Hi,

Try this,

set.seed(2) # reproducible
d = matrix(sample(1:20,20), 4, 5)
d

d[ d[ ,2] == 18 , ]

You may need to test with all.equal if your values are subject to
rounding errors.

I have 20 columns of data, and in column 5 I have a value of 17600 but I
dont know which row this value is in (i have over 300,000 rows).

I'm trying to do 2 things:

1) I want to find out which row in column 5 has this number in it.

Using baptiste's setup:

> which(d[, 2]==18)
[1] 4


2) Then I want to print out that row with all the column headers so i can look at the other parameters in the row that are associated with this value.


How do i do it?
