Does this do what you want?
> h <- rep(1:4,each=4)
> z <- c(6.25,3.125,2.1,1.6)[match(h,1:4)]
> x <- data.frame(hester.=h,value=z)
cheers,

---------------------------------------------
I suspect some random values should be included, making the code :
> h <- rep(1:4,each=4)
> z <- c(6.25,3.125,2.1,1.6)[match(h,1:4)]
> x <- data.frame(hester.=h,value=z*rnorm(16))
Kind regards
