Why would you ask your question without mentioning that the two vectors may
be of unequal length when your abbreviated example was not like that!
You have two CASES here. In one A is longer and in one B is longer. When
they are the same, it does not matter.
So in your scenario, consider looking at length(A) and length(B) and
adjusting whatever method you use carefully. You now might need to use 1:N
notation to limit what you are doing so you do not access values out of
bounds.
Not going to do it for you. I see others have also supplied variants and .

Subject: Re: [R] conditional replacement of elements of matrix with another
matrix column
I thank you all. But the code doesn't work on my different dataset where A
and B have different column lengths. For example,
> dput(A)
structure(c(17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897,
17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897, 17897,
SNIP
Can you please guide me how to implement the given code on this dataset?
I thanyou in advance

I have the matrix "A" and matrix "B" and I want the matrix "C". Is there a

Precisely, I want to replace the elements of 2nd column of A with those of B
provided the elements of 1st column match. Is there a single line loop or
code for that?
Thanks in advance,
