Hi everyone.

I have a DF with the first column being my independant variable and
all
other columns the dependent variables.

Something like:

x       y1      y2      y3
...     ...     ...     ...
...     ...     ...     ...

What I'm trying to do is to perform a linear model for each of my
"y". It is
pretty simple with loops, but I'm trying to vectorize it using
*apply*.

For instance, I tried something like:

apply(DF, 1, function(DF){lm(DF[,1] ~ Band1[,2:5])})

apply( DF[2:5], 2, function(x){lm(DF[,1] ~ x)})

You need to use the variable name that you created in the function
call and loop over columns, not rows.

I read the request wrong. It would be:

apply( DF[2:5], 2, function(y){y ~ DF$x)})

Another possibility: from ?lm:

"If response is a matrix a linear model is fitted separately by
 least-squares to each column of the matrix."

But apparently it does not work.

For about four or five reasons.
