Finding NAs in DF
Both versions do not do what I am looking for, as they do not differentiate where the NA is, if there is just one. My original wished for result therefore holts, but should probably be rewritten c(NA,"B","AB","A") Joh

Simpler would be: rowSums(is.na(df)) On 17/01/2011 10:13, Ivan Calandra wrote:
Hi, I hope you made a mistake in c(NA,"TWO","BOTH","ONE") because if not, I have no idea what you're looking for... But would that do? df <- data.frame(A=c(1,2,NA,NA),B=c(1,NA,NA,4)) apply(df,1, FUN=function(x) length(x[is.na(x)])) [1] 0 1 2 1 There might be better ways to do it, but it works HTH, Ivan Le 1/17/2011 11:01, Johannes Graumann a ?crit :
Hi, What is an efficient way to take this DF data.frame(A=c(1,2,NA,NA),B=c(1,NA,NA,4)) and get c(NA,"TWO","BOTH","ONE") as the result, where NA corresponds to a row without "NA"s, TWO indicates NA in the second and ONE in the first column. Thanks for any pointers. Joh
