Hello r-help, I have a lengthy vector of data (with values anywhere from 1-200), and another index vector of 'groups' representing values 0-2, 3-5, 6-8, ... of length 67. The index vector has the structure (1, 4, 7, ... , 196, 199), where each value is the midpoint of each respective group.
I'm trying to convert the data vector such that values falling into each group are changed to the 'number' of that group. That is, the position of the midpoint of that group in the index vector. For example, 4 or 5 would become a 2; 6 would become 3; 9 or 10 would become 4, and so on. Haven't had any success thus far -- does anyone know of a simple method offhand? I've started by converting the data vector to a vector of the midpoints of each group, via > round(data.vector/3)*3 + 1 But haven't been able to accomplish much past that. I'm guessing it can be accomplished via a simple loop or otherwise.
