Compare two data frames
...;- d1[, c('y', 'x')]
The first dataframe d1 has more variables than d2 and the variable columns are in a different order.
So, what I want to do is compare the two frames on the variables that are common between the two. First I find the common variables between the two dataframes
common_order <- intersect(colnames(d1), colnames(d2))
Then, I have to put the variables in d2 in the same order as d1 as
d2 <- d2[, common_order]
Then, I keep only the variables in common between d1 and d2 as
d1 <- d1[, common_order]
Then, finally I can do the compare on the common variables now...
