sort in descending order in r

You can use the following R code to sort a vector in descending order and obtain explanations for each step:

# Create a sample vector
vector <- c(5, 2, 8, 1, 9)

# Sort the vector in descending order
sorted_vector <- sort(vector, decreasing = TRUE)

# Print the sorted vector
print(sorted_vector)

Explanation: 1. We create a sample vector using the c() function, which combines the elements into a vector. 2. We use the sort() function to sort the vector in descending order, indicated by the parameter decreasing = TRUE. 3. Finally, we print the sorted vector using the print() function.
