Depending what you really want to achieve, the following may be useful or
educational:
dat$ID2x <- with( dat, ave( rep( 1, nrow( dat ) ), ID, USE, FUN=cumsum ) )
dat$ID2y <- dat$ID2x
dat$ID2y[ dat$USE != "001" ] <- NA

Hi,
Try:
dat$ID2 <- with(dat,ave(seq_along(USE),ID,FUN=function(x){x1 <- USE[x] =='001';
ifelse(!x1,'',cumsum(x1))}))

Dear R community;
I'm kind of stuck with the following situation and would appreciate any
hint. Let's assume I have the following data frame:
dat <- data.frame(ID = c(rep("01",18), rep("02",16)), USE = c(c("001","004",
"005","007","001","004","005","007","012","001","004","005","007","001","004",
"005","007","012"),c("004","005","007","013","001","004","005","007","001","004",
"005","007","001","004","005","007")),ID2 = "")
What I would like to achieve is to number all the "001" occurrences in USE
for each ID individually and store them in ID2. In other words, something
like this:
ID USE ID2
1 01 001 1
2 01 004
3 01 005
4 01 007
5 01 001 2
6 01 004
7 01 005
8 01 007
9 01 012
10 01 001 3
11 01 004
12 01 005
13 01 007
14 01 001 4
15 01 004
16 01 005
17 01 007
18 01 012
19 02 004
20 02 005
21 02 007
22 02 013
23 02 001 1
24 02 004
25 02 005
26 02 007
27 02 001 2
28 02 004
29 02 005
30 02 007
31 02 001 3
32 02 004
33 02 005
34 02 007
Thanks again,
Pedro
