[R] if else for cumulative sum error

Thank you for replies.

David,

I tried your modified form

for (i in 1:seq_along(rownames(dadosmax))){
  dadosmax$enchday[i] <- if ( (sum(dadosmax$above[i:(i+44)])) >= 45) 1 else
0
}

However, I'm receiving this warning:
Warning message:
In 1:seq_along(rownames(dadosmax)) :
  numerical expression has 2720 elements: only the first used

I can't figure out why only the first row was calculated...
Any ideas?
