I have a data frame of dim 3x600. There are pairs of rows which have the exact same value in column 3.
head(df) POP1 POP2 ABSDIFF L0005.01 0.98484848 0.688118812 0.2967297 L0005.03 0.01515152 0.311881188 0.2967297 L0008.02 0.97727273 0.004424779 0.9728479 L0008.04 0.02272727 0.995575221 0.9728479 L0012.03 0.98684211 0.004385965 0.9824561 L0012.01 0.01315789 0.995614035 0.9824561 I want to unique sort on df$ABSDIFF so that only one row per pair remains in the subset. >df_subset <- df[df(!duplicated(df$ABSDIFF), ] This does not work. So I literally checked: >identical(df[1,3], df[2,3]) FALSE How is 0.2967297 different from 0.2967297? I am puzzled. Thanks for any insight.
