range.default {base}R Documentation

Range of Values

Description

range.default returns a vector containing the minimum and maximum of all the values present in its first arguments.

Usage

range.default(..., na.rm = FALSE, finite = FALSE)

Arguments

... any numeric objects.
na.rm logical, indicating if NA's should be omitted.
finite logical, indicating if all non-finite elements should be omitted.

Details

This is the default method of the generic function range.

If na.rm is FALSE, NA and NaN values in any of the arguments will cause NA values to be returned, otherwise NA values are ignored. If finite is TRUE, the minimum and maximum of all finite values is computed, i.e., finite=TRUE includes na.rm=TRUE.

range, min, max.

Examples

print(r.x <- range(rnorm(100)))
diff(r.x) # the SAMPLE range

x <- c(NA, 1:3, -1:1/0); x
range(x)
range(x, na.rm = TRUE)
range(x, finite = TRUE)
