 I noticed that one of the values had decimal places, while the other didn't,
 so the comparison would be 11.00  10
 I don't know if that might have anything to do with my problem.

Well, not really the decimal places, but the data type.

 Anyway, I don't have much idea what the error means, and I don't know how to
 check what data type the different vectors are.

So time to start looking at the documentation?
class() is your friend, you might also want to try str().

 I was wondering if anyone could help me out, and also, I was wondering if
 there is any error documentation (stuff that tells what the error means.)

Probably one of your objects is a factor rather than a numeric value.


 Thanks!
