Hi,

Can someone please give me a pointer as to how I can set values of an array?


See

        ?Subscript

and study the examples.

What do you suppose

        array( 1:4, dim=c(2, 2) )[1][2]

is? R is not C.

HTH,

Chuck




Why does the code below not work?

my_array <- array(dim=c(2,2))
my_array[][] = 0
my_array
    [,1] [,2]
[1,]    0    0
[2,]    0    0

for(i in seq(1,2,by=1)){
for(j in seq(1,2,by=1)){
my_array[i][j] = 5
}
}

Warning messages:
1: In my_array[i][j] = 5 :
 number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length
2: In my_array[i][j] = 5 :
 number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length

my_array
    [,1] [,2]
[1,]    5    0
[2,]    5    0
