R – Create Vector
To create a vector in R programming, there are three ways: c() function, seq() function and : operator.
In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a vector using the the above mentioned ways.
Create Vector using c() Function
c() function combines values together. We can use this c() function to combine the given values and create a vector.
In the following R program, we will use c() function to create a vector of double values.
example.R
x <- c(1, 4, 9, 16, 25) cat(x)
Output
1 4 9 16 25
Create Vector using seq() Function
seq() function creates a sequence of values. We can use this seq() function to create a vector with sequence values.
In the following R program, we will use seq() function to create a vector of double values.
example.R
x <- seq(0, 20, length.out=5) cat(x)
Output
0 5 10 15 20
Create Vector using : Operator
: creates continuous values. We can use this : operator to create a vector with continuous values.
In the following R program, we will use : operator to create a vector.
example.R
x <- 1:5 cat(x)
Output
1 2 3 4 5
Conclusion
In this R Tutorial, we learned how to create a vector in R language, using different functions like c(), seq(); and operators like :, with the help of examples.
