A utility that returns a list with the components
equivalent to sort(x), order(x), rank(x, ties.method = "first").
Usage
sortrank(x)
Arguments
x
vector compatible with sort(x)
Value
A list with components
x
the sorted input vector x
ix
the permutation = order(x) which rearranges x into ascending order
r
the ranks of x
Details
This utility exists to save a little time on large vectors when two or all three of the sort(), order(), rank() results are required. In case of ties, the ranks component matches rank(x, ties.method = "first").
