Removing Duplicate Combinations Across Columns in Data Frames Using R
Removing Duplicate Combinations Across Columns ===================================================== In this article, we’ll explore how to remove duplicate combinations across columns in a data frame. We’ll discuss two approaches: using the apply function with sorting and transposing, and using the duplicated function with pmin and pmax. Problem Statement Suppose we have a data frame like this: [,1] [,2] [1,] "a" "b" [2,] "a" "c" [3,] "a" "d" [5,] "b" "c" [6,] "b" "d" [9,] "c" "d" We want to remove duplicates in the sense of across columns.
