Hi there,
I've got this matrix D with, say 10 rows and 20 columns. For each row I want
to sum the first 3 non zero elements and put them in a vector z.
So if the first row D[1,] is
0 3 5 0 8 9 3 2 4 0
then I want z
z<-D[1,2]+D[1,3]+D[1,5]
But if there are less than 3 non zero elements, those should be summed. If
there are no non zero elements, the result must be zero.
So if the first row D[1,] is
0 0 3 0 1 0 0 0 0 0
then I want z
z<-D[1,3]+D[1,5]
Hope someone can help me out!
