This is not right, it keeps the 15 largest *indices*, not values.

Here is a way.


TopN <- function(x, n, keep.order = FALSE){
   nvec <- seq_len(n)
   if(keep.order){
     i <- order(x, decreasing = TRUE)[nvec]
     x[i[order(i)]]
   }else{
     sort(x, decreasing = TRUE)[nvec]
   }
}

barplot(TopN(CONTBR_RESULT, 15))
barplot(TopN(CONTBR_RESULT, 15, TRUE))


Hope this helps,
