Hi all,

I have a situation where I have 16 bins. I generate a random number and
then want to know which bin number the random number falls in. Right now, I
am using a serious of 16 if() else {} statements which get very complicated
with the embedded curly braces. Is there a more efficient (i.e., easier)
way to go about this?


boundaries<-(0:16)/16
rand<-runif(1)

Which bin number (1:16) does rand fall in?

Thanks,

Dan
