Hi all R users,
I am trying to extract elements from an array (x as shown below) where the
difference between the consecutive elements does not equal 1.
The desired output is:
j = 6,17,27,38,58,69,79,90
However, the code below only returns:
j = 1,69,79,90
I am assuming that "cbind" function is not extracting all the elements
meeting the condition. In Matlab, j = [] (empty array) would append all the
elements into this variable j if the conditions are met. I have also tried
concatenating the elements (j <- c(1, x[i], x[i+1], x[length(x)]), however
no luck..
> x
[1] 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38
58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90
i <- 1
j <- numeric()
while (i < length(x))
{
if (x[i] + 1 != x[i+1])
j <- cbind(1, x[i], x[i+1], x[length(x)])
# j <- c(1, x[i], x[i+1], x[length(x)])
i <- i+1
}
Please advise any solutions that may enlighten my problem.
Highly appreciate for your help in this matter in advance.
