\title{Find Nearest Element of Reference for each Element of X}
\description{
Find nearest element of a sorted reference vector and to each element of x.
}
\usage{
nearestReftoX(x, reference, \ldots)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{numeric vector.}
\item{reference}{numeric vector, sorted in increasing order.}
\item{\dots}{other arguments as passed to \code{findInterval}.}
}
\details{
This function finds the element of a reference table (\code{reference}) that is closest to each element of an incoming vector (\code{x}).
The function is a simple wrapper for \code{findInterval} in the base package.
It calls \code{findInterval} with \code{vec} equal to the mid-points between the reference values.
}
\value{
Integer vector giving indices of elements of \code{reference}.
}
