ifelse reformulation

Hi,

Did you mean this?
group1<-c(40,50,"60",70)
#or
group2<-c(50,"var1","var2",60)

In either of the above cases, when you check
str(group1) # all are converted to character.
# chr [1:4] "40" "50" "60" "70"

?str(group2)
# chr [1:4] "50" "var1" "var2" "60"

Suppose, I am comparing the test1 dataset (x4: x6 columns) with group2
?apply(test1,1,function(x) ifelse(x[5:7]%in%group2,0,1)) # 2nd row is 50 for x4 column
?? #? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
#[1,] 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1? 1? 1? 1? 1? 1? 1
#[2,] 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1? 1? 1? 1? 1? 1? 1
#[3,] 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1? 1? 1? 1? 1? 1? 1

# final result
as.vector(apply(test1,1,function(x) ifelse(any(x[5:7]%in%group2),0,1)))
# [1] 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

I guess it works.

BTW, in my previous reply, I made a mistake
as.vector(apply(test1,1,function(x) ifelse(any(x[4:6]%in%group),0,1)))? 
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ^^^^^^^ 
It should be 5:7.
group<-c(40,50,60,70)
as.vector(apply(test1,1,function(x) ifelse(any(x[5:7]%in%group),0,1)))
?#[1] 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1

ifelse(test1$x4==40|test1$x4==50|test1$x4==60|test1$x4==70|test1$x5==40|test1$x5==50|test1$x5==60|test1$x5==70|test1$x6==40|test1$x6==50|test1$x6==60|test1$x7==70,0,1)
# [1] 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1

?as.vector(apply(test1,1,function(x) ifelse(any(x[5:7]==40|x[5:7]==50|x[5:7]==60|x[5:7]==70),0,1)))
?#[1] 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1

Arun, thank you very much... but a new problem arose...

What if... in the variable group that i want to compare, there is numeric
and non numeric types?

Or, if you think its better, can i have two variables, one numeric and one
non numeric, and made the comparision?

Best regards,

Bruno

HI,
Try this:
test1<-read.table(text="

count40
? #[1] 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1
#if you want to get the same result,
? apply(test1,1,function(x) ifelse(any(x==40),0,1))
# 1? 2? 3? 4? 5? 6? 7? 8? 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
