2016-12-08 Thread John P. Nolan
Dear All, I regularly want to "apply" some function to an array in a way that the arguments to the user function depend on the index on which the apply is working. A simple example is: A <- array( runif(160), dim=c(5,4,8) ) x <- matrix( runif(32), nrow=4, ncol=8 ) b <- runif(8) f1 <- function
