Hi,
I have a data-frame, r (column names below), that needs subsetting:
date, time, strain, gene, deltact
When I try to subset r by applying selection criteria on two columns
I get
an empty data frame. For example I would like to extract all rows
that have
time == 0h and strain == ROC.
So, t <- subset(r, (r$time == "0h" && r$strain == "ROC"),
At least one error is the use of && instead of &. "&&" will only
return a single value whereas "&" is the correct operator to use when
working with vectors.
select= c(time,
strain, gene, deltact)) returns an empty data-frame.
Is it not possible to subset based on two criteria?
TIA
Anjan
