How to find Nth smallest value in vector in R ?

In this article, we will discuss how to find the Nth smallest in vector in the R programming language.

Steps –

• Create vector
• Take input from the user using the function readline().
• Convert data from string to int using the function as.integer().
• In this step, we are finding nth largest number using

Syntax:

sort(vector name ) [n value])

Parameter:

• Vector name is the vector which we created.
• N value is which largest number you want to print.

Example 1:

R

a<- c(1,3,4)

x = readline();
x = as.integer(x);

print(sort(a)[x])

Output:

[1] 1

Example 2:

R

a<- c(3453,39898,-997784)

x = readline();
x = as.integer(x);

print(sort(a)[x])

Output:

[1] 39898
