[R] selecting values that are unique, instead of selecting unique values

[Gabor Csardi]

I'm sorry to say, but this one is wrong, too.
Maybe coffee really helps, I just had one. :) 

> Vec <- c(20:30,20)
> which(table(Vec) == 1)
21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 
 2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11 

You would actually need the names, but that would involve 
some numberic -> character -> numeric conversion. 
My previous solution is better in this respect.

Btw. to get rid of names 'unname' is better, the code is
more readable.

Best,
Gabor
