Thanks to Berend and the others,
I've found a solution which works fine for my problem.
I have not only 2 vectors, but also 4.
Question is, if q1 and q2 is equal to w1 and w2.
The computational time is very short, also for large data.
q1 <- c(9,5,1,5)
q2 <- c(9,2,1,5)
w1 <- c(9,4,4,4,5)
w1 <- c(9,4,4,4,5)
v <- vector()
for (i in 1:(length(q1))){
v[i] <- any((q1[i] == w1) & (q2[i] == w2))
This suggests a lack of understanding re: how to use logical
functions. The any() function is completely superfluous here. It will
return exactly the same vector as would:
q1[i] == w1) & (q2[i] == w2)
If you wanted to use any() to pick out cases where either q1[i] == w1
or q2[i]==w2 then do not put an ampersand between those arguments but
rather a comma.
