Note that the answer Ben Bolker gave you (using "indexing")
is much more efficient than the ifelse() answer below.
ifelse() may be convenient .. but is almost always suboptimal,
where as "indexing" is typically very often more efficient,
although often requiring a bit more thought than ifelse()
[so, if overall efficience is almost entirely your own human
time, then using ifelse() may still be a good idea... ]
