Hi,
In a symmetric design one may have a data.frame with, say, two factors (two
columns), each one with n levels.
In a nested loop, to run a expression combining levels of each factors, to
produce a new data.frame, if one level is absent, the loop is interrupted;
one gets a empty object.
Is there a way to avoid or skip combinations of factors in such nested
loops?
I think that the approach below is a very crude example:
for(i in unique(DF$ID1)) #! For each ID1 level
{
for (e in unique(DF$ID2)) #! For each ID2 level
{
DF.N <- DF[DF$ID1==i & DF$ID2==e,]
if(nrow(DF.N)==0) DF2 <- ??
else
Any idea will be welcome
