Dear R users,


My data have repeating "beh" parameter : 1 or 2 - type of animal behavior
in subsequent locations. I need to assign unique number to each sequence of
locations.

My data is:


>data=data.frame(row=seq(1:10),beh=c(1,1,1,2,2,2,1,1,2,2))
>attach(data)
>data


   row beh

1    1    1

2    2    1

3    3    1

4    4    2

5    5    2

6    6    2

7    7    1

8    8    1

9    9    2

10  10    2


I need the output like this:

   row beh seq   trip.id

1    1    1   1       1

2    2    1   2       1

3    3    1   3       1

4    4    2   1       2

5    5    2   2       2

6    6    2   3       2

7    7    1   1       3

8    8    1   2       3

9    9    2   1       4
10  10   2   2      4

I managed to assign sequence numbers inside of each group:


> seq<-sequence(rle(beh)$length)

> new<-cbind(data,seq)
> new


   row beh seq

1    1    1   1

2    2    1   2

3    3    1   3

4    4    2   1

5    5    2   2

6    6    2   3

7    7    1   1

8    8    1   2

9    9    2   1

10  10   2   2



but I can’t assign the numbers to the groups (the parameter "trip.id")...  I
would appreciate any help.



Regards,



Lilia
