I would like to use lapply as there is a parallel version of lapply called
mclapply.
My purpose is to convert
for (i in c(1:dimx)){
for (j in c(1:dimy)){
Powermap[i,j] <- Pr(c(i,j),c(PRX,PRY),f)
}}
to something that can run in parallel with mclapply:
I am not sure then how to store the results of lapply(mclapply) correctly to
Powermap matrix. That is the reason I put the assignment inside the return
statement.
For example this does not do what I want to
Powermap[i,j]<-unlist(mclapply(1:nrow(ij),function(rowId) { return
(Pr(c(ij$i[rowId],ij$j[rowId]),c(PRX,PRY),f)
How can I try this out?
Best Regards
Alex
