I just found that rank() has a 'decreasing' argument that is not documented in
its
help page. I checked my version of 2.0.0 (original release hence unpatched)
and
it is not documented there. For curiousity I also went back to version 1.8.1
and
checked the function (not the documentation)and at that point rank() had not
yet
acquired the 'decreasing' argument.
It's ironic as I was wishing that rank() had a decreasing option like
sort does, and then I found that it already does.
Thanks,
Doug
