Basic For Loops (Loops)
1. The code below prints the numbers 1 through 5 one line at a time. Modify it to print each of these numbers multiplied by 3.
numbers <- c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
for (number in numbers){
print(number)
}
2. Write a for loop that loops over the following vector and prints out the mass in kilograms (mass_kg = 2.2 * mass_lb
)
mass_lbs <- c(2.2, 3.5, 9.6, 1.2)
3. Complete the code below so that it prints out the name of each bird one line at a time.
birds = c('robin', 'woodpecker', 'blue jay', 'sparrow')
for (i in 1:length(_________)){
print(birds[__])
}
4. Complete the code below so that it stores one area for each radius.
radius <- c(1.3, 2.1, 3.5)
areas <- vector(_____ = "numeric", length = ______)
for (__ in 1:length(________)){
areas[__] <- pi * radius[i] ^ 2
}
areas
5. Write a for loop that loops over the following vector and stores the height in meters (height_m = height_ft / 3.28) in a new vector. After the for loop make sure to display the vector to the console by running the vectors name on its own line.
height_ft <- c(5.1, 6.3, 5.7, 5.4)
6. Complete the code below to calculate an area for each pair of lengths
and widths
, store the areas in a vector, and after they are all calculated print them out:
lengths = c(1.1, 2.2, 1.6)
widths = c(3.5, 2.4, 2.8)
areas <- vector(length = __________)
for (i in _____) {
areas[__] <- lengths[__] * widths[__]
}
areas
