There are two methods to create a vector with repeated values in R but both of them have different approaches, first one is by repeating each element of the vector and the second repeats the elements by a specified number of times. Both of these methods use rep function to create the vectors.

Example

Consider the below examples −

> x1<-rep(c(1,2,3,4,5),each=10)
> x1
[1] 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4
[39] 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
> x2<-rep(c(1,2,3,4,5),times=10)
> x2
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3
[39] 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5
> x3<-rep(c(1,2,3,4,5),times=c(10,10,10,10,10))
