Dear R users,

I have two n*1 integer vectors, y1 and y2, where n is very very large.

I'd like to compute


elbp = 4^(y1) * 5^(y2) * sum_{i=0}^{max(y1, y2)} [{ (y1-i)! * (i)! *
(y2-i)! }^(-1)];


that is, I need to compute "elbp" for each (y1, y2) pair.

So I made R code like below, but I don't think it's efficient

Would you plz tell me how to avoid this "for" loop blow??



_____________________________________________

for (k in 1:n){
ymax <- max( y1[k], y2[k] )

i <- 0:ymax

sums<- -lgamma(y1[k]-i+1)-lgamma(i+1)-lgamma(y2[k]-i+1)

maxsums <- max(sums)

sums <- sums - maxsums

lsum <- log( sum(exp(sums)) ) + maxsums

lbp[k] <- y1[k]*log(4) + y2[k]*log(5) + lsum
        
}
elbp <- exp(lbp)

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
