Although I think I understand "every 10 numbers", I am not so sure how to
interpret "subtract aa from AA" for a couple of reasons.
First, to decimate your data:
ab <- AA[(1:10)*10]
As for subtraction, you have not told us what variable aa is. If you meant
variable ab, it has only 10 values while AA has 100 values. If you try to
subtract ab, R will "recycle" values until you get 10 copies of ab.
If you are thinking of set difference, there is a setdiff function, but that
will only work reliably with integer data (which you have here but may not in
general). However, you may find reading the section on indexing in the
Introduction to R document that ships with R to be very useful. In there it
mentions the effect of using negative index values:
AA[-(1:10)*10]
giving you "the rest of the data".
