How to find common rows between two dataframe in R?

Question

I would like to make a new data frame which only includes common rows of two separate data.frame. example:

data.frame 1

1 id300
2 id2345
3 id5456
4 i         


        

Answer 1

We can also do this with fintersect from data.table after converting the data.frame to data.table

library(data.table)
fintersect(setDT(df1), setDT(df2))
#       v1
#1:  id300
#2:   id45
#3: id5456

data

df1 <- structure(list(v1 = c("id300", "id2345", "id5456", "id33", "id45", 
"id54")), .Names = "v1", class = "data.frame", row.names = c("1", 
"2", "3", "4", "5", "6"))

df2 <- structure(list(v1 = c("id832", "id300", "id1000", "id45", "id984", 
"id5456", "id888")), .Names = "v1", class = "data.frame", row.names = c("1", 
"2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7"))
