The phrase "does not work" is not very helpful, it can mean quit a few
things including:
* Your computer exploded.
* No explosion, but smoke is pouring out the back and microsoft's
"NoSmoke" utility is not compatible with your power supply.
* The computer stopped working.
* The computer sits around on the couch all day eating chips and
watching talk shows.
* The computer has started picketing your house shouting catchy
slogans and demanding better working conditions and an increase in
memory.
* Everything went dark and you cannot check the cables on the back of
the computer because the lights are off due to the power outage.
* R crashed, but the other programs are still working.
* R gave an error message and stopped processing your code after
running for a while.
* R gave an error message without running any of your code (and is
waiting for your next command).
* R is still running your code and the time has exceeded your patience
so you think it has hung.
* R completed and returned a result, but also gave warnings.
* R completed your command, but gave an incorrect answer.
* R completed your command but the answer is different from what you
expect (but is correct according to the documentation)
There are probably others.
Running your code I think the answer is the last one.
The foregoing is so priceless that I think it ought to be a fortune,
irrespective of its length.
cheers,
