This may be a simple problem, but I am looking to select a subset of rows from a dataframe that will have the same parameters as all the rows in another dataframe.
e.g. I have a 500 row dataframe with 20 columns. I want to select a subset of rows from a larger dataframe that match the distribution of values for one or more of the columns within the 500 row dataframe (i.e. within same range, but also having same mean/median and overall shape). By basic subsetting I can get a set with a similar approximate distribution to the 500 row dataset, but not highly similar, and this might be a problem for the analysis. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Select-subset-with-specific-distribution-parameters.-tp24848201p24848201.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
