Subject: RE: [R] row index for max values of row groups
  
Note that the unlist(tapply()) algorithm depends on the groups column
being in order.  Here is one that works no matter how the
data frame is ordered.
  > which( with(df1, {tmp <- logical(length(groups)) ; split(tmp, groups) <- 
lapply(split(values, groups), function(x)x==max(x)) ; tmp}))
  [1]  4  8 11
  > df1[.Last.value, ]
     groups values
  4       1      2
  8       2      3
  11      3      4

Try reordering the data.frame and you get essentially the same result:
  > df1a <- df1[c(12,1,11,2,10,3,9,4,8,5,7,6),]
  > which( with(df1a, {tmp <- logical(length(groups)) ; split(tmp, groups) <- 
lapply(split(values, groups), function(x)x==max(x)) ;   tmp}))
  [1] 3 8 9
  > df1a[.Last.value, ]
     groups values
  11      3      4
  4       1      2
  8       2      3

Where unlist(tapply()) gives:
  > which(unlist(tapply(df1a$values, df1a$groups, FUN=function(x) x == max(x)), 
use.names=FALSE))
  [1]  4  6 10
  > df1a[.Last.value, ]
    groups values
  2      1      1
  3      1      1
  5      1      1

You could sort the data.frame and unsort the result from the tapply approach:

  > ord <- with(df1a, order(groups))
  > with(df1a[ord,], which(unlist(tapply(values, groups, FUN=function(x) x == 
max(x)), use.names=FALSE)[order(ord)]))
  [1] 3 8 9
  > df1a[.Last.value, ]
     groups values
  11      3      4
  4       1      2
  8       2      3

(The split()<-split() is close to what ave() does, but ave() requires that
the first argument to FUN have the same type as FUN's output but
we want a numeric input and a logical output.   Perhaps ave() could
use a new argument to handle this kind of thing.)
