Hello, R-users,
 
I have a datafile with 37313 records and each record has 5 different 
measurements on the same variables. The format looks like this: treeID, VIG0, 
VIG1, VIG2, VIG3, VIG4
I was trying to convert the one row record to 5 rows record with format like 
this (treeID, MEASUREMENT, VIGOR). My code like this: 
 
treeMeas<-matrix(data=0,nrow=(length(tree1$indivTree)*5), ncol=3)
colnames(treeMeas)<-c("indivTree", "meas", "vigor")
for(i in 1:length(tree1$indivTree))
{ 
  treeMeas[(i-1)*5+1:(i*5),1]<-tree1$indivTree[i]
  treeMeas[(i-1)*5+1:(i*5),2]<-c(0:4)
  treeMeas[(i-1)*5+1:(i*5),3]<-c(tree1$VIG0[i], tree1$VIG1[i], tree1$VIG2[i], 
tree1$VIG3[i], tree1$VIG4[i])
  }
 
When I run the code, I always got error message like this " Error in 
treeMeas[(i - 1) * 5 + 1:(i * 5), 1] <- tree1$indivTree[i] :   subscript out of 
bounds". I couldn't figure out why subscript out of bounds. Is this because the 
matrix is too big (186565 by 3)? Any one can help? Thank you very much.
