Hi Edward,
Here is a suggestion:
a = c(4,5,1,7,8,12,39)
b = c(3,7,8,4,7,25,78)
d <- a-b
d[which(d>0)]
# [1] 1 3 1
#Or even:
d <- (a-b)[which((a-b)>0)]
d
#[1] 1 3 1
HTH,
Jorge

I have a code:

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.
