===PC4. Compare two vectors===
Load your vector from [[../Problem set 4]] again (you might want to give it a new name so it's not called <code>d</code>) and perform the same cleanup steps you did in PC2.5 and PC2.6 last week (recode negative values as missing and log-transform the data). Now, compare the vector <code>x</code> from Problem Set #1 with the first column (<code>x</code>) of the data you imported for this assignment (Problem Set #2, i.e., the current dataset you just imported from a .csv file). They should be similar, but are they ''exactly'' the same? Use R code to show your answer.
