R>a<-c(1,2,3)
R> b<-c(1,1,2,4)
R>1*b%in%a*b
[1] 1 1 2 0
R> b<-c(1,1,2,4,5,1,2,3,4)
R>1*b%in%a*b
[1] 1 1 2 0 0 1 2 3 0
I think this works

Subject: [R] match multiple records
Hi,
I have a question, explained by the following example:> a<-c(1,2,3)
> b<-c(1,1,2,4)
> b[match(a,b, nomatch=0)]
[1] 1 2
which means it returns "the first match", but I want to get
1 1 2 instead of 1 2
In a word, how to do multiple matching?
thanks,
