Check which elements of a vector is between the elements of another one in R

Question

I am new user in R. How can I check which elements of the vector A is between the elements of vector B for example:

    A = c(1.1,          


        

Answer 1

If I understand correctly this is one possibility:

A = c(1.1, 3.2, 5, 8.5, 4.6, 2.2)
B = c(1, 2, 3,4,10)

B1 <- head(B, -1)
B2 <- tail(B, -1)

outs <- list()

for(i in seq_along(B1)) {
    outs[[i]] <- A[B1[i] < A & A < B2[i]]
}

names(outs) <- paste(B1, " & ", B2)

## > outs
## $`1  &  2`
## [1] 1.1
## 
## $`2  &  3`
## [1] 2.2
## 
## $`3  &  4`
## [1] 3.2
## 
## $`4  &  10`
## [1] 5.0 8.5 4.6
