Given a set of logical vectors, are any of the values true?
Usage
any(..., na.rm = FALSE)
Arguments

one or more logical vectors. Other objects are coerced in

logical. If true |
Details
This is a generic function: methods can be defined for it
directly or via the Summary group generic.
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 na.rm = FALSE and x consists of a mix of FALSE
and NA values, the value is NA.
Note
Prior to R 2.1.0, only NULL and logical, integer, numeric
and complex vectors were accepted.
