title: How to access single elements in a table in R
body: <p>How do I grab elements from a table in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_%28programming_language%29" rel="nofollow noreferrer">R</a>?</p>
  <p>My <em>data</em> looks like this:</p>
  <pre><code>         V1     V2
  1      12.448 13.919
  2      22.242  4.606
  3      24.509  0.176
  </code></pre>
  <p>etc...</p>
  <p>I basically just want to grab elements individually. I'm getting confused with all the R terminology, like vectors, and I just want to be able to get at the individual elements.</p>
  <p>Is there a function where I can just do like <code>data[v1][1]</code> and get the element in row 1 column 1?</p>
