Hi Gianni,

From the example it seems like you want to check if value1 is duplicated, not Id:
> my.df[!duplicated(my.df$value1),]
You can also remove duplicated rows based on the values of more than one column:
> my.df[!duplicated(my.df[,c("Id","value1")]),]
Does any of these do what you want?

Cheers,
Jon

Dear Reseacher,
i need to resolve the following problem. I wish to delete duplicate row from
a data.frame but not all duplicate row:


ex:

my.df<- data.frame(Id=c(1,2,3,4,5,5,6,7,8,8,8,9),
value1=c(10,20,30,40,50,50,60,70,80,80,81,90),
value2=c(100,200,300,400,500,500,600,700,800,800,799,900))


my.df
    Id value1 value2
1   1     10    100
2   2     20    200
3   3     30    300
4   4     40    400
5   5     50    500
6   5     50    500
7   6     60    600
8   7     70    700
9   8     80    800
10  8     80    800
11  8     81    799
12  9     90    900


eliminate

my.df
    Id value1 value2
1   1     10    100
2   2     20    200
3   3     30    300
4   4     40    400
5   5     50    500
7   6     60    600
8   7     70    700
9   8     80    800
11  8     81    799
12  9     90    900

but if I use

xx<-  my.df[!duplicated( my.df$Id), ]

my result is

xx
    Id value1 value2
1   1     10    100
2   2     20    200
3   3     30    300
4   4     40    400
5   5     50    500
7   6     60    600
8   7     70    700
9   8     80    800
12  9     90    900


thanks in advance
Gianni
