ni: Negated Value Matching

In intrval: Relational Operators for Intervals

Negated Value Matching

Description

%ni% is the negation of %in%, which returns a logical vector indicating if there is a non-match or not for its left operand. %nin% and %notin% are aliases for better code readability (%in% can look very much like %ni%).

Usage

x %ni% table
x %nin% table
x %notin% table

Arguments

x	vector or NULL: the values to be matched.
table	vector or NULL: the values to be matched against.

Value

A logical vector, indicating if a non-match was located for each element of x: thus the values are TRUE or FALSE and never NA.
