[R] Deleting multiple rows from a data matrix based on exp value

Without a reproducible example this is just a guess, but try
Matrix[apply(Matrix, 1, function(x) any(x > 1.11)), ]
This will retain all rows of Matrix where at least one value in a row
is above the threshold 1.11. If that doesn't do what you want, please
provide a small reproducible example and a clearer statement of the
desired output. It's not at all clear to me what 'exp. values' means -
I can devise at least three meanings off the top of my head, none of
which may conform to what you mean.
