I'm just beginning R, with book Using R for Introductory Statistics, and one of the early questions has me baffled. The question is, create the sequence: 1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1 using seq() and rep().
Now, as a programmer, I am punching myself to not be able to figure it out.. I mean, as simple as a for loop, but using seq, I am stumped. I would think c(1:5, 4:1) would be the brute force method with very non intelligent coding.. there has to be a way to make the "turning point" (in this case 5) parametric right? So you could change it later and the sequence will reflect it. -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/how-to-make-this-sequence-1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1-tp1579245p1579245.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
