I have a code: *a = c(4,5,1,7,8,12,39) b = c(3,7,8,4,7,25,78) d =a-b for(i in 1:length(d)){ if(d[i]>0){x = list(d[i]) print(x)} else{y = list(d[i]) print(y)}}
the results are: [[1]] [1] 1 [[1]] [1] -2 [[1]] [1] -7 [[1]] [1] 3 [[1]] [1] 1 [[1]] [1] -13 [[1]] [1] -39 which will tell me what d is. but is it possible to output the order in which the difference is in the vector d? for example I would want to see x = 1,3,1 and they are from d[1], d[4], d[5]. This is just a crude example I thought of to help me do something more complicated.
