try this: V <- var(matrix(rnorm(100*3), 100, 3)) w <- c(0.5, 0.3, 0.2)
V * (w %o% w) I hope it helps.

Hello All, I have a covariance matrix, generated by read.table, and cov: co<-cov(read.table("c:/r.x")) X Y Z X 0.0012517684 0.0002765438 0.0007887114 Y 0.0002765438 0.0002570286 0.0002117336 Z 0.0007887114 0.0002117336 0.0009168750 And a weight vector generated by w<- read.table("c:/r.weights") X Y Z 1 0.5818416 0.2158531 0.2023053 I want to compute the product of the matrix and vectors termwise to generate a 3x3 matrix, where m[i,j]=w[i]*co[i,j]*w[j]. 0.000423773 7.47216E-08 4.41255E-08 7.47216E-08 1.96566E-11 4.29229E-11 4.41255E-08 4.29229E-11 4.11045E-11 Is this possible without writing explicit loops?
