You can use one of the following methods to combine two vectors in R:
Method 1: Combine Two Vectors Into One Vector
new_vector
Method 2: Combine Two Vectors Into a Matrix
new_matrix
Method 3: Combine Two Vectors Into a Data Frame
new_df frame(vector1, vector2)
The following examples show how to use each method in practice.
Method 1: Combine Two Vectors Into One Vector
The following code shows how to combine two vectors into one new vector:
#define vectors
vector1 #combine two vectors into one vector
new_vector #view resulting vector
new_vector
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Method 2: Combine Two Vectors Into a Matrix
The following code shows how to combine two vectors into a matrix:
#define vectors
vector1 #combine two vectors into matrix
new_matrix #view resulting matrix
new_matrix
vector1 vector2
[1,] 1 6
[2,] 2 7
[3,] 3 8
[4,] 4 9
[5,] 5 10

Method 3: Combine Two Vectors Into a Data Frame
The following code shows how to combine two vectors into a data frame:
#define vectors vector1 #combine two vectors into data frame new_df frame(vector1, vector2) #view resulting data frame new_df vector1 vector2 1 1 6 2 2 7 3 3 8 4 4 9 5 5 10
Notice that each original vector is now a unique column in the resulting data frame.
