Hello I would appreciate any help with the following: Given a matrix with col and row names, such as > matrix1 <- matrix(rnorm(16),4) > rownames(matrix1) <- LETTERS(1:4) > colnames(matrix1) <- letters[1:4] > matrix1 a b c d A 1.6845882 -0.27809792 -0.874798414 -0.2143993 B -0.9283862 -1.50640703 -0.723568218 -0.4716539 C -1.6945380 -0.12336987 0.003299728 0.1413674 D -0.2715407 -0.05752609 -0.310539234 -1.1146264
I need to create a new matrix whose colnames are A-a, B-b, C-c and D-d. So the col and rownames of matrix1 are separated by an hyphen. It is probably very simple, but cannot find the way. Thank you very much for your time. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/use-row-and-col-names-of-a-matrix-to-create-colnames-of-a-new-one-tp4641829.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
