R help - Aug 2012 - if then in R versus SAS

I am new to R and I have the following SAS statements:

if otype='M' and ocond='1' and entry='a.Prop' then
MOC=1;
else MOC=0;

How would I translate that into R code?

Thanks in advance

See ?ifelse and ?Logic, both of which are covered in "An Introduction to
R" (http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html).

  MOC <- ifelse((otype == 'M') & (ocond == '1') &
(entry == 'a.Prop'), 1, 0)
