Hello,
Try
x <- matrix(1:18, ncol = 6)
sapply(seq_len(ncol(x)), function(i) x[, i] - rowMeans(x[, -i]))
Hope this helps,

Dear UseRs,Extremely sorry for a basic question. I have a matrix of 19 rows and 365
columns. what i want to do is the following...First i want to leave out column number 1
and want to calculate the row wise mean of the remaining columns, which will obviously
give me 365 values in one column, and then subtracting these values from the column i
left out i.e. col=1 then i want to leave out column 2 and calculate the row wise mean of
the remaining columns which includes column 1 too and then subtracting these values from
the column i left out i.e. col=2.and then continuing this process the last column. i know
a kind of "manual way" of doing things but its extremely long and laborious.Is
there any loop command or shorter way??
thanks in advanceregardseliza
