Re: [R] how to compute a vector of min values ?

Peter showed how to get the minimums from a list or data frame using sapply, here is a way to copy your 1440 vectors into a single list (doing this and keeping your data in a list instead of separate vectors will make your life easier in general): my.list <- lapply( 1:1440, function(x) get( sprint

Hi, I'd like to know how to get a vector of min value from many vectors without making a loop. For example : >v1 = c( 1, 2, 3) > v2 = c( 2, 3, 4) > v3 = c(3, 4, 5) > df = data.frame(v1, v2, v3) > df v1 v2 v3 1 1 2 3 2 2 3 4 3 3 4 5 > min_vect = min(df) > min_vect [1] 1 I 'd like to

Hello, Try apply(df, 2, min) (By the way, 'df' is the name of a R function, avoid it, 'DF' is better.) Hope this helps, Rui Barradas -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/how-to-compute-a-vector-of-min-values-tp4536224p4536275.html Sent from the R help mailing list a
