Re: [R] How to find the min and max of two variables in a data frame

try this: set.seed(123) dat <- data.frame(x = round(rnorm(10)), y = round(rnorm(10))) dat$Min <- pmin(dat$x, dat$y) dat$Max <- pmax(dat$x, dat$y) dat ind <- dat$Min != dat$Max dat[ind, ] I hope it helps. Best, Dimitris kxk wrote: I have two variables in a data frame, I want to generate tw

[R] How to find the min and max of two variables in a data frame
