useR's I am trying to compare two vectors that have the same length. More specifically, I am interested in comparing the corresponding positions of each element in the vector.
Consider these two vectors of length 20: v1 <- 2 2 4 NA NA NA 10 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA v2 <- NA 4 NA NA NA NA 10 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA 100 NA I am only interested in extracting the position number where both vectors are not equal to NA at the same position. For example, the second element of both vectors is not equal to NA, and thus I want to return '2'; similary, I also would want to have '7' returned because the seventh element of both arrays is not equal to NA. In general, I would like to find a way to do this for any number of given positions between the two vectors that satisfy this. If no positions satisfy this, then return '0' I would like to store the results as an object. If anyone has any ideas, I would greatly appreciate it.
