Return FALSE for duplicated NA values when using the function duplicated()
You use the argument incomparables
for the function duplicated
like this :
> duplicated(c(NA,NA,NA,1,2,2))[1] FALSE TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE TRUE> duplicated(c(NA,NA,NA,1,2,2),incomparables=NA)[1] FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE
It determines the values that cannot be compared (in this case NA
) and returns FALSE
for those values. See also ?duplicated
