Hi All,
I'm having trouble selecting rows to delete, that i can't seem to overcome.
Below is some sample data, i am trying to dedup the data based on each user,
and simultaneously the timestamp (at the side i have highlighted expected
row to be removed)
I've looked at the lag function but can't seem to make it work?
My logic ran along the lines of an ifelse statement and then remove after
that, but it doesn't seem to work? Any help appreciated
Let's call the data test
test$lag <- ifelse(test$user_id==lag(test$user_id)
& test$timestamp==lag(test$timestamp),1,0)
Can anyone help on this?
Mike
