That's good. Try this:
1. put set.seed(1) at the top of the code to make it reproducible.
2. replace body of loop with:
sel_col<-SourceMat[, i]
out <- try(coef(lm(tt~sel_col, na.action=NULL)))
if (!inherits(out, "try-error")) ResultMat[,i] <- out
3. email tends to wrap long lines so try not putting
comments at the end of the line. Put them on a separate
line by themselves.
You will still get the error messages but it won't
stop at them and will run to completion.
