Is there any way to assign a vector to another and then sort it in R-CodePudding

    heights = c(154,152,165,160)
    names(heights) = c("Dan","Gan","Tan","Ban")


    n=length(heights)
    for(j in c(1:n))
    {
     for(i in c(1:(n-1)))
     {
      if(heights[i]>heights[i 1])
      {
       c=heights[I]
       heights[i]=heights[i 1]
       heights[i 1]=c
      }
     }
    }
    print(heights)

#I want to sort the vector of names according to the ascending order of heights (from shorter to higher).

CodePudding user response：

The order function provides an argsort functionality, so that

names(heights)[order(heights)]

should give you what you want

CodePudding user response：

Are you looking for sort()?

sort(heights) |>
    names()

[1] "Gan" "Dan" "Ban" "Tan"
