Hi,

The logical operators are actually vectorized, so I do not think you
need a loop.  Does this do what you want?

## Some data
set.seed(10)
dat<- matrix(rnorm(500, sd = 3), nrow = 80)

## Hypothetical confidence interval
ci<- c(-5, 5)

## Find the number of points outside interval
sum(dat<  ci[1] | dat>  ci[2], na.rm = TRUE)

Cheers,

Josh

Or you could use (no simpler) findInterval():

 fI <- findInterval(dat, sort(ci))

## to see what's produced:
 table(fI)
#  0   1   2
# 28 512  20

## the 1s indicate values inside ci, etc,
## so we want

 sum(fI != 1)
# [1] 48

Hi,
I am trying to determine how many points fall ouside the confidence interval
range.

This is the code I have so far but it does not work. Any help would be
appreciated.

Count<- vector ()
for (i in 1: nrow (dataname)){
if (dataname[i]<l.ci.post[1]//
dataname[i]>u.ci.post[i]){
count[i] ->  1
}else
{count[i] ->  0}
}

// = or - not sure if this is the right symbol though
