So I have a list of coordinates that I perform a chull on.
X <- matrix(stats::rnorm(100), ncol = 2)
hpts <- chull(X)
chull would return something like "[1] 1 3 44 16 43 9 31 41". I want to then multiple X by another vector to return only the values of X that are in the result set of chull. So for example [-2.1582511,-2.1761699,-0.5796294]*[1,0,1,...] = [-2.1582511,0,-0.5796294...] would be the result. I just don't know how to populate the second vector correctly.
Y <- matrix(0, ncol = 1,nrow=50) #create a vector with nothing
# how do I fill vector y with a 1 or 0 based on the results from chull what do I do next?
X[,1] * Y
X[,2] * Y
Thanks,
To return only the values of X that are in the result set of hpts, use
> X[hpts]

I read it like "X such that hpts", or "the values of hpts that are in X"
Of course, these values of X are different from yours, due to my values of rnorm
To get a vector of 1s and 0s signifying results use
> Y <- ifelse(X[,1] %in% X[hpts], 1, 0)
> Y
