[R] manipulating arrays

[Stephen Tucker]

I think you are looking for append(), though it won't modify the object
in-place like Python [I believe that is a product of R's 'functional
programming' philosophy].

might want to check this entertaining thread:
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/11/7727.html

in this example it would be like

> c(X[1], 0, X[2:5])
[1] 1 0 2 3 4 5
> append(X,0,1)
[1] 1 0 2 3 4 5
