Hi R users,
I am trying to create a matrix, but R has problem with the size of dim,
wondering if there is anything that I can do?

No. See ?"Memory-limts", and consider a sparse matrix (e.g. package Matrix).

Had this worked 'a' would have used 8*147456^2 = 174GB of storage, about 10x the R maximum object size.


a <- diag(147456)
Error in array(0, c(n, p)) : 'dim' specifies too large an array

Thanks for your help
Rostam
