R program questions
I am trying to get some unique combinations of two variables.
For each value of x, I would like to have this unique y value, and drop those have several y values. But several x values could share same y value.
For example,a=data.frame(x=c(1,1,2,4,5,5),y=c(2,3,3,3,6,6))
,
and I would like to get the output like:
b=data.frame(x=c(2,4,5),y=c(3,3,6))
I have tried unique()
, but it does not help this situation.
Thank you!

First we use unique
to omit repeated rows with the same x and y values (keeping only one copy of each). Any repeated x values that are left have different y values, so we want to get rid of them. We use the standard way to remove all copies of any duplicated values as in this R-FAQ.
a=data.frame(x=c(1,1,2,4,5,5),y=c(2,3,3,3,6,6))
b = unique(a)
b = b[!duplicated(b$x) & !duplicated(b$x, fromLast = TRUE), ]
b
# x y
# 3 2 3
# 4 4 3
# 5 5 6
Fans of dplyr
would probably do it like this, producing the same result.
library(dplyr)
a %>%
group_by(x) %>%
filter(n_distinct(y) == 1) %>%
distinct

filter(n == 1) %>%
