Hello, Please could someone explain
break and next?? Is there a way to break a loop that is not the innermost loop?? for example: #========================= dim A = 1000 x 3 dim B = 2000 x 3 for (a in 1:1000){ for (b in 1:2000){ expr = intersect(A[a,1]:A[a,2],B[b,1]:B[b,2]) if (!is.na(expr[1])){ indx = which(expr[1] >= A[,2]) if (length(indx) > 1){ for(c in 1:length(indx)) X[a,1] = paste(.....) ..... }else { X[a,1] = A[indx, 3] } } ###BREAK - Here does not work NEXT # am not sure if this is doing what I want it to?? } } #============================= Any help and advice would be much appreciated!
