Hi There, I'm facing one problem to construct a vector using the "for" command:
I have one matrix named 'dados' (same as /data/ from portuguese), for example: > dados[140:150,] [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 212.7298 0.14 0.11 [2,] 213.3778 0.14 0.11 [3,] 214.0257 0.15 0.11 [4,] 214.6737 0.15 0.12 [5,] 215.3217 0.15 0.12 [6,] 215.9696 0.15 0.12 [7,] 216.6176 0.16 0.12 [8,] 217.2656 0.16 0.13 [9,] 217.9135 0.16 0.13 [10,] 218.5615 0.16 0.13 [11,] 219.2094 0.17 0.13 So, I need one vector getting the values from the third column given specific values of the second: s <- seq(0,1,0.05) r <- NULL for (w in 1:length(s)){ r[w] <- dados[,3][dados[,2]==s[w]][1] } This vector 'r' are working well to many values, but there are some inconsistency (NA's) for others: > r [1] 0.00 0.03 0.07 NA 0.16 0.21 NA NA 0.36 0.41 0.46 0.52 NA 0.63 NA [16] 0.74 0.79 NA 0.90 NA 1.00 and dissecting this: > s[4] [1] 0.15 > dados[,3][dados[,2]==0.15][1] [1] 0.11 > dados[,3][dados[,2]==s[4]][1] [1] NA > s[4]==0.15 [1] FALSE > s[5]==0.20 [1] TRUE > dados[,3][dados[,2]==s[5]][1] [1] 0.16 Anyone could help me to discover why this is occorring? dados[,2] and dados[,3] came from rounded values. Could this fact interfere the results? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Getting-wrong-NA-values-using-for-cmd-tp3654335p3654335.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
