Deleting the last value of a vector
Hi,
Try this,
snip = function(x, n=1) {
rand = sample(1:3, 1)
print(paste("using algorithm #", rand))
switch(rand,
'1' = head(x, length(x) - n),
'2' = x[ seq(1, length(x) - n) ],
'3' = x[ - seq(length(x), by=-1, length=n) ])
}
snip(1:5)
HTH, but please do read the posting guide.

Hey guys, I've search a few threads about deleting a value from a vector, but no one has addressed this question so far. I want to delete the last value from a string of values I have: r = [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ], and i want to make r2 = to [ 1, 2, 3, 4] So that r2 is just like r, except that it missing the final value.
