Hi,
it's true, simply adding the parenthesis does the trick.
Anyways, I am trying to do it without the loop now.
Thanks for helping out!
Cheers, Dax

I am now trying to sum up all the scores with the following code:
score<-0;
for(j in 1:length(sequence)-1){
score<-score+mscore[sequence[j],sequence[j+1]];

where sequence is the string sequence.
Unfortunately, it does not work and I get the following error message:
Error in "[<-"(`*tmp*`, 1, i, value = numeric(0)) :

You've fallen into a classic trap: 1:length(sequence)-1 does not
mean what one might naturally expect.
sequence<-(1:10)
length(sequence)
[1] 10
1:length(sequence)-1
[1] 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
1:(length(sequence)-1)
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
In other words, "1:length(sequence)" is constructed first, then
1 is subtracted from every element. As a result, you tried to
read from sequence[0], which isn't there.
However, you can make it evaluate "length(sequence)-1" before
constructing 1:(length(sequence)-1), by using the parantheses
to force precedence.
Cheers,
Ted.
