Dear friends,
R 2.0.1 on windows XP:
TOT <- seq(0.01,1,by=0.01)
which(TOT==0.06)
# numeric(0)
which(TOT>0.06)
# [1] 6 7 8 etc
which(TOT<0.06)
#[1] 1 2 3 4 5
TOT[6]
#[1] 0.06
TOT[6]==0.06
#[1] FALSE
but
TOT[5]==0.05
#[1] TRUE
and
which(TOT==0.05)
# [1] 5
TOT looks as expected when printed,
0.35 and 0.36 behaves similarly
I have tried on another machine with the same result - wonder what happens
and whether
this is as expected ?
Best wishes
