Securities earning covariance
Good morning,
I am a new R user and I am trying to learn how to use it.
I am trying to solve this problem.
I have a dataframe df of daily securities (for a year) earnings as
follows:
SEC_ID DAY EARNING
IT0000001 20070101 5.467
IT0000001 20070102 5.456
IT0000001 20070103 4.954
IT0000001 20070104 3.456

Subsetting to unique values
I want to take the first row of each unique ID value from a data frame.
For instance
> ddTable <-
data.frame(Id=c(1,1,2,2),name=c("Paul","Joe","Bob","Larry"))
I want a dataset that is
Id Name
1 Paul
2 Bob
> unique(ddTable)
Will give me all 4 rows, and
> unique(ddTable$Id)
Will give me c(1,2), but not accompanied by the name column.
