Above version shall not work as it takes only one logical value but you probably have vector of values. (We do not know code, spec$Code or any other data you have). when I try your first construction with some values I have I get sensible results so without trying to find out how your data really look like I suggest you to inspect it more closely and/or provide some working example demonstrating what you did, what is the result and how the result shall look like. zdrz$sklon*zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)+1*!(zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)) [1] 110 80 50 50 10 1 120 80 50 20 zdrz$otac[5]<-NA zdrz$sklon*zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)+1*!(zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)) [1] 110 80 50 50 1 1 120 80 50 20 zdrz$sklon[4]<-Inf zdrz$sklon*zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)+1*!(zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)) [1] 110 80 50 Inf 1 1 120 80 50 20 zdrz$sklon[4]<-NA zdrz$sklon*zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)+1*!(zdrz$otac %in% c(.6,1.2,2)) [1] 110 80 50 NA 1 1 120 80 50 20 Regards Petr > > Is there a way to avoid an if-test ? > > Thanks for your help, > Have a good day, > Ptit Bleu. > > -- > View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/nice-way-to-find-or-not-a- > value-%28problem-with-numeric%280%29%29-tp22325406p22325406.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. ______________________________________________ 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.
