counting values with some conditions in a simulation
A) you need to reply-all to keep the discussion on the mailing list.
B) you need to post in plain text.
C) this has the arbitrary smell of homework. This is not a homework help line.
D) You are overwriting your accumulation variable "sumt" after each test. Since you are not handling this calculation in a vectorized manner, I suggest you use the "if ... else ... else" syntax to accomplish this. See the help for "if".

Sorry, I forgot to include my code. Here is what I am trying to do.
rep=10
results<-numeric(rep)
x<- data.frame(matrix(runif(10*15),15))
y<- data.frame(matrix(runif(10*15),15))
for (i in c(1:rep)){
st<-data.frame(y=c(x[,i],y[,i]),samp=factor(c(rep("X",15),rep("Y",15))))
stt<-st[order(st[,1]),]
dt<-stt[1:30,]
r<-as.vector( dt$samp)
tt<-rle(r)$lengths[rle(r)$values == "X"]
sumt<-sum(tt[1:3])
sumt[sumt <=3] <- 0
sumt[sumt>3]<- 1
sums<-as.numeric(sumt)
results[i] <- sums
}
xx<-as.vector(results)
sum(xx)
This was the original code I had, before I was just counting how many
will
give me a sum more than 3. Now, I want to show that if sumt<3 then 0,
if
sum>3 then 1, if sum=3, then generate a random number from uniform
distribution, if this number is say less than 0.5 then it's 1, if
greater
than 0.5, then it's 0.
Thank you very much for your help.

Dear R users, I am running simulations (1000), and in my simulation I am looking
at
specific sums. For example, if the sum is >=4 then count this, if
say
<3, then don't count, if the sum=3, then generate a random number from uniform distribution, if this number is say less than 0.5, then count this
sum,
if greater than 0.5, then don't count. I am having trouble with introducing this uniform number and decide whether to count 3 or not. Any help
or
hint
will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much in advance
