Dear R-list,
Sorry for spamming the list lately, I am just learning the more advanced
aspects of R!
I have some data that looks like this:
Out Country1 Country 2 Country 3 ... CountryN
1 1 1 1 1
0 1 1 0 1
1 1 0 1 0
I want to create a new variable that counts the number of zeros in every
row whenever Out is equal to 1, and else it is a zero, so it would look
like this:
new_var
0
0
2
I have tried the following:
for (i in length(Out)){
if (Out == 1) {new_var <- sum(dat[i,] != 1)}
else {new_var <- 0}
}
but this gives me an error message.
Best, Thomas
