problem of creating vector in R

[angel-sakura]

Hi everyone:

I have encountered a problem of creating this type of vector in R:
The format is below:
> str(geneList)
Named num [1:12495] 4.57 4.51 4.42 4.14 3.88 ...
- attr(*, "names")= chr [1:12495] "4312" "8318" "10874" "55143" ...

Could someone please help me with this ?

Thank you very much!

It's just a named numeric vector

Here is the code to create a named numeric vector.

> a = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
> names(a) <- c("a", "b", "c", "d", "e")
> str(a)
 Named num [1:5] 1 2 3 4 5
 - attr(*, "names")= chr [1:5] "a" "b" "c" "d" …

Here is the code to create exactly the same vector.
Obviously, I cannot guess the hidden values, so I just repeated the last element.

> geneList <- c(4.57, 4.51, 4.42, 4.14, 3.88, rep(3.88, 12490))
> names(geneList) <- c("4312", "8318", "10874", "55143", rep("55143", 12491))
> str(geneList)
 Named num [1:12495] 4.57 4.51 4.42 4.14 3.88 3.88 3.88 3.88 3.88 3.88 ...
 - attr(*, "names")= chr [1:12495] "4312" "8318" "10874" "55143" …
