Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I can't find any discussion of it.
Wondering why the following situation occurs (duplicated on 3.2.2 CentOS6 and 3.0.1 Win2k, so I don't think it is a bug): > sapply(1, identical, 1) [1] TRUE > sapply(1:2, identical, 1) [1] FALSE FALSE > sapply(1:2, function(i) identical(as.numeric(i),1) ) [1] TRUE FALSE > sapply(1:2, function(i) identical(as(i,"numeric"),1) ) [1] FALSE FALSE I have been unable to find anything different about the versions of "1" that identical() is not finding identical.
