Re: [R] filling values in a vector using smaller vector

Thank you both for such beautiful solutions. Just what I was looking for! I love the Internet, R, and the R-list! There is so much opportunity to learn. In fact, looking at the replace function, I see the two solutions are the same: > replace function (x, list, values) { x[list] <- valu

[R] filling values in a vector using smaller vector

Dear list members: I am looking for an elegant (or efficient) way to accomplish the following: take a large boolean vector and fill the TRUE values with the values from a smaller boolean vector that has a length that is the number of TRUE values of the large vector. Example: large<- c(FALSE,
