I would use pkg:plyr, but just to show how
versatile R is:
ind <- cumsum(rle(as.numeric(dat$Name))$lengths)
dat[ind, ]
where I'm assuming that your data frame is
called 'dat'.

Dear Jeff,
Here is a suggestion using tapply:
data.frame(last = with(x, tapply(Value, Name, function(x) x[length(x)])))
See ?tapply for more information.

The data frame is as follows
Name Value
A 1
A 2
A 3
B 4
B 8
C 2
D 3
by(dfname$Value, dfname$Name, tail, 1) #which gets you a list
Or:
aggregate(dfname$Value, list(dfname$N
Hi,
You could try plyr,
library(plyr)
ddply(d,.(Name), tail,1)
Name Value
1A 3
2B 8
3C 2
4D 3

Hi,
I would like to extract the last row of each group in a data frame.
The data frame is as follows
Name Value
A 1
A 2
A 3
B 4
B 8
C 2
D 3
I would like to get a data frame as
Name Value
A 3
B 8
C 2
D 3
Thank you for your suggestions in advance
Jeff
