How can you use vectorization in R to avoid the need for if-else statements?
- By applying functions or operations directly to vectors or data frames
- By using the ifelse() function for vectorized conditional operations
- By using the apply family of functions to iterate over vectors or data frames
- All of the above
Vectorization in R allows you to apply functions or operations directly to vectors or data frames, which eliminates the need for explicit if-else statements. The ifelse() function is specifically designed for vectorized conditional operations, providing a concise and efficient alternative to if-else statements when working with vectors or data frames.
