Hi Greg,
Thanks.
Here is one approach to speeding up the 1st method that I had suggested:
n <- 10000
set.seed(123)
rtrg <- matrix(NA, n, 3)
system.time(for (i in 1:n) rtrg[i,] <- diff(c(0, sort(runif(2)), 1)))
set.seed(123)
system.time({
tmp <- matrix(runif(n*2), n, 2, byrow=TRUE)
rtrg.1 <- cbind(pmin(tmp[,1], tmp[,2]), abs(tmp[,1] - tmp[,2]),1 -
pmax(tmp[,1], tmp[,2]))
})
all.equal(rtrg, rtrg.1)
Now, how can we use vis.test to test differences between these?
Best,
Ravi.
