Thanks,
This worked.

I'm still confused why the if else statement didn't work...
If one wanted to do conditional arithmetic would a for statement bee needed?


e.g.
 meuse.grid[["class"]] = for(i in 1:length(meuse.grid[["dist"]])){
if (meuse.grid[["dist"]]<0.5) 
{meuse.grid[["class"]]=10*meuse.grid[["dist]]} else
{meuse.grid[["class"]]=100* meuse.grid[["dist"]]}
 }
