Campare two numeric vectors

This wrapper around sign() provides a more intuitive labeling.

compare(x, y, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

x, y

numeric verctors to be compared item by item

verbose

a logical indicating whether verbose labeling is desired

Value

a factor with three levels (<, =, and > if verbose is FALSE)

Examples

tally( ~ compare(mcs, pcs), data = mosaicData::HELPrct)
#> compare(mcs, pcs)
#>   <   > 
#> 379  74 
tally( ~ compare(mcs, pcs, verbose = TRUE), data = mosaicData::HELPrct)
#> compare(mcs, pcs, verbose = TRUE)
#> mcs < pcs mcs > pcs 
#>       379        74 
tally( ~ compare(sexrisk, drugrisk), data = mosaicData::HELPrct)
#> compare(sexrisk, drugrisk)
#>    <    =    > <NA> 
#>   68   32  352    1
