I noticed that I get different results when subsetting using subset, compared to subsetting using "brackets" when the subset criteria have NA's.
Here's an example #START OF EXAMPLE my_data <- 1:5 my_data my_subset_criteria <- c( F, F, T, NA, NA) my_subset_criteria #subsetting using subset returns the data where my_subset_criteria equals TRUE my_data[my_subset_criteria == T] #subsetting using brackets returns the data where my_subset_criteria equals TRUE, and also NA where my_subset_criteria is NA subset(my_data, my_subset_criteria == T) #END OF EXAMPLE This behavior is also mentioned here https://statisticaloddsandends.wordpress.com/2018/10/07/subsetting-in-the-presence-of-nas/ Q. Is this the intended behavior when subsetting with brackets?
