Hi:
Not much different from Peter's approach, but here's another try:
v <- c(1, 2, 6, 5)
w <- matrix(c(1, 4, 3, 5, 8, 10), ncol = 2, byrow = TRUE)
> w
[,1] [,2]
[1,] 1 4
[2,] 3 5
[3,] 8 10
f <- function(x) v[which(v >= x[1] & v <= x[2])]
unlist(apply(w, 1, f))
[1] 1 2 5
If you just do the apply() part, the function will return a list of
those elements of v that fall within the i-th interval.
HTH,
Dennis
