\title{Determine Duplicate Elements}
\description{
  \code{duplicated2()} determines which elements of a vector or data
  frame are duplicates, and returns a logical vector indicating which
  elements (rows) are duplicates.
}
\usage{
duplicated2(x, bothWays=TRUE, \dots)
}
\arguments{
  \item{x}{a vector or a data frame or an array or \code{NULL}.}
  \item{bothWays}{if \code{TRUE} (the default), duplication should be
    considered from both sides. For more information see the argument
    \code{fromLast} to the function \code{\link{duplicated}}.}
  \item{\dots}{further arguments passed down to \code{duplicated()} and
    its methods.}
}
\details{
  The standard \code{\link{duplicated}} function (in \code{package:base})
  only returns \code{TRUE} for the second and following copies of each
  duplicated value (second-to-last and earlier when
  \code{fromLast=TRUE}).  This function returns all duplicated
  elements, including the first (last) value.

  When \code{bothWays} is \code{FALSE}, \code{duplicated2()} defaults to
  a \code{\link{duplicated}} call. When \code{bothWays} is \code{TRUE},
  the following call is being executed:
  \code{duplicated(x, \dots) | duplicated(x, fromLast=TRUE, \dots)}
}
\value{
    For a vector input, a logical vector of the same length as
    \code{x}. For a data frame, a logical vector with one element for
    each row. For a matrix or array, and when \code{MARGIN = 0}, a
    logical array with the same dimensions and dimnames.

    For more details see \code{\link{duplicated}}.
