> I will use the lca method in the e1071 package. But I get the following error: > Error in pas[j, ] <- drop(exp(rep(1, nvar) %*% log(mp))) : > number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length > > Does anybody know this error and knows what this means?
The error means that you are trying to assign a variable of one size to a variable of another fixed size. An example that recreates it is: x <- matrix(1:6, nrow=3) x[1,] <- 1:10 x[1,] cannot be resized from 3 to 10 without affecting the rest of x, so an error is thrown. In your example, the jth row of the matrix pas is a different size from drop(exp(rep(1, nvar) %*% log(mp))). Since you haven't provided a reproducible example (tut tut, read the posting guide) you'll have to do the debugging yourself. To get you started, type traceback() to see where the problem occurs. Now try options(error=recover), and call the lca function again. Now you can examine the values of nvar, mp and pas to see what is going wrong. Regards, Richie.
