I have a For loop that is quite slow and am wondering if there is a faster
option:
df <- data.frame(TreeID=rep(1:500,each=20), Age=rep(seq(1,20,1),500))
df$Height <- exp(-0.1 + 0.2*df$Age)
df$HeightGrowth <- NA #intialize with NA
for (i in 2:nrow(df))
{if(df$TreeID[i]==df$TreeID[i-1])
{df$HeightGrowth[i] <- df$Height[i]-df$Height[i-1]
}
}
