Hi Peter, assume your list is in dat. The we can count the occurrence of any raw by: co= Count[t1, #] & /@ dat We may print the rawas in different colors: MapThread[Print[Style[#1, If[#2 == 1, Black, Red]]] &, {dat, co}, 1]; hope this helps, Daniel King, Peter R wrote: > I have a table of values > > e.g.{{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, {1, 4, 6, 2, 8, 3, 7, 5}, {1, 4, 2, 6, 3, > 8, 5, 7}, {1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 7, 6, 8}, {1, 3, 5, 2, 7, 4, 8, 6}, {1, 2, > 4, 3, 6, 5, 8, 7}, {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}} > > and want to check if any rows are identical (so there are none in the above= > - I can remove last or first row which are supposed to be the same). > > But in the following {{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, {1, 4, 6, 2, 8, 3, 7, 5}, {= > 1, 4, 2, 6, 3, > 8, 5, 7}, {1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 7, 6, 8}, {1, 3, 5, 2, 7, 4, 8, 6}, {1, 8, > 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2}, {1, 8, 6, 7, 4, 5, 2, 3}, {1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 7, 6, > 8}, {1, 3, 5, 2, 7, 4, 8, 6},....} > > there is a pair {1, 3, 2, 5, 4, 7, 6, > 8}, {1, 3, 5, 2, 7, 4, 8, 6} which are the same. > > In an ideal world when I print out (in say TableForm) the repeated rows ca= > n be printed in red (or some specified colour) > > These rows are permutations if that makes any difference.
