[R-SIG-Finance] Sequence ID

[Jorge Nieves]

Thanks,

I received two suggestions that work..

One by Martin Becker

test = c(0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,0)
myrle<-rle(test)
myrle$values[myrle$values==1]<-1000*seq_len(sum(myrle$values==1))
inverse.rle(myrle)

And the other by Gabor (see bellow) 

Thanks a lot !!!!

Jorge

Try this:

1000 * cumsum(pmax(0, diff(c(0, test)))) * test
