frame created from vectors, and it worked fine.
The function:
percentdistance <- function(origin, terminus, length, begin, replicor){
print(c(origin, terminus, length, begin, repl))

if(replicor=="LEFT") {
d = -((origin-begin)%%length)
}
else {
d = (begin-origin)
}
}
else {
if (replicor=="LEFT") {
d=(o...
