I'm puzzled by the following problem, which appears when
attempting to run an analysis on part of a dataset:

If I try:

  csubset <- dat$Diagnosis==0

This just creates a vector of booleans that indicate (the row numbers) for which positions in dat Diagnosis==0.


cdat <- dat[dat$Diagnosis==0,]

This OTOH, uses the above vector to index the rows of dat, indeed selecting those rows from dat that have Diagnosis==0. This is assigned to cdat. You could have done

cdat <- dat[csubset,]

as well
