Conditional and Iterative Operations

In this chapter, you will use conditional and repetition operators in R. This chapter covers the following recipes:

• The use of the if conditional statement
• The use of the if…else conditional operator
• The use of the ifelse vectorised conditional operator
• Writing a function using the switch operator
• Comparing the performance of switch and series of the if…else statements
• Using for loop for iterations
• Vectorised operation versus for loop
