Check if a numeric value falls between a range in R Programming – between() function
between() function in R Language is used to check that whether a numeric value falls in a specific range or not.
A lower bound and an upper bound is specified and checked if the value falls in it.
Syntax: between(x, left, right)
Parameters:
x: A numeric vector
left, right: Boundary values
Example 1: Values in Range
install.packages( "dplyr" )
library( "dplyr" )
x1 < - 7
left1 < - 1
right1 < - 10
between(x1, left1, right1)
|
Output:
TRUE
Here in the above code, we have defined value to 7 to x1 and defined upper and lower bound 1 and 10 respectively.
As we have given the value 7 falls in range 1 to 10. So the Output is “TRUE”.
Example 2: Value not in Range
install.packages( "dplyr" )
library( "dplyr" )
x2 < - 11
left2 < - 1
right2 < - 10
between(x2, left2, right2)
|
Output:
FALSE
Here in the above code, we have assigned a value 11 to x2 and defined upper and lower bound to 1 and 10 respectively.
And clearly the value 11 does not fall in a given range from 1 to 10.
So the answer is FALSE.
