Hi,
Try this:
z1<-c(z,z,z,z,z)
?ifelse(z1>14,x,y)
#[1] 1 2 3 4 5
A.K.

Subject: [R] Help on numerical object and ifelse function

Dear All,
?
this is probably an easy one but I can not get a handle on it:
?
x <-c(1,2,3,4,5)
y <-c(6,7,8,9,10)
z <-15
w <-ifelse(z>14,x,y)
?
this will give me a value of 1 for w. What I would like to get is the whole string of x, so that w would become a numeric object of 5 characters exactly the same as x.
?
Apreciate the help,
?
Sincerely,
?
Andras
