Try this (convert the logical TRUE to the value 1):

> EvHint<-c(0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0)
> MinTex<-c(0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0)
>
> RiskTest <- (EvHint == 1 & MinTex == 1) + 0L
> rbind(EvHint, MinTex, RiskTest)
         [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11]
[,12] [,13] [,14] [,15] [,16]
EvHint      0    0    0    1    0    1    1    0    1     1     1
1     1     0     1     0
MinTex      0    0    1    1    0    1    1    0    0     0     0
1     0     0     0     0
RiskTest    0    0    0    1    0    1    1    0    0     0     0
1     0     0     0     0
         [,17] [,18] [,19] [,20]
EvHint       0     1     0     0
MinTex       0     0     1     0
RiskTest     0     0     0     0
