Jean, how would you modify your function to grab all the selected and not just the first? Thank you so much!

It returns a 1 every time an element of a vector is different from the previous element, and a 0 otherwise. first <- function(x) { L <- length(x) c(1, 1-(x[-1]==x[-L])) } sd <- 1 residuals <- c(1, 2.1, 3, 4, 3, 1, 0, -4, -1) # logical, indicating if the residual exceeds 2 standard deviations exceed <- abs(residuals) > (2*sd) # indices of the first exceeding residual of a series which(first(exceed) & exceed) Jean gcm <[hidden email]</user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=4636370&i=0>> wrote on 07/12/2012 11:07:49 AM: > I have a graph of residuals and I am attempting to get a list of the indexes > of each time the residual is greater than 2 standard deviations or less than > -2 standard deviations, but only the first point of the section.

Also, it would grab -4 (or residuals[ 8]) and -1 (residuals[9]) [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ [hidden email]</user/SendEmail.jtp?type=node&node=4636370&i=1> mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ________________________________ If you reply to this email, your message will be added to the discussion below: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Grabbing-Indexes-of-a-certain-standard-deviation-tp4636318p4636370.html To unsubscribe from Grabbing Indexes of a certain standard deviation, click here<http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=unsubscribe_by_code&node=4636318&code=bHZvZ3JpY0BncmFoYW1jYXBpdGFsLmNvbXw0NjM2MzE4fDUwNDUzMzMwMQ==>.
