Here's one more way:

 i[ findInterval(i, quantile(i, c(.25, .75))) == 1 ]

I'm trying to work out the simplest way to remove the upper and lower 
quantiles, in this case upper and lower 25% from an array.  I can do it in two 
steps but when I try it in one, it fails.  Is there something simple missing 
from my syntax or are there other simple elegant way to accomplish this?

Thanks

i<-1:20
i2<- i[i<quantile(i,.75)]
i3<- i[i>quantile(i,.25)]
i4<- i[quantile(i,.25)<  i>  quantile(i,.75)]
Error: unexpected '>' in "i4<- i[quantile(i,.25)<  i>"
