Thanks David and Patrick,
I need to use two statements for the if condition specified. Since the
first statement feeds into the second, the ifelse function may just work
for the dataset. I'm not sure if there will be issues later but I've
tested it and it works.
x <- as.matrix(read.table("test.txt"))
Original code;
if (x < 20){
y <- x + 100 # statement 1a
... # statement 1b
} else {
y <- x -100 # statement 2a
... # statement 2b
}
New code:
n0 <- x + 100
n1 <- n0 + 0
m0 <- x - 100
m1 <- m0 - 0
ifelse(x < 20, n1, m1)
