How about: tmp <- expand.grid(one = 1:11, two = 1:11) tmp$week <- ( ( tmp$one + tmp$two ) %% 11 ) + 1
# reformat for simplicity tmp2 <- tmp[ order(tmp$week), ] tmp3 <- tmp2[ tmp2$one < tmp2$two , ] ### do some checks to make sure everyone plays everyone ### exactly once and each team plays at most 1 game per week. table(tmp3$week) dim(tmp3) with(tmp3, table(one,two)) with(tmp3, table(one,week)) with(tmp3, table(two,week)) reformatting to the desired structure is left to the user. -- Gregory (Greg) L.
