[R] logical operations with lists

[Zoppoli, Gabriele (NIH/NCI) [G]]

I'm sorry but here's what I get:

> A[1:10,]
 [1] UQCRC1 IDH3B  PDHA1  SUCLA2 COX5B  SDHB   SDHA   MDH2   DLD    COQ7 

> dim(A)
[1] 1013    1

> B[1:10,]
 [1] 3.8-1.2 3.8-1.3 3.8-1.4 3.8-1.5 5-HT3c2 A1BG    A1CF    A2BP1   A2LD1   A2M   

> dim(B)
[1] 55546     1

> C<-rbind(A,B)
> dim(C)
[1] 56559     1

> D <- C[which(C %in% A ==FALSE)]
> dim(D)
[1] 56559     0

and so with any other proposed method.

I imported the list A and B this way:

> A<-as.vector(read.delim("E:/A.txt",sep="\t",header=FALSE))

and then removed the redundant rows with:

> A<-unique(A)

Guess I'm doing something really wrong here... Sorry for the inexperience, I'm trying to improve...

This is probably not the best way, but (assuming you had vectors and
not lists, since I'm not sure what your list looks like):

C <- B[which(B %in% A ==FALSE)]
