Dear useRs, i have certain commands for some operations in R. They are good if you have a small dataset but my dataset, apart from what i used in the recent past, is prety large. I want to convert these massive sets of commands into a simple loop. Your help is required on it thanks in advance eliza kindly note: "e" is matrix whose each column has to be executed into a distance vector
##To get a distance matrix >a<-dist(e[,1], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) ##To convert it in a matrix >a<-matrix(a, ncol=1) >b<-dist(e[,2], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >b<-matrix(b, ncol=1) >c<-dist(e[,3], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >c<-matrix(c, ncol=1) >d<-dist(e[,4], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >d<-matrix(d, ncol=1) >ee<-dist(e[,5], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >ee<-matrix(ee, ncol=1) >f<-dist(e[, 6], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >f<-matrix(f, ncol=1) >g<-dist(e[, 7], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >g<-matrix(g, ncol=1) >h<-dist(e[, 8], upper=TRUE, diag=TRUE) >h<-matrix(h, ncol=1) [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
