[R] dataframe help

[David Winsemius]

Not sure that solution properly focuses the unique function on the  
first column, and even when I tried to do so, my code using did not  
produce what I expected. The unique function does not return a logical  
vector.

Try:
ships[!duplicated(ships$type), ]

And Rajasekaramya, please include code that creates the test data next  
time.
