Dear Vanessa,
Glad to know that it works.
Sorry, I misunderstood ur question initially because there were no duplicates 
for "product" from response=="buy" in your initial dataset (tt).
Regarding the code: what i did in brief is:
1. Find the rows with response=="buy
 indx<- which(dat[,colName]=="buy")  #in fun1()
dat[,newColumn]<-0 #created a newcolumn with 0's
2.  Loop over these `indx` using lapply()
3. Checked some conditions:
  a. if(i==length(indx)) #means if it is the last element in indx or the last 
row with response=="buy"
    seq(indx[i], nrow(dat)) # here I wanted to get the sequence from the last 
indx to the last  row of dataframe
   #for example.

  indx<-which(tt1$response=="buy")
 indx
# [1]  3  5  8 10 11 13 14 18 19 20 22
 nrow(tt1)
#[1] 22
seq(indx[length(indx)],nrow(tt1))
#[1] 22
#this could change depending upon the two values.
seq(20,22) #if the last indx with response=="buy" was in 20th row
#[1] 20 21 22

b. the second condition occurs when you have consecutive "buy" rows
 else if((indx[i+1]-indx[i])==1){
indx
# [1]  3  5  8 10 11 13 14 18 19 20 22
indx[5]-indx[4] # or
indx[7]-indx[6] #or
indx[9]-indx[8] etc..
then I would want that indx[i] value in the loop

c. if it is other cases:
indx[1], indx[2]
seq(indx[1]+1, indx[1+1]-1)
#[1] 4
4. x2<- dat[unique(c(indx[i:1],x1)),] ### this was a bug in the function which 
troubled me.
it should be
x2<- dat[unique(c(indx[1:i],x1)),] #this is what I was looking for.  It created 
a problem which I fixed using
x4New<- #  
x2 ## gives me all the rows starting from the 1st row of response=="buy" to 
that row of response=="buy" according to the indx + the rows that are between 
two indx values
For indx[1], it should be row 4 because indx[2] is 5.
likewise for indx[2], it is
seq(indx[2]+1, indx[2+1]-1)
#[1] 6 7

5. Subset the data `x2` into x3 and x4 which have response=="sample" and 
response=="buy" respectively
6. x4New <- # because of a previous mistake by me.  It is still needed as an 
additional check
7. x5<- # it checks the duplicated rows for product in x4New
8. x6<- #here, a condition was used because some list elements have 0 rows for 
x3.  I guess it occurs when you have consecutive "buy" rows.
9. sort(as.numeric(c(x5,x6))) #concatentate and sorted these
10. unique(unlist(.... #unlist the list and choose only the unique elements
11. dat[unique(unlist(....,newColumn]<-1 # assign those rows that fits the 
condition in newColumn as 1.

Hope it helps.
Regards,
A.K.

Dear Arun,,

Thank you very much. the code really works.

I was wondering if you could explain how the code works.
I am really interested in R, and I really want to master it 

I will really appreciate it, but please, if you think this is too much to ask, 
please just ignore it.

Thank you very much in advance,
Best Regards,Vanessa
