You can enforce these assumptions by sorting on multiple columns, which leads to na.locf(df1[ order(df1$ID,df1$Value), ]) On Mon, Jan 8, 2018 at 4:19 PM, Jeff Newmiller <jdnewmil at dcn.davis.ca.us> wrote:> Yes, you are right if the IDs are always sequentially-adjacent and the > first non-NA value appears in the first record for each ID. > -- > Sent from my phone.

"Enforce" is overstating it... results will differ if there are no non-NA values for a given ID, and there is a potential further discrepancy if there are multiple non-NA values.
