Dear Helpers: I spend more than half a day to solve this problem in R: Let x be a vector of a string of 0s and 1s, such as x<-c(0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0). It can be a very long vector. How to sub vectors of 0s? In the above example, I would like get the vectors (0,0), (0,0,0,0), (0,0,0,0). I can use which(x==0) to get the index of the 0 elements, but I don't know how to get the starting indices and end indices of the subvectors. Maybe we should use which(x==1), but I don't know how. Thanks. Bob ? ? ? ?[[alternative HTML version deleted]]
