Dear List,
Thankyou to Jim and Marc for their help on my previous question.
I have a data frame of five columns, the first being a list of dates and the
other four columns are numeric values. I wanted to list the days where all 4
columns of values are less than in the previous row. I used the following
which works fine, except it doesnt show the dates for each row (the values
from column 1).
differences <- apply(x, 2, diff)
all.lower.diffs <- subset(differences, apply(differences, 1,
function(x){all(x<0)}
I tried using the following loop instead, but it would only apply to the
first column of every row("warning condition has length>1 and only first
element will be used"):
for ( i in 2:length(x[,1])) if (x[i,]<x[i-1,]) {print(x[i,])}
How can I resolve with either method? Any help much appreciated.
Regards,
Alf Sammassimo.
