One possibility might be Val <- outer(0:n, 0:n, function(i, j) ifelse(i <= j, u^i*d^(j-i), 0))

Hello everyone. I use double for loops to fill in matrices, but there are surely better (and computationally faster) ways to perform that task. Could someone show me, given the following example of a double for loop, how this could be done? It is much easier to learn by examples. Val <- matrix(0, nrow=n+1, ncol=n+1) for( i in 0:n){ for(j in 0:i){ Val[j+1, i+1] <- u^j*d^(i-j) } } Thank you in advance! -- Jonas Malmros ______________________________________________ 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. ______________________________________________ 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.
