Dear Kindra,
I think you are talking about...
matrix(1:9, nrow=3, dimnames=list(NULL, c("First","Second","Third")))
First Second Third
[1,] 1 4 7
[2,] 2 5 8
[3,] 3 6 9
If I am correct, what you are missing is that "dimnames" requires a
list with two elements, the rownames, and the colnames. As Ted
pointed out an alternate is to use colnames() on the matrix after you
have created it.
I hope that helps,
Josh
