Details
If more than one mapping between classification and truth
corresponds to the minimum number of classification errors,
only one possible set of misclassified observations is returned.
a <- rep(1:3, 3)
a
b <- rep(c("A", "B", "C"), 3)
b
classError(a, b)
a <- sample(1:3, 9, replace = TRUE)
a
b <- sample(c("A", "B", "C"), 9, replace = TRUE)
b
classError(a, b)
