Could anybody explain this difference in the function order() between R under windows and R under Linux ?
It seems that under Linux the order in of character dsitinguishes between caps and normal letters and sorts them starting with the capitals (see below).
How can I avoid this (I mean: get the same results as I get under Windows)?
Thanks
Joris
Under Windows R 1.6.2
> mstring <- c("b","c","a","t","d")
> mstring[order(mstring)]
[1] "a" "b" "c" "d" "t"
> Mstring <- c("b","c","a","T","D")
> Mstring[order(Mstring)]
[1] "a" "b" "c" "D" "T"
the same under Linux R.1.6.2
> mstring <- c("b","c","a","t","d")
> mstring[order(mstring)]
[1] "a" "b" "c" "d" "t"
> Mstring <- c("b","c","a","T","D")
> Mstring[order(Mstring)]
[1] "D" "T" "a" "b" "c"
