so want following output:

1    1 2    4 3    3 4    3 

which continues rows. thanks

your english description suggests want:

 apply( df, 1, which.min) 

but answer give not formatted vector , not correct answer if above interpretation correct. oh wait, expecting rownumbers.

 as.matrix(apply( d, 1, which.min))     [,1] 1     1 2     4 3     3 4     3 5     1 6     1 7     2 8     2 9     4 10    4 11    1 12    3 13    1 14    1 15    3 16    3 17    2 18    3 19    2 20    4
