Hi,
I have a list (very long, thousands, and unsorted) of numbers r={n1,n2...}
and for a given a number m I want to split it in the two sublists
(unsorted, same order) u={elements<m], v={elements>m}.
Now I use this *old-style* method:
u = v = {};
For[i = 1, i <= Length[r], i++,
tmp = r[[i]];
If[tmp > m , AppendTo[u, tmp], AppendTo[v, tmp]];
]
Any suggestion for a more efficient (and elegant) method?
Also oneliners are well accepted.
Many thanks, Roberto
