Dear R- users, Pls help me with the following problem. I have a dataset that loooks like the following: jh<-data.frame( 'id'=seq(1,10,1), 'time0'=c(8,5,8,8,9,NA,NA,2,4,5), 'time4'=c(NA,NA,9,8,NA,2,3,2,4,5), 'time8'=c(NA,2,8,NA,5,NA,2,3,NA,4), 'sex'=c('m','f','m','m','f','f','f','m','f','m'), 'trt'=c('P','T','P','P','T','P','T','P','P','T') )
I want to re-order the data frame so that the pattern of missing values is monotone and select only monotone patterns, i.e a subset of 'jh' as follows orderjh<-data.frame( 'id'=c(3,8,10,4,9,1), 'time0'=c(8,2,5,8,4,8), 'time4'=c(9,2,5,8,4,NA), 'time8'=c(8,3,4,NA,NA,NA), 'sex'=c('m','m','m','m','f','m'), 'trt'=c('P','P','T','P','P','P') ) Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. John [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
