I want my for loop to test for the presence of a term in a vector and return
a value to a new vector. I'm not writing it correctly though. Here's what I
have...
> testfor = letters[1:5]
> x = c("a", "b", "e", "f", "g")
> result = rep(NA, length(testfor))
>
> for (i in testfor){
+ v = any(x == testfor[i])
+ result[i] = v
+ }
>
> result
a b c d e
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
I would like to get....
>result
TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE
Thanks,
MVS
