Hi,

'unique' or its combination with 'match' if you need to keep the vector 
the same length will do it:

  a-c(1,2,4,2,5,5,6,7,8)
  unique(a)
[1] 1 2 4 5 6 7 8

  a[ which( is.na( match(1:length(a), match(unique(a),a)) ) ) ]=NA
  a
[1]  1  2  4 NA  5 NA  6  7  8
This is probably not the best implementation, but it does the job.

'table' will also give you the number of occurances of unique values:

  a-c(1,2,4,2,5,5,6,7,8)
  table(a)
a
1 2 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 1 2 1 1 1
