Q1. What is the difference between the expression c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) and the expression c(5:1)?
a. They both produce a factor with five numbers but the first is in ascending order and the second is in descending order.
b. The two expressions produce the same result.
c. One produces a factor and the other produces a vector.
d. They both produce a vector with five numbers but the first is in ascending order and the second is in descending order.
Answer: d. They both produce a vector with five numbers but the first is in ascending order and the second is in descending order.
