hi, you can try this method. ## if x is a vector x <- runif(1000) ## if sin(1/0) will appear NaN. we make the situation. x[sample(1:length(x),5)] <- 0 z <- suppressWarnings(ifelse(is.na(sin(1/x)),NA,sin(1/x))) is.numeric(z)
## if x is a matrix x=matrix(runif(1000),100,10) x[sample(1:nrow(x),50),sample(1:ncol(x),5)] <- 0 z <- suppressWarnings(ifelse(is.na(sin(1/x)),NA,sin(1/x))) is.numeric(z) On Sat, 28 Mar 2009 01:36:36 +0800, huiming song wrote > hi, everybody, please help me with this question: > > If I want to do iteration for 1000 times, however, for the 500th > iteration, there is NaN appears.
