Data types in R

Everything in R is in the form of objects. Objects can be manipulated in R. Some of the common objects in R are numeric vectors, character vectors, complex vectors, logical vectors, and integer vectors.

How to do it…

In order to generate a numeric vector in R, we can use the C() notation to specify it as follows:

x = c(1:5) # Numeric Vector

To generate a character vector, we can specify the same within quotes (" ") as follows:

y ="I am Home" # Character Vector

To generate a complex vector, we can use the i notation as follows:

c = c(1+3i) #complex vector

A list is a combination of a character and a numeric vector and can be specified using the list() notation:

z = list(c(1:5),"I am Home") # List
