The apply function also works with multi-dimensional arrays, I think this is what you want to achieve using a 3d array:
aaa <- array(NA, dim = c(2, dim(a))) aaa[1,,] <- a aaa[2,,] <- a2 apply(aaa, 3, function(x)lm(x[1,]~x[2,])) ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
