Hi to anyone who is willing to help,
I have a csv. file which has 1999 horses as the rows and the age(in years) of the horse at each race as columns. Ive read this file into R and called it 'horses'.
Im trying to find the longest break between each race in the horse's first year of racing. I already have a numeric called 'age.first' which is the age at which each horse had its first race. I understand if i want to look at the breaks a year from the first race i have to add +1. But i am not sure how to write the code into R. Can anyone help me get the longest break in the first year of racing for each horse?
