Hi, I have the following problem: I have a large dataframe where each row is specified by two numerical value (one 1:25 and the other one large specific number (e.g. 203043)). I have a list of 60 categories which are also assigned to one of the first numerical value (1:25) but have a range for the second numerical value (e.g. 200020 - 208040) in two different columns.
I want now to assign a category to each row in a new variable by testing for accordance to the first numerical value and overlap of the second numerical value with the range. For example: entry1 has numerical value 1 = 15 and numerical value 2 = 200050. This would be assigned to category3, which has a numerical value 1 = 15 and a range for numerical value 2 = 200000 - 201000. It would be great if any one could help me out with this. Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Assigning-entries-to-categories-tp2272697p2272697.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
