I don't know the difference between rank and order.For example: > x=c(10,30,30,20,10,20) > x[rank(x,ties.method="first")] [1] 10 10 20 30 30 20 > x[order(x)] [1] 10 10 20 20 30 30
the result is quite different, x[rank(x,ties.method="first")] [1] 10 10 20 30 30 20 It is not sorted,why? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/I-don-t-know-the-difference-between-rank-and-order-tp4650246.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org 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.
