Return row number(s) for a particular value in a column in a dataframe
Use which(mydata_2$height_chad1 == 2585)
Short example
df <- data.frame(x = c(1,1,2,3,4,5,6,3),
y = c(5,4,6,7,8,3,2,4))
df
x y
1 1 5
2 1 4
3 2 6
4 3 7
5 4 8
6 5 3
7 6 2
8 3 4
which(df$x == 3)
[1] 4 8
length(which(df$x == 3))
[1] 2
count(df, vars = "x")
x freq
1 1 2
2 2 1
3 3 2
4 4 1
5 5 1
6 6 1
df[which(df$x == 3),]
x y
4 3 7
8 3 4
As Matt Weller pointed out, you can use the length function.
The count function in plyr can be used to return the count of each unique column value.
which(df==my.val, arr.ind=TRUE)
