Ok, I have got 2 matrices [P,I] and [I,E]. testcontents [P,I]: structure(list(P = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 3L, 3L), .Label = c("p1", "p2", "p3"), class = "factor"), I = structure(c(1L, 2L, 3L, 1L, 4L, 5L, 6L), .Label = c("i1", "i2", "i3", "i4", "i5", "i6"), class = "factor")), .Names = c("P", "I"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -7L)) testcontents [I,E]: structure(list(I = structure(c(1L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 3L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 6L), .Label = c("i1", "i2", "i3", "i4", "i5", "i6"), class = "factor"), E = structure(1:9, .Label = c("e11", "e12", "e21", "e31", "e32", "e41", "e51", "e61", "e62"), class = "factor")), .Names = c("I", "E"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -9L)) I want to create a matrix [P,C,E] where c is one of all unique vectors C within P of one combination of I selected from all possible values in the [I,E] matrix. Note that for each i there can be a different number of e's. I tried to add indices in the testcontent to make the aim more clear. So the result of the [P,C,E] matrix should be something like: structure(list(P = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L), .Label = c("p1", "p2"), class = "factor"), C = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 3L, 3L, 3L, 3L, 4L, 4L, 4L, 5L, 5L, 5L, 5L, 6L, 6L, 6L, 6L, 7L, 7L, 7L, 7L, 8L, 8L, 8L, 8L), .Label = c("c11", "c12", "c13", "c14", "c21", "c22", "c23", "c24"), class = "factor"), E = structure(c(1L, 3L, 4L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 1L, 3L, 5L, 2L, 3L, 5L, 1L, 6L, 7L, 8L, 2L, 6L, 7L, 8L, 1L, 6L, 7L, 9L, 2L, 6L, 7L, 9L), .Label = c("e11", "e12", "e21", "e31", "e32", "e41", "e51", "e61", "e62"), class = "factor")), .Names = c("P", "C", "E"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -28L)) Hopefully it is more clear now.
