HI, Sorry, there was a mistake. I forgot to add some code. Try this: dat1<-read.table(text=" a b c d x 3 6 7 6 y 7 8 6 5 z 5 4 7 8 ",sep="",header=TRUE)
new1<-sapply(combn(dat1[,1:4],2),`[`,1:3) colnames(new1)<-sapply(combn(colnames(dat1),2),`[`,1) new2<-as.matrix(new1) dim(new2)<-c(3,2,6) list1<-do.call(list,lapply(1:dim(new2)[3],function(i) new2[,,i])) reslist1<-lapply(list1,function(x) apply(x,1,function(x) ifelse(min(x[1],x[2])>5,1,0))) names(reslist1)<-c("ab","ac","ad","bc","bd","cd") res<-data.frame(counts=apply(do.call(cbind,reslist1),1,sum)) row.names(res)<-row.names(dat1) res # counts #x 3 #y 3 #z 1 A.K. ----- Original Message ----- From: David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net> To: priya <jaggari_...@yahoo.co.in> Cc: r-help@r-project.org Sent: Monday, September 10, 2012 2:03 PM Subject: Re: [R] pairwise comparisions On Sep 10, 2012, at 7:00 AM, priya wrote: > Hi , > I am new to R . How new? Is this still in a file? ... or has it been imported to an R object. If it really still is in a file, then Bert's suggestion of first reading "Intro to R" rather than posting to R help is on point. If it is an R object, you _should_ have used dput(head(obj)) to provide an appropriate test case for solutions. > I am facing difficulty how to make pairwise comparisions. > For example.

To get pairwise combinations try: CX <- combn( colnames(X), 2) That's going to be a 2 row character matrix. Perhaps this will work but since you provide not example it will remain untested. apply(CX, 2, function(comb), pmin(X[, comb[1]], X[, comb[2]] ) ) > For instance ,looking at first row, for x i need to look for ab values and > take the min(3,6) >5 ,if its satistfies the count should be noted, (now > count is 0), bc values ,min(6,7) >5 ,count for x =1 etc. Likewise all the > comparisons are made and count is noted for x,y,z. > Is there any function to make pairwise comparisions in R or any easy way to > do this? > Any help is greatly appreciated. -- David Winsemius, MD Alameda, CA, USA ______________________________________________ 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. ______________________________________________ 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.
