Hi,
I'm quite fresh to R, and a layman of English as well. I hope I can make you
understood.
Now I have two vectors A and B. Is there any quick way to know whether B is
a subset of A? and If B is a subset of A, can I know easily which elements
in A (the index of A) equals to B's elements accordingly?
For example,
> a<-1:20
> b=c(2,5,9,7,4,8,3)
>
Question 1: we know b is a subset of a, but how does R know that?
Question 2: since we know b is a subset of a, then which a's elements equals
to b? I do it like this:
test=0
> for (i in 1:length(b)) test[i]=which(a==b[i])
> test
>
Is there any easier way to know these indexes?
Thanks a lot for you helps in advance
