I have a vector and I'm able to return highest and lowest value, but how to return 5 topmost values? Is there a simple one-line solution for this?

To get the top values in an R data frame, we can use the head function and if we want the values in decreasing order then sort function will be required. Therefore, we need to use the combination of head and sort function to find the top values in decreasing order.
Max() function in R For this, we first create a vector and then apply the max() function, which returns the max value in the vector.
The way you tell R that you want to select some particular elements (i.e., a 'subset') from a vector is by placing an 'index vector' in square brackets immediately following the name of the vector. For a simple example, try x[1:10] to view the first ten elements of x.
x[order(x)[1:5]] 
> a <- c(1:100) > tail(sort(a),5) [1] 96 97 98 99 100 If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
