[R] How to index the occasions in a vector repeatedly under condition 1? if not, it will give a new index.

[PIKAL Petr]

Hi

If you used diff construction you would not have NA values in beginning

#get rid of NA values
> d[is.na(d)] <- 0
#split d according to a
> d.s <- split(d, a)
# get the result
> lapply(d.s, function(x) cumsum(x>15)+1)
$`1`
[1] 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 3

$`2`
[1] 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 3
#unlist it
> res <- lapply(d.s, function(x) cumsum(x>15)+1)
> unlist(res)
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 
 1  1  1  1  1  1  2  3  3  1  1  1  1  1  1  2  3  3 

Cheers
Petr
