Hi I have
>x<-matrix(c(1,2,3,4), ncol = 2) >x [,1] [,2] [1,] 1 3 [2,] 2 4 I'd like these two be divided by their column totals. so 1/3 and 2/3 and 3/7 and 4/7. The obvious >x/colSums(x) [,1] [,2] [1,] 0.3333333 1.0000000 [2,] 0.2857143 0.5714286 gives me the wrong results for off diagnal ones, since it divides the first row by 3 and second by 7. The inelegant >t(t(x)/colSums(x)) [,1] [,2] [1,] 0.3333333 0.4285714 [2,] 0.6666667 0.5714286 gives me the right thing. I was wondering if there is any better way of getting what I want. thanks Alex _________________________________________________________________ Get real-time traffic reports with Windows Live Local Search ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
