Hi, I would like to cut a vector of values in parts. Each part should have an equal number of elements. for example: x <- (rnorm(500)^2) now I want 5 vectors each with 100 elements. The first vector should include the 100 lowest values of x and so on (so that the fifth vector contains the 100 highest values of x). thanks for any help! ______________________________________________ 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.
