In hkauhanen/hipster: Henri's Idiosyncratic Package for Somewhat Tedious Everyday Routines

Description

Return the k elements of a vector closest (in terms of Euclidean distance) to a reference value, as well as those elements' indices in the vector.

Usage

Arguments

x	Reference value
vec	Vector
k	How many closest neighbours to return

Value

A data frame with the following columns, sorted by increasing distance:

index

Index of element (i.e. value is the same as vec[index])

value

Element

dist

Euclidean distance of element to reference value
