I'm looking for an R function that simply recodes a quantitative
variable into a number of classes according to specified break-points.
Obviously I can do this using nested ifelse() commands, but I want to
write it into a function where I can't pre-specify the number of
classes. Is there an obvious way to do this?
An example to clarify: how to convert c(0,10,5,1,9,6) to
c(1,3,2,1,3,2) by specifying "breaks"=c(2.5,7.5) - or something like
that.
Thanks,
