Finding 'first occurrence' using Match Function in R

Viewed 9317

I am new to 'R' and 'Stackoverflow' so forgive me for the incredibly basic question. I'm trying to find the 'index' of the first female in my dataset.

My overall dataset is called 'bike', so first I thought it would be a good idea to assign a new vector of just the genders...

bike$genders

Then I tried using the function:

match(1, genders)
match(F, genders)

Neither of which worked! I know this is and should be relatively simple but I'm just starting out so I really appreciate your help.
