Hi:
If you want the literal character strings, this works:
x<-c(1, 2, 3)
> y<-c(4,5,6)
> outer(x, y, function(x, y) paste('(', x, ',', y, ')', sep = '') )
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] "(1,4)" "(1,5)" "(1,6)"
[2,] "(2,4)" "(2,5)" "(2,6)"
[3,] "(3,4)" "(3,5)" "(3,6)"
However, I have the sense you want to use the values of x and y as
coordinates in a function. This is also a job for outer(); e.g.,
f <- function(x, y) x + 0.5 * y
outer(x, y, f)
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 3 3.5 4
[2,] 4 4.5 5
[3,] 5 5.5 6
If you want to apply a two-dimensional function to a pair of vectors,
outer() may be what you're after.
HTH,
