between: Detect if values fall within a range

In r-lib/funs: Useful Vectorised Functions

Detect if values fall within a range

Description

This is essentially a shortcut for x >= left & x <= right, but it also retains the size of x and casts both left and right to the type of x before making the comparison.

Usage

between(x, left, right, ..., bounds = "[]")

Arguments

x	A vector
left, right	Boundary values. Both left and right are recycled to the size of x and are cast to the type of x.
...	These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.
bounds	One of "[]", "[)", "(]", or "()", which defines whether the boundary is inclusive (with [ or ]) or exclusive (with ( or )).

Value

A logical vector the same size as x.

Examples

between(c(1:10, NA), 4, 6)
between(letters, "d", "j")

today <- Sys.Date()
between(today, today - 1, today + 1)
