Dear R users,

As a new comer to R, I would like to create a new variable using if
statements but don't know how to do it. Basically, I have two variables
(EvHint and MinTex). I want to create a third variable called RiskTest.

In SPSS, my syntax would look like

Compute RiskTest=0.
if (EvHint=1 & MinTex=1) RiskTest=1.

Question: How do I do this with R?

My Data

EvHint<-c(0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0)
MinTex<-c(0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0)

Thanks, V
