Hello, this is just a point of curiosity with me. I want a sequence of
numbers from 64 to 70, omitting the 2nd and 4th numbers. I can do it
these ways:

seq(64, 70)[-c(2, 4)]
[1] 64 66 68 69 70

foo<- 64:70
foo[-c(2, 4)]
[1] 64 66 68 69 70

But how come this doesn't work?
64:70[-c(2, 4)]
[1] 64 65 66 67 68 69 70

Just wondering.

Ah, but it does work!

 (64:70)[-c(2,4)]
[1] 64 66 68 69 70
