Matt, Have a look at "subset" specially the examples at the end.
I use it a lot. Hope it helps, Augusto -------------------------------------------- Augusto Sanabria. MSc, PhD.

How do I extract rows that meet a certain criteria from a data frame and group them into a new data frame? For example, if I want to make a new data frame that only includes rows of data for which the p values (given by one of the columns in the data frame) are less than a certain value, how do I do this? It seems that there should be a simple function that does this. I looked into getGroups from the nmle package, but am not sure how to construct the form argument correctly or even if it's the appropriate way to tackle this. Thanks in advance of your answer, Matt ______________________________________________ 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 ______________________________________________ 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
