Indeed, well spotted, that seems to be correct. > > Henric Winell > ------------------------------ In the particular example (of length 4), what is really wanted is the following. ind <- integer(4) ind[sort.list(x, decreasing=TRUE)] <- 4:1 ind The following gives the desired result: sort.list(rev(sort.list(x, decreasing=TRUE))) ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
