Dear All,
I am trying to fill in a blank vector ("a") with one value at a
time, with
the value of the number of rows in a randomized dataset with
rowSums=0.
Below is the code I've got so far, but what I want to be as the last
line is
" a[1st NA,]=nz"
such that this will run until all of my NAs are replaced with an
integer
value based on randomizations.
a<-matrix(nrow=1000,ncol=1)
while(sum(is.na(a)>0))
{
z<-matrix(rbinom(832, 1, prob = 0.048), nrow = 32)
rs<-rowSums(z)
nz<-length(rs[rs==0])
a[,]=nz
}
Thank you for your help!
It's not really clear to me what you want to actually replace each NA
value with. But it sounds like your 'general' question is how to find
the index of the first value of a vector that is NA.
Let's say your `a` vector has NA values you want to replace, one by one.
any.na <- any(is.na(a))
while (any.na) {
first.na <- which(is.na(a))[1]
a[first.na] <- your.NA.replacing.function()
any.na <- any(is.na(a))
}
HTH,
