lapply - Using apply functions instead of for and branching statements in R -

i using r , stop using branching , statements take advantage of apply functions. being said, have list, x:

x <- c(5,12,19,26,2,9,16,23)

i corresponding list follows:

for in x      if (i<=7) 1      else if (i<=14) 2      else if (i<=21) 3      else if (i<=28) 4      else 5

the final new list be: 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4

how can 1 of apply statements? every time try , write 1 end scratching head hour , post question here.

thank you.

simply use cut:

x <- c(5, 12, 21, 35)  as.integer(cut(x, c(-inf, 7, 14, 21, 28, inf))) #[1] 1 2 3 5
