Hello again, Let say I have 2 matrices which equal number of columns but different number of rows like:
Mat1 <- matrix(1:20, 4, 5) Mat2 <- matrix(1:25, 5, 5) Now for each column 1-to-5 I need to fetch the corresponding columns of these 2 matrices and add the corresponding elements (ignoring NA values if any). Therefore for the 1st column I need to do: (1+1), (2+2),...,(4+4), (NA+5) and so on And the resulting numbers will be stored in some other matrix Also note that, here I gave the example of addition, however, this can be any user defined function. Is there any R way to do that, without using any for-loop?
