[R] bigest part of vector

[markleeds at verizon.net]

There's probably something built in to R but you can change the values 
of the percentiles (p) below to get the value that corresponds to it. 
rounding might be problematic also.

temp <- c(1,4,8,3,5)
p <- 0.8
temp[order(temp)][round(length(temp)*p)]
