I need to pick from a dataset those rows that have a double value set to 100.
However since the values in this column are like the following:
[1] 121.11750 89.36188 115.44320 99.44964 92.74571 107.90180
[7] 138.89310 125.14510 81.61953 95.07307 88.57700 94.85971
[13] 88.96280 114.11430 100.53410 120.41910 114.42690
…
Then can I match against 100 or 100.0? Or do I need to match against 100.00000 or something else?
E.g. does
100.0 %in% kidmomiq$mom_iq
produce a truthful match result with this kind of data (I’m getting 0 occurrences, which might be correct, but I’m not sure)?
