I like to request that the an argument/option to rank numbers in decreasing order, i.e. largest number first, be added to rank(). Currently I am using the following construct, which can get a bit cumbersome at time.
> rank.decreasing <- function(x) length(x) + 1 - rank(x) > x <- c(101, 103, 102) > rank(x) [1] 1 3 2 > rank.decreasing(x) [1] 3 1 2 I hope this is not an unreasonable request considering sort() and order() have decreasing option. Thank you. Regards, Adai ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
