Assign the poker results of Wednesday to the variable poker_wednesday.

💻 Program Code

# Poker and roulette winnings from Monday to Friday:
poker_vector <- c(140, -50, 20, -120, 240)
roulette_vector <- c(-24, -50, 100, -350, 10)
days_vector <- c("Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday")
names(poker_vector) <- days_vector
names(roulette_vector) <- days_vector

# Define a new variable based on a selection
poker_wednesday <- poker_vector[3]
                        

🖥 Program Output

> # Poker and roulette winnings from Monday to Friday:
> poker_vector <- c(140, -50, 20, -120, 240)
> roulette_vector <- c(-24, -50, 100, -350, 10)
> days_vector <- c("Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday")
> names(poker_vector) <- days_vector
> names(roulette_vector) <- days_vector
> 
> # Define a new variable based on a selection
> poker_wednesday <- poker_vector[3]
> poker_wednesday

Master Programming Through Practical Examples

Improve your coding logic, problem-solving skills and programming confidence by practicing real-world examples with explanations.

🎯 How to learn from this example

First understand the algorithm carefully. Then study the program line-by-line and compare it with the output. Finally, review the explanation section to strengthen your logic and programming understanding.

🔥 Practice suggestion

Rewrite the program without looking at the code. Modify values, conditions or logic and run it again. This helps improve confidence and strengthens coding skills much faster.
