Find duplicated rows (based on 2 columns) in Data Frame in R

Question

I have a data frame in R which looks like:

| RIC    | Date                | Open   |
|--------|---------------------|--------|
| S1A.PA | 2011-06-30 20:00:00         


        

Answer 1

If you want to remove duplicate records based on values of Columns Date and State in dataset data.frame:

#Indexes of the duplicate rows that will be removed: 
duplicate_indexes <- which(duplicated(dataset[c('Date', 'State')]),) 
duplicate_indexes 

#new_uniq will contain unique dataset without the duplicates. 
new_uniq <- dataset[!duplicated(dataset[c('Date', 'State')]),] 
View(new_uniq)
