How could I select the rows of a dataset that have the maximum value in one 
variable and to do this nested in another variable. It is a dataframe in long 
format with repeated measures per subject.  
I was not successful using aggregate, because one of the columns has character 
values (and/or possibly because of another reason).
I would like to transfer something like this: 
subject    time.ms  V3 
1               1       stringA
1               12      stringB
1               22      stringC
2               1       stringB
2               14      stringC
2               25      stringA
…. 
To something like this: 
subject    time.ms      V3
1               22      stringC
2               25      stringA
… 

Thank you very much for you help!
Miriam
