Re: [R] Remove a number from a vector

Better yet, remove the which altogether, and it'll run a slight bit faster and maybe look a little neater. x <- x[x!="bobo"] -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Remove-a-number-from-a-vector-tp851865p4626413.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [R] Remove a number from a vector

Example : *x=c("abba","bobo","cocoa")* In order to remove "bobo" from *x* you need to do the following: *x=x[which(x=="bobo")]* In case you already know the index of the element you want to get rid of, it is even easier *x=x[-elem.index]* Good luck -- View this message in context: http://r.7
