Re: [R] Getting minimum value of a column according a factor column of a dataframe

The requirements keep being clarified and it would have been very useful to know more in advance. To be clear. My earlier suggestion was based on JUST wanting the minimum for each unique version of Code. Then you wanted it in the original order so that was handled by carefully making that a

Hi Javad, In that case, just modify the function to extract the rows with both the minimum and maximum Q from each station df1<-read.table(text="Code Y M D Q N O 41003 81 1 19 0.16 7.17 2.5 41003 77 9 22 0.197 6.8 2.2 41003 79 7 28 0.21 4.7 6.2 41005 79 8 17 0.21 5.5 7.2 41005 80 10 30

Yes, Timothy, the request was not seen by all of us as the same. Indeed if the request was to show a subset of the original data consisting of only the rows that were the minimum for each Code and also showed ties, then the solution is a tad more complex. I would then do something along the lines

The order of the rows returned by summarize is controlled by the levels of the factors given to group_by. If group_by is given character columns instead of factors, it converts them to factors with the levels being the sorted unique values of the character columns. Convert you character columns

My mistake, I did not change the sort order back to the original order. If you do not like the additional variables they can be dropped using select() or dat2[,-c(RN, MinByCodeQ)] syntax. library(dplyr) library(magrittr) dat2<-read.table(text="Code Y M D Q N O 41003 81 1 19 0.16 7.17 2.5 41003

I missed where you explained how to choose a minimum value if there are several values within a group that are equal to the minimum value. Here is a dplyr code that returns eight values because there are ties for minimum values in Q. library(dplyr) library(magrittr) dat2<-read.table(text="Code

Javad, If I understood you, you want to use one of many methods to GROUP BY one column and take the minimum within each group. If your data is set up right, perhaps using factors, there are base R versions but many would also suggest using dplyr/tidyverse methods such as piping your data to
