Hi, I am trying to identify duplicate values in a column in a date frame. The duplicated function identifies the duplicate rows in the data frame but it only does this for the second record, not both records. Is there a way to mark both rows in the data frame as TRUE? dfA$dups<-duplicated(dfA$Value) dfA Site State Value dups 929 VA 73 FALSE 929 VA 73 TRUE 930 VA 76 FALSE 930 VA 76 TRUE 931 VA 74 FALSE 932 VA 75 FALSE But I would like this Site State Value dups 929 VA 73 TRUE 929 VA 73 TRUE 930 VA 76 TRUE 930 VA 76 TRUE 931 VA 74 FALSE 932 VA 75 FALSE Thank you for your replies!

Try the following. dfA <- cbind(State="VA", data.frame(Value=c(73, 73, 76, 76, 74, 75))) dfA$dups <- duplicated(dfA$Value) | duplicated(dfA$Value, fromLast=TRUE) dfA State Value dups 1 VA 73 TRUE 2 VA 73 TRUE 3 VA 76 TRUE 4 VA 76 TRUE 5 VA 74 FALSE 6 VA 75 FALSE Hope this helps.

try this: dfA$dups<-duplicated(dfA$Value) | duplicated(dfA$Value, fromLast = TRUE) On Mon, Sep 10, 2012 at 2:23 PM, kborgmann <borgmann at email.arizona.edu> wrote:> Hi, > I am trying to identify duplicate values in a column in a date frame.

Tell me what you want to do, not how you want to do it.
Hello,
Please use dput(dfA) to post your data examples. The following is it's
output. All one has to do is to copy and paste to an R session to get
the data example.
dfA <-
structure(list(Site = c(929L, 929L, 930L, 930L, 931L, 932L),
State = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L), .Label = "VA", class =
"factor"),
Value = c(73L, 73L, 76L, 76L, 74L, 75L)), .Names = c("Site",
"State", "Value"), class = "data.frame", row.names
= c(NA, -6L))
# Now use the argument 'fromLast'
dfA$dups <- duplicated(dfA) | duplicated(dfA, fromLast = TRUE)
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas
