Re: [R] apply for list or list -> array

2006-09-19 Thread Dimitris Rizopoulos
for lists look at ?lapply() and ?sapply(); for your 2nd question try something like: array(unlist(aa), dim = c(3, 3, 2)) I hope it helps. Best, Dimitris Dimitris Rizopoulos Ph.D. Student Biostatistical Centre School of Public Health Catholic University of Leuven Address: Kapucijnenvoer

[R] apply for list or list -> array

Dear all, I have the following list, "aa", composed of two 3*3 tables. I would like to use "apply" function to summarize it, but "apply" cannot handle "list". I want to do it without using any interation. 1. Is there any function like "apply" for list? 2. Is there any way to transform that "l

Hi Duncan, Thanks for that. In the light of what you've suggested, I'm now using the following: # generate a random integer from 0 to t (inclusive) if (t < 1000) { # to avoid memory problems... M <- sample(t, 1) } else { while (M > t) { M <- as.integer(urand(1,min=0, max=

Re: [R] Question on apply() with more information...

2006-09-19 Thread Petr Pikal
Hi both lapply and mapply can give you what you want but you have to select only desired part. e.g. spec.apply<- function(sl, x) { d<-dim(x)[1] d2<-dim(x)[2]*2*d vec<-seq(d,d2,2) Z<-as.numeric(mapply(predict,sl, x))[vec] dim(Z) <-c(d,length(vec)/d) Z } but it is probably slower than simple fo
