Hi,
Given a vector, say
x=sample(0:9,10)
x
[1] 0 6 3 5 1 9 7 4 8 2
I can find the location of an element by
which(x==2)
[1] 10
but what if I want to find the location of more than one number? I could do
c(which(x==2),which(x==3))
but isn't there something more streamlined? My first guess was
y=c(2,3)
which(x==y)
integer(0)
which doesn't work. I haven't found any clue in the R manual.
Thanks!
