<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">Dear All,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">Further to answers to sorting, can someone tell me how can I sort a list that contains duplicates (name) but keeping the duplicates together when sorting the values. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">e.g., a data frame with name (in duplicates), Mvalues(may be different for the duplicates)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">name M</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">1234 8</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">1234 8.3</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">4321 9</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">4321 8.1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">If I sort by M, it will be 1234, 4321, 1234, 4321 but I want to keep the duplicates together, so that it will give me 1234, 1234, 4321, 4321. I also would like to set a cut-off, so that anything below a certain values will not be sorted. Any help will be appreciated.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">On another subject, I have downloaded and installed R1.1 for NT, it seems to run fine but when I source codes that I have written for R1.0.1 for printing labels to my data points, instead of printing name as label, it printed some number that I have no idea what it represents, it is not the row number or anything else. The code I used is </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">plot(x,y, main="", xlab="x", ylab="y", type="n", ylim=c(-4,4), xlim=c(7,16))</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">points(x[d1], y[d1], pch=1,col=c(1:256))</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">points(x[d2], y[d2], pch=1,col=c(1:256))</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">up<-(abs(y)>=2)</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">if (sum(up)!=0) {</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">text(x[up],y[up], col="black",labels=name[up], cex=0.2, adj=1)}</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">What is wrong? it ran fine in R1.0.1 and it is working fine in R1.1.0 but just not taking this text command right. Any suggestion will be appreciated.</FONT></P>
