Thanks, Martin. I missed the duplication. My apology -- old age is asserting it's presence.
Then my response is: I think the documentation is correct as written: > a <- matrix(rep(1:3,2), nr=3) > a [,1] [,2] [1,] 1 1 [2,] 2 2 [3,] 3 3 > duplicated(a) [1] FALSE FALSE FALSE > ## Note: Row major by default ! > duplicated(a, MAR = 2) [1] FALSE TRUE Again, apologies for my silly error.
