Dear R users,
>From the code below, I try to compute "y" value. (In fact, y looks like a
trapezoid)
------------------------------------------------------------------
x <- seq(0,1,.01)
y <- ifelse(abs(x-.5)<=0.3,0,
ifelse(abs(w-.5)>=0.4,-1,
ifelse((0.1<w && w<0.2),10*x-2,-10*x+8)))
------------------------------------------------------------------
So, results are...
------------------------------------------------------------------

However, even though the results show that y=8 for x=0.11, when x=0.11,
actual y value is -0.9. And, y=-0.8 for x=0.88. I cannot understand the
above results.
Any comments will be greatly appreciated.
