Hi there fellow R-users,
Im seeing some strange behaviour when I multiply a vector by a matrix
Here is my script:
> tr
1 2 3 4 5 6
0.2217903 0.1560525 0.1487908 0.1671354 0.1590643 0.1471667
>
> ex1
a b c d e f
1 0.2309579 -3.279045 -0.6694697 -1.1024404 0.2303928 -1.5527404
2 -0.2865357 -2.519789 -0.1138712 -0.3571832 -2.6727913 -0.3296945
> is.vector(tr)
[1] TRUE
> is.data.frame(ex1)
[1] TRUE
> tr* ex1[1,]
a b c d e f
1 0.05122423 -0.5117031 -0.09961092 -0.1842569 0.03664727 -0.2285117
> (tr* ex1)[1,]
a b c d e f
1 0.05122423 -0.4878917 -0.1064887 -0.2445106 0.03428033 -0.2469855
Notice that the output from tr * ex[1,] is different from (tr* ex1)[1,]
Especially element number 4.
I would naturally expect both vectors to be equivalent.
Can anyone shed any light on my predicament??
