also unrelated: if I have two vectors and I want to combine them to form a matrix ,is cbind (or rbind) the most direct way to do this?

e.g.

x=c(1,2,3)
y=c(3,4,5)
z=rbind(x,y)

That is ok. Also effective would be:

z <- matrix( c(x,y), ncol=length(x) )


Would need byrow=TRUE for that to behave as desired.

     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]    1    2    3
[2,]    3    4    5
