I am trying:
lapply(aa, setdiff, bb)
but I simply get "aa" back as result. Could you please point me in the
right direction about the combination of functions that I need to
accomplish this task?
Best regards,
Simone
