Question

I want to cbind two data frames and remove duplicated columns. For example:

df1 <- data.frame(var1=c('a','b','c'), var2=c(1,2,3))
df2 <- data.frame(var1=c('a','b','c'), var3=c(2,4,6))

cbind(df1,df2) #this creates a data frame in which column var1 is duplicated

I want to create a data frame with columns var1, var2 and var3, in which column var2 is not repeated.

Answer 1

merge will do that work.

try:

merge(df1, df2)
