I have not been able to find a way to do dense rank in R
Here is an example of what I need
rank() gives the following
5 rank 1
7 rank 2
7 rank 2
9 *rank 4*
but I want
5 rank 1
7 rank 2
7 rank 2
9 *rank 3
> tst <- read.table(textConnection("5 rank 1
+ 7 rank 2
+ 7 rank 2
+ 9 rank 4"), header=FALSE)

V1 V2 V3
1 5 rank 1
2 7 rank 2
3 7 rank 2
4 9 rank 4
# Probably not the most elegant solution.

V1 V2 V3 drank
1 5 rank 1 1

3 7 rank 2 2
4 9 rank 4 3
