Hi
I need help in the recursive problem. this is my code
#Generate two random Numbers
minval=20
maxval=100
cutoffValue=50
optVal- function(cutoffValue,minval,maxval)
{
x=runif(2)
x=x*cutoffValue
for( i in 1:2)
{
if(x[i] 30 || x[i] 60) # checking it falls between the range
{
optVal(cutoffValue,minval,maxval)
}
}
return(x)
}
optVal(40,20,60)
I'm getting Error like this
*Error: evaluation nested too deeply: infinite recursion /
options(expressions=)?*
You can easily find out what is wrong by inserting a print(x) just before
the if(...).
Why are you not using the minval and maxval arguments in your function
optVal?
Change the line with the if to
if(x[i] minval || x[i] maxval) # checking it falls between the
range
and call optVal with a smaller value for minval
optVal(40,20,60)
and you will avoid the error message. Your minval of 30 is simply too high
i.e. you are rejecting an x too quickly.
