HI, I am really messing up to make a symmetrical matrix using upper.tri() &
lower.tri() function. Here is my code:
> set.seed(1)
> mat = matrix(rnorm(25), 5, 5)
> mat
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5]
[1,] -0.6264538 -0.8204684 1.5117812 -0.04493361 0.91897737
[2,] 0.1836433 0.4874291 0.3898432 -0.01619026 0.78213630
[3,] -0.8356286 0.7383247 -0.6212406 0.94383621 0.07456498
[4,] 1.5952808 0.5757814 -2.2146999 0.82122120 -1.98935170
[5,] 0.3295078 -0.3053884 1.1249309 0.59390132 0.61982575
> mat[lower.tri(mat)] = mat[upper.tri(mat)]
> mat
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5]
[1,] -0.62645381 -0.82046838 1.51178117 -0.04493361 0.91897737
[2,] -0.82046838 0.48742905 0.38984324 -0.01619026 0.78213630
[3,] 1.51178117 -0.01619026 -0.62124058 0.94383621 0.07456498
[4,] 0.38984324 0.94383621 0.78213630 0.82122120 -1.98935170
[5,] -0.04493361 0.91897737 0.07456498 -1.98935170 0.61982575
Which is not coming as symmetrical function. Can anyone point me on the correct
way of using upper, lower.try() function to get a symmetrical matrix?
Thanks,
