Something like this, perhaps: cbind( X, c(Y, rep(NA,length(X)-length(Y))) )
This just extends Y with NA instead of recycling Y. If you are going to cbind() the vectors must be the same length. You *must* have something there. -Don At 1:51 PM -0400 10/4/07, Nair, Murlidharan T wrote: >If I have two vectors >X<-1:10 >Y<-1:5 >When I combine them using cbind, the shorter one is repeated and >both are made of the same length.
