Hi Ale,
maybe I'm wrong but mat(0,_) is not a NumericVector, but a Rcpp::MatrixRow.
So your function sum() is being called with arguments of the wront type
(the error
message is saying that).
If instead you select a column mat( _, 0) you have a conversion to a
NumericVector.
I've encountered the same issue a couple of time.
