Dear Erin, -0.50 is greater than -1.00, this means that your logical test returns all FALSE answers. Now consider the results of:
x[FALSE] you are selecting none of 'x', hence numeric(0). Perhaps you mean: x[x <= -0.50 & x >= -1.0] HTH, Josh On Sat, Aug 28, 2010 at 7:47 PM, Erin Hodgess <erinm.hodg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear R People: > > I just produced the following: > > x <- seq(-3,3,.01) > x[x>= -0.50 & x<= -1.0] > numeric(0) > x[x>= -0.50 && x<= -1.0] > numeric(0) > > What am I doing wrong, please?
