Dear All,

would you please help with the following:
let us say I have: 

a <-c(0,1,12,13,24,25,36,37)
b <-c(6,24.6,27)
#then I extract every 2nd element from "a"
d <-a[seq(1, length(a), 2)]

and what I need help with is to extract the 1st value from d that is greater than the values in b, so as a result I should have "f" as:

f <-c(12,36,36)

appreciate the insights,

thank you,

Andras
