我有一个相当大的 data.table，我想创建一个新列，根据当前行中定义的过滤器搜索同一 data.table 的不同行。
参见下面的示例：
library(data.table)
dt<-data.table(a=seq.Date(as.Date("2023-11-01"), as.Date("2023-11-30"), by="day"),
b=c(1:27, 46, 34, 101))
dt$a_m1<-c(seq.Date(as.Date("2023-11-16"), as.Date("2023-11-30"), by="day"), seq.Date(as.Date("2023-11-01"), as.Date("2023-11-15"), by="day"))
a b a_m1

非常感谢您的帮助。 我尝试过如下代码：
dt[,b_m1:=dt[a_m1==dt$a]$b,]
但是没有效果。
我想你想要一个自加入作业。
dt[dt, b_m1 := i.b, on = .(a == a_m1)]
# a b a_m1 b_m1
