I'm not quite sure what you are asking, but perhaps you can confirm that it corresponds to the following, which is what you seem to mean according to your wording. You want an output which consists of the following: a random sample of 3 from the list of values of x an independent random sample of 3 from the list of values of y the list of the id values for the sampled values of x the list of the id values for the sampled values of y where the sampling is without replacement (default for "sample") If that is the case, then idx<-sample(data$id,3) idx # [1] 6 8 9 idy<-sample(data$id,3) idy # [1] 7 2 3 sampx<-data$x[idx] sampx # [1] 3 2 3 sampy<-data$y[idy] sampy # [1] 3 1 1 samples<-data.frame(sampx,sampy,idx,idy) samples # sampx sampy idx idy # 1 3 3 6 7 # 2 2 1 8 2 # 3 3 1 9 3 Best wishes, Ted. -------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: (Ted Harding) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fax-to-email: +44 (0)870 094 0861 Date: 04-Jul-06 Time: 09:30:00 ------------------------------ XFMail ------------------------------ ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
