Hello I have some strange output from R and I try to understand how R works.
Could you please help me with that?
temp <- rbind (c(10,1),c(99,98))
> temp
[,1] [,2]
[1,] 10 1
[2,] 99 98
> dist(temp)
1
2 131.6435
> sqrt(dist(temp))
1
2 11.47360
so far so good.
until the nex line: when I try to do what i did before but adding the 1/(what I
did before). I was expecting a number as a result of the division but
unfortunately I took the following:
1/sqrt(dist(temp))
[1] 0.08715662
attr(,"Size")
[1] 2
attr(,"Diag")
[1] FALSE
attr(,"Upper")
[1] FALSE
attr(,"method")
[1] "euclidean"
attr(,"call")
dist(x = temp)
attr(,"class")
[1] "dist"
Could you please help me understand what is this about?
I would like to thank you in advance for your help
Best REgards
Alex
