Hi all,

I have a binary matrix with NAs included.  Each row and column
includes at least one NA, so I don't want to omit them.  Is there a
way to sum across rows and columns, ignoring the NAs but not deleting
the row or column?  If not, I suppose I can write a loop function, but
I have learned that it is best to stay away from loops if possible.

Thanks for any help,

Wade

Hi Wade,

The rowSums() and colSums() functions have a "na.rm" argument that you could set to TRUE.

Would this solve your problem?

Cheers,
