1. Thank you for the clear reproducible example. This made it easy to
see what you wanted and provide an answer. Hopefully a correct one!
2. Many ways to do this. Here's one, but others may be better.
Step1: First greate a grouping factor for Nom to group the separate
row labels into the logical groups you have specified:
grp <- factor(substring(df1$Nom,1,1))
Note that you may need to use regular expressions or some other method
to do this if your naming system is more complex than you have shown.
Step 2: Create your new structure:
df2 <- df1
df2[,-1]<-lapply(df1[-1],function(x)ave(x,grp,FUN=max))
HTH.
Cheers,
Bert
