you can use indexing, e.g.,

mat <- matrix(rnorm(20), 4, 5)

mat
mat[rep(1:nrow(mat), 3), ]


I hope it helps.

Dear R users,I'm facing a trivial problem, but I really can't solve it. I've
tried a dozen of codes, but I can't get the result I want.
The question is: I have a dataframe like this one

[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5]
[1,]    1    2    3    4    5
[2,]    2    5    5    4    9
[3,]    1    6    8    1    2
[4,]    8    6    4    1    5

made up of decimal numbers, of course.
I want to append this dataframe to itself a number x of times, i.e. 3. That
is I want a dataframe like this


[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5]
[1,]    1    2    3    4    5
[2,]    2    5    5    4    9
[3,]    1    6    8    1    2
[4,]    8    6    4    1    5
[5,]    1    2    3    4    5
[6,]    2    5    5    4    9
[7,]    1    6    8    1    2
[8,]    8    6    4    1    5
[9,]    1    2    3    4    5
[10,]    2    5    5    4    9
[11,]    1    6    8    1    2
[12,]    8    6    4    1    5

I'm searching for an "authomatic" way to do this (I've already used the
rbind re-writing x times the name of the frame...), as it must enter a
function where one argument is exactly the number x of times to repeat this
frame.

Any ideas??
Thanks in advance!

Niccolò
