How to find the rank of a vector elements in R from largest to smallest?
To find the rank of a vector of elements we can use rank function directly but this will result in ranks from smallest to largest. For example, if we have a vector x that contains values 1, 2, 3 in this sequence then the rank function will return 1 2 3. But if we want to get ranks from largest to smallest then it would be 3 2 1 and it can be done in R as rank(-x).
Example
x1<-1:10 x1
Output
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Example
rank(-x1)
Output
[1] 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Example
x2<-rpois(100,5) x2
Output
[1] 5 1 4 8 5 1 5 6 2 1 6 5 1 4 2 4 3 6 7 6 3 5 7 4 11 [26] 5 2 4 6 2 6 9 1 1 5 7 2 5 4 3 8 9 5 5 6 4 9 4 2 6 [51] 4 9 5 1 4 9 4 8 6 5 5 6 1 12 7 6 3 5 9 2 6 3 6 4 5 [76] 9 3 4 6 3 6 5 11 2 4 7 2 5 5 7 5 9 4 2 3 6 3 4 5 4
