Ok Jim it worked, thank you! it´s funny because it worked with the first
syntax in some cases...
you can use another approach in this case
P-max(c(P1,P2))

I checked the syntax so I don´t understand, I have other if else

if (yes){
be happy
}else{
complain
}

Re: [R] Simple if else statement problem
Anna,
I think the else needs to be on the same line
as the curly bracket like this } else.
P1 - 1
P2 - 2
if( P2 P1)
{
P-P2
} else
{
P-P1
}
Good luck,
Jim

If R knows the whole thing is incomplete, it will accept an else on its
own line. If the first 4 lines make a complete statement, R will
evaluate it, and not accept the following else.
So putting braces around the whole thing is another workaround, but
putting the else on the same line as the first closing brace is probably
better.

No, it did not. R doesn't randomly work in different
ways on different days.
