Hi, I need to repor the index of a min value of each row in a matrix, but I don't know how to do that when I have more than one min value.
Here is my example > dat <- matrix(c(5.4,4.8,5.6,4.8,NA,4.4,4.6,3.4,NA,NA,4,2.4,NA,NA,NA,2),byrow=TRUE,ncol=4) > dat [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [1,] 5.4 4.8 5.6 4.8 [2,] NA 4.4 4.6 3.4 [3,] NA NA 4.0 2.4 [4,] NA NA NA 2.0 > k <- apply(dat, 1, function(x) which(x == min(x, na.rm = TRUE))) > k [[1]] [1] 2 4 [[2]] [1] 4 [[3]] [1] 4 [[4]] [1] 4 But I need an output like this k<- 2 or 4, 4, 4, 4 Someone could help me with this issue. Thanks in advance, Marlene.
