I think that title makes sense... I hope it does... I have a data frame, one of the columns of which is a factor. I want the rows of data that correspond to the level in that factor which occurs the most times.
I can get a list by doing: by(data,data$pattern,subset) And go through each element of the list counting the rows, to find the maximum.... BUT I can't help thinking there's a more elegant way of doing this.... The second part is figuring out the rows which have the maximum number of consecutive patterns which are the same... Now that I would love some help with... :-) Thanks Mick ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
