Does anyone know why the two rank functions gives different results? I need to use the rank function in a "for" loop, so the sequence to be ranked is given values in the form of part (1). How can I use assignment like in part (1) to get correct ranks as in part (2)?
Thank You Part (1) i<-1.94 b<-0.95-i c<-1.73-i d<-2.62-i y<-c(0.68,0.95,b,c,d) y 0.68 0.95 -0.99 -0.21 0.68 rank(y) 3 5 1 2 4 Part(2) rank(c(0.68,0.95,-0.99,-0.21,0.68)) 3.5 5.0 1.0 2.0 3.5 ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
