Hello list, I read in a txt file using
<B<-read.table(file="data.snp",header=TRUE,row.names=NULL) by specifying the row.names=NULL so that the rows are numbered. Below is an example after how the table looks like using <B[1:10,1:3] SNP Chromosome PhysicalPosition 1 SNP_A-1909444 1 7924293 2 SNP_A-2237149 1 8173763 3 SNP_A-4303947 1 8191853 4 SNP_A-2236359 1 8323433 5 SNP_A-2205441 1 8393263 6 SNP_A-1909445 1 7924293 7 SNP_A-2237146 2 8173763 8 SNP_A-4303946 2 8191853 9 SNP_A-2236357 2 8323433 10 SNP_A-2205442 2 8393263 I am wondering if there is a way to return the start and end row numbers for a subset of rows. For example, If I specify B[,2]=1, I would like to get start=1 and end=6 if B[,2]=2, then start=7 and end=10 Is there any way in R to quickly do this? Thanks a bunch!
