Hi: Josh's solution is much simpler (and more practical, no doubt) than the one below, but I wanted to experiment with creating sequences using a vector of start indices and a corresponding vector of end indices:
b <- 1:3 # vector of start indices e <- 3:5 # vector of end indices The idea is to vectorize the seq() function, use mapply on it and then flatten the result to a vector. Intuitively obvious :) vseq <- Vectorize(seq) mapply(vseq, b, e) # close... [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 2 3 [2,] 2 3 4 [3,] 3 4 5 as.vector(mapply(vseq, b, e)) # ja... [1] 1 2 3 2 3 4 3 4 5 HTH, Dennis On Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 8:25 PM, Suphajak Ngamlak < supha...@phatrasecurities.com> wrote: > I would like to create a vector that is a sequence from 2 vectors.
