[R] Aligning names with variable values

[arun]

May be this helps:
Prices.df <- read.table(text="rowID  Price
1 'Full Season' 417.95
2 'Full Season' 679.43
3 'Full Season' 839.79
4 'Half Season' 159.39
5 'Half Season' 256.93",sep="",header=TRUE,stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
upperLimit <- c(`Full Season`=779.12, `Half Season`=231.11)


rejectdf <- do.call(rbind,lapply(names(upperLimit),function(x) {x1 <- subset(Prices.df,rowID==x); indx <- with(x1,cut(Price,breaks=c(-Inf,upperLimit[x],Inf),labels=FALSE)); x1[indx>1,]}))

acceptdf <- do.call(rbind,lapply(names(upperLimit),function(x) {x1 <- subset(Prices.df,rowID==x); indx <- with(x1,cut(Price,breaks=c(-Inf,upperLimit[x],Inf),labels=FALSE)); x1[indx==1,]}))

A.K.

I wish to compare prices in a dataframe to calculated upper limits and
then reject (collect in a reject dataframe) those rows with prices that
are above the upper limit but I am having trouble aligning the variable
value in the Prices dataframe with the names in the upper limit file.

> upperLimit
  Full Season     Half Season
       779.12          231.11

> Prices.df
        rowID  Price
1 Full Season 417.95
2 Full Season 679.43
3 Full Season 839.79
4 Half Season 159.39
5 Half Season 256.93

Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated.
