Hi, Suppose I have a data.frame like this
Lines <- "var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 var6 0 2 1 2 0 0 2 3 7 6 0 1 1.5 4 9 9 6 0 1.0 6 10 22 3 3 " DF <- read.table(textConnection(Lines), skip=1) names(DF) <- scan(textConnection(Lines), what = "", nlines = 1) How do I find the name of the variable which has the maximum value of the data.frame? In this example the answer is "var3" (22).
