Howdy y'all,
I am looking to use the match function to match a data attribute to another data frame but i need it to do so on two criteria to ensure an appropriate match. The following matches incorrectly. I know the example looks pointless but its just an example. Perhaps there is another way of doing this? Thanks #Sample Data Props<-c("p754921","p754921" ,"p754921","p75506" ,"p75506" ,"p75506","p75506" ,"p75508","p75508","p75508","p75508","p75508") TAZ<-c(38,37,37,171,171,282,171,46,46,169,169,169) Area<-c(109828.04, 128134.71, 46469.57, 37160.21, 40080.50,344679.66,16972.28, 342309.558, 260906.870, 17014.659, 7285.706, 10936.316) #Creat 1st dataframe TazProperties..<-data.frame(Props,TAZ,Area) #Sample Data Props2<-c("p754921","p754921","p754921","p75506" ,"p75506" ,"p75506","p75506" ,"p75508","p75508","p75508","p75508","p75508") TAZ2<-c(38,37,37,171,171,282,171,46,46,169,169,169) #Create 2nd data frame TazProperties2..<-data.frame(Props2,TAZ2) #match on prop and return area to data frame TazProperties2..$Area<-TazProperties..$Area[match(TazProperties..$Props,TazProperties..$Props)] -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/matching-on-two-criteria-tp1565265p1565265.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.
