The last one can be shortened to: > c(aperm(array(1:4, c(2,2,6)),c(1,3,2))) [1] 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4
And it extends to 38 fairly easily: > c(aperm(array(1:38, c(2,38/2,6)),c(1,3,2))) [1] 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4 3 4 5 [26] 6 5 6 5 6 5 6 5 6 5 6 7 8 7 8 7 8 7 8 7 8 7 8 9 10 [51] 9 10 9 10 . . . -- Gregory (Greg) L.
