Subject: [R] spliting an integer

Hi there,

From the vector X of integers,

X = c(11999, 122000, 81997)

I would like to make these two vectors:

Z= c(1999, 2000, 1997)
Y =c(1 , 12 , 8)

That is, each entry of vector Z receives the four last digits 
of each entry of X, and Y receives "the rest".

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Dimitri
