You seem to be looking for 'aperm'.

There is a chapter in 'S Poetry' (available
on http://www.burns-stat.com) that talks
about working with higher dimensional
arrays.  I don't think any changes need
to be made for R.

Hello,
I'm at the very beginning of the learning process of this language.
Sorry in advance for the (possible but plausible) stupidity of my question.

I would like to find a way to permute the DIMENSIONS of an array.
Something that sounds like the function "permute()" in matlab.

Given an array C of dimensions c x d x T , for instance, the command

permute(C, [2 1 3])

would provide (in Matlab) an array very similar to C, but this time each
one of the T matrices c x d has changed into its transposed.
Any alternatives to the following (and primitive) 'for' cycle?

*# (previously defined) phi=array with dimensions c(c,d,T)*
*
*
*temp=array(0,dim=c(c,d,T))*
* for(i in 1:T)*
* {*
* temp[,,i]=t(phi[,,i])*
* }*
* phi=temp*
*
*

Thank you very much!
S
