Hi Yuan,

It is not ellegant, but may work for you..


f<-as.factor(c("a","b","a"))

f.freq<-data.frame(table(f))
f.freq

lower.freq<-2
f.freq.subset<-subset(f.freq,f.freq$Freq>=lower.freq)
f.freq.subset

f.selected<-f[f %in% f.freq.subset$f]

f.selected<-factor(f.selected)
f.selected

Best wishes,
