Are Some Values True?

Description:

     Given a set of logical vectors, are any of the values true?

Usage:

     any(..., na.rm = FALSE)

Arguments:

     ...: one or more logical vectors.

   na.rm: logical. If true `NA' values are removed before the result is
          computed.

Value:

     Given a sequence of logical arguments, a logical value indicating
     whether or not any of the elements of `x' are `TRUE'.

     The value returned is `TRUE' if any the values in `x' are `TRUE',
     and `FALSE' if all the values in `x' are `FALSE'.

     If `x' consists of a mix of `FALSE' and `NA' values, the value is
     `NA'.

See Also:

     `all', the ``complement'' of `any'.

Examples:

     range(x <- sort(round(rnorm(10) - 1.2,1)))
     if(any(x < 0)) cat("x contains negative values\n")
