Dear all,
I have a dataset, and I wanted to merge the rows with duplicated IDs

calculating the means or medians from the duplicate rows. I tried

are.
You might want to look at the ave function. It will calculate a
function within IDs and you can assign that as another row in the
datafrme before you exclude the duplicates.
