Hi Nathan,

I have two matrices:
m1 <- matrix(1,4,4)
m1
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,] 1 1 1 1
[2,] 1 1 1 1
[3,] 1 1 1 1
[4,] 1 1 1 1
m2 <- matrix(0,3,3)
diag(m2) <- 1
m2
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 1 0 0
[2,] 0 1 0
[3,] 0 0 1
I want to get indicies from m2 such that they match indicies as
though they came
from the lower right of m1. Here's how things work:
ind1 <- which(m1 == 1)
ind1
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
ind2 <- which(m2 == 1)
ind2
[1] 1 5 9
I would like ind2 to be offset so they look like indicies from the
lower right
of m1:
ind2
[1] 6 11 16
I have written some utility functions I use often[1], and have
"sub2ind" function that works in a similar fashion to the MATLAB
function of the same name. It's somehow long and convoluted because
you can send in your arguments 12 different ways from sunday, so:
sub2ind <- function(x, y, nrow, ncol=NULL) {
## Returns a linear index for the (x,y) coordinates passed in.
if (is.matrix(x) || is.data.frame(x)) {
stopifnot(ncol(x) == 2)
if (!missing(y)) {
if (missing(nrow)) {
nrow <- y
} else {
ncol <- nrow
nrow <- y
}
}
y <- x[,2]
x <- x[,1]
}
if (is.matrix(nrow)) {
d <- dim(nrow)
nrow <- d[1]
ncol <- d[2]
} else if (is.null(ncol)) {
stop("Dimensions of matrix under-specified")
}
# Sanity check to ensure we got each var doing what it should be
doing
if (length(x) != length(y) || length(nrow) != 1 || length(ncol) !=
1) {
stop("I'm confused")
}
((x - 1) + ((y - 1) * nrow)) + 1
}
R> m1 <- matrix(1,4,4)

row col
[1,] 2 2
[2,] 3 3
[3,] 4 4
R> my.ind2 <- sub2ind(ind2, nrow=4, ncol=4)
# my.ind2 <- sub2ind(ind2[,1], ind2[,2], 4, 4)
# my.ind2 <- sub2ind(ind2[,1], ind2[,2], m1)

I think that gets you to where you want to be :-)

[1] They can be found here if your intersted, there isn't much
documentation there, but I'll fix that some time later :-)
