如何在 R 中创建一个长度为零的数值向量

Simply:

x <- vector(mode="numeric", length=0)

If you read the help for vector (or numeric or logical or character or integer or double, 'raw' or complex etc ) then you will see that they all have a length (or length.out argument which defaults to 0

Therefore

numeric()
logical()
character()
integer()
double()
raw()
complex()
vector('numeric')
vector('character')
vector('integer')
vector('double')
vector('raw')
vector('complex')

All return 0 length vectors of the appropriate atomic modes.

# the following will also return objects with length 0
list()
expression()
vector('list')
vector('expression')

Suppose you want to create a vector x whose length is zero. Now let v be any vector.

> v<-c(4,7,8)
> v
[1] 4 7 8
> x<-v[0]
> length(x)
[1] 0

This isn't a very beautiful answer, but it's what I use to create zero-length vectors:

0[-1]     # numeric
""[-1]    # character
TRUE[-1]  # logical
0L[-1]    # integer

A literal is a vector of length 1, and [-1] removes the first element (the only element in this case) from the vector, leaving a vector with zero elements.

As a bonus, if you want a single NA of the respective type:

0[NA]     # numeric
""[NA]    # character
TRUE[NA]  # logical
0L[NA]    # integer
