I have two data frames as input: > small Position 1 6 2 14 3 1 > lookup_table Start Stop Value 1 1 5 a 2 6 10 b 3 11 15 c And I want the following output: > outcome Position Value 1 6 b 2 14 c 3 1 a What is some R code that I can write to accomplish this task? Thank you, Elena [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Use findOverlaps from GenomicRanges. On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 4:06 PM, James W.

If X and Y are your data frames, the rows you want are given by library(IRanges) nearest(IRanges(X[,"Position"], width=1), IRanges(start=Y[,"Start"], end=Y[,"Stop"])) On May 6, 2014, at 3:34 PM, Elena Sorokin wrote: > I have two data frames as input: > >> small Position > 1 6 > 2 14 > 3 1 > > >> lookup_table Start Stop Value > 1 1 5 a > 2 6 10 b > 3 11 15 c > > And I want the following output: > >> outcome Position Value > 1 6 b > 2 14 c > 3 1 a > > What is some R code that I can write to accomplish this task? > > Thank you, > > Elena > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > _______________________________________________ > Bioconductor mailing list > Bioconductor at r-project.org > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioconductor > Search the archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor
