Try this:
r <- sort(rank(a, ties.method="average"), decreasing=T)

Hi,
Is there any simple solution to get ranks in descending order?
Example,
a <- c(10, 98, 98, 98, 99, 100)
r <- rank(a, ties.method="average")
produces
1 3 3 3 5 6
I would want this instead:
6 5 3 3 3 1
Note that reversing r doesn't work but in small examples.
Thanks,
-Jose
