Dear list,
I have a vector of characters and a list of two named elements :
i <- c("a","a","b","b","b","c","c","d")
j <- list(j1 = c("a","c"), j2 = c("b","d"))
I'm looking for a fast way to obtain a vector with names, as follows :
[1] "j1" "j1" "j2" "j2" "j2" "j1" "j1" "j2"
I used :
match <- lapply(j, function (x) {which(i %in% x)})
k <- vector()
for (y in 1:length(match)) {
k[match[[y]]] <- names(match[y])}
k
[1] "j1" "j1" "j2" "j2" "j2" "j1" "j1" "j2"
But, I think a better way exists ...
Thanks in advance,
Carlos
