Dear all, I have querry on how to extract the data by matching between two data set where one has the same elements multiple times? For example, I have two matrix X and Y. > X [,1] [,2] [,3] 1 A 5 P 2 B 6 P 3 C 7 P 4 D 5 Q 5 E 6 Q 6 F 7 Q 7 G 5 R 8 H 6 R 9 I 7 S 10 J 5 S 11 K 6 T 12 L 7 T and >Y [,1] 1 P 2 Q 3 R 4 S Now, I want to select and extract all the data of P, Q, R and S elements of column 3 of X matrix by matching with column 1 of Y matrix like below: > [,1] [,2] [,3] 1 A 5 P 2 B 6 P 3 C 7 P 4 D 5 Q 5 E 6 Q 6 F 7 Q 7 G 5 R 8 H 6 R 9 I 7 S 10 J 5 S I guess, the answer might be simple but i am not getting way to figure out. And, i have to select subset from very huge data set. So, i need some kinds of automated procedure. If some one can help me, it will be great Thanks in advance. Sincerely, Ram Kumar Basnet
