Ordering Dataframe by vector while keeping indices
Let's say I have this dataframe named result :
id nobs
1 25 463
2 26 586
3 27 338
4 28 475
5 29 711
6 30 932
and this vector:
ord = c(30, 29, 28, 27, 26, 25)
Now I understand that I can order a dataframe according to the ord vector by doing the following:
result[match(ord, result$id),]
to get the following result:
id nobs
6 30 932
5 29 711
4 28 475
3 27 338
2 26 586
1 25 463
However, as you can see, the row indices have also been changed (6,5,4 ..). I want to keep them as before (1,2,3 ...).
How can i do this?
