Hi, all, I have a little problem to solve. I'd like to collapse rows which are next to each other but have same value to one row. The following is an example. say x is a data frame like: X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 a 1 0 0 0 1 b 1 0 1 0 1 c 1 0 0 0 1 d 1 0 0 0 1 e 1 0 0 0 1 f 1 1 0 0 1 g 1 1 0 0 1 notice that a, c,d,e are the same. since c,d,e are next to each other, I will only use the middle one,i.e d. I will also keep a although it is the same as d. f,g , I will keep f or g. so the ideal output is: a 1 0 0 0 1 b 1 0 1 0 1 d 1 0 0 0 1 f 1 1 0 0 1 Any idea how to do it? Thanks!! Y. Fan by the way, unique(x) does not give me the desired output: it remove c,d,e X1 X2 X3 X4 X5 a 1 0 0 0 1 b 1 0 1 0 1 f 1 1 0 0 1 -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
