Hi, folks,

Finally Friday~~  Here comes the question:

x=c('germany','poor italy','usa','england','poor italy','japan')
y=c('Spain','germany','usa','brazil','england','chile')
s=1:6
z=3:8
test=data.frame(x,y,s,z)

#Now I only concern the countries ('germany','england','brazil'). I would
like to keep the rows where these three countries
#are involved either in test$x OR test$y. So the result should be like as
follows (I did this manually >< ):

        x                y   s z
1    germany   Spain 1 3
2 poor italy germany 2 4
3    england  Brazil 4 6
4 poor italy england 5 7

Any codes work for this?

Thanks great in advance.
