I would like to merge two data frames, A and B based on two variables - Quarter and Geography, since observations in the data frames only take a unique value based on these two variables. When using the merge function, how would you write out merging based on when two variables take the same value (i.e., both Quarter = 1 and Geography = Urban)?
merged_dataframe <-merge(df_A, fr_B, by .x = "Quarter", by.y = "Quarter")
Data frame A:
Year Quarter Geography
2020 1 All
2020 1 Urban
2020 1 Rural
2020 2 All
2020 2 Urban
2020 2 Rural
Data frame B:
Year Quarter Geography
2021 1 All
2021 1 Urban
2021 1 Rural
2021 2 All
2021 2 Urban
2021 2 Rural
