Dear All, I have a question concerning the seq() function arguments when used in a for() loop. I'll simplify this question to make it more clear. Suppose I have a (5*3)matrix s (for ex.) and I need to write a function with for() loop, in each step of the loop I need to generate a sequence whose upper limit is the ith element of the first row of s, then put the resulting sequences in a list. I used the following simple code (I've only included the first part of the function)
> s<-matrix(c(1,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1),nrow=5,byrow=TRUE) > simpfun<- function (x,n,m,p,alpha,beta) + { + LD<-list() + for (i in 1:m-1) + { + LD[[i]]<-seq(0,x[i],1) + } + print(LD) + } > mk<-simpfun(s[1,],n=6,m=4,p=0.3) Error in seq.default(0, x[i], 1) : 'to' must be of length 1 Although x is supposed to be the vector 1 0 1 and thus x[1]=1, x[2]=0,x[3]=1. So I don't get why the error "Error in seq.default(0, x[i], 1) : 'to' must be of length 1" occurs in the first place. Thanks for helping.
