Mike-
You can use the traceback function to see where the error is:
> bob <- matrix(rnorm(100*180), nrow=180)
> yyy <- rnorm(180)
> fit1 <- cv.glmnet(bob, yyy, family="mgaussian")
Error in rep("(Intercept)", nrow(a0)) : invalid 'times' argument
> traceback()
6: predict.multnet(object, newx, s, type, exact, offset, ...)
5: predict.mrelnet(glmnet.object, type = "nonzero")
4: predict(glmnet.object, type = "nonzero")
3: lapply(X = X, FUN = FUN, ...)
2: sapply(predict(glmnet.object, type = "nonzero"), length)
1: cv.glmnet(bob, yyy, family = "mgaussian")
So, thee error is in the predict.multnet function. If you peak at that
function, you see where the function falls apart. It seems that the
function wants a0 to be a matrix but in this example it is a vector. I'm
not familiar enough with the package to offer advice on how to fix this.
