Hi Ivan,
Thanks for your help, your initial suggestion did not work, but that is no
doubt down to my lack of making sense!
Here is a short example of my dataset. Basically the loop is set up to match
the ID with the TO column based on DIST = 0. So A1 = 2, A1.1 =1, A2 = 4,
A2.1 = 3. That is fine for HR 9, but for HR 10 the numbers no longer match
those IDs so I need to loop the data and store each loop - if that makes
sense.
FROM TO DIST ID HR DD MM YY ANIMAL DAY
1 1 1 2.63981 'A1' 9 30 9 7 1 1
2 1 2 0.00000 'A1' 9 30 9 7 1 1

34 1 3 12.09194 'A2.1' 10 30 9 7 7 1
35 1 4 3.40726 'A2.1' 10 30 9 7 7 1
36 1 5 0.00000 'A2.1' 10 30 9 7 7 1
37 1 1 0.00000 'MALE1' 10 30 9 7 12 1
38 1 2 7.44743 'MALE1' 10 30 9 7 12 1
39 1 3 3.53695 'MALE1' 10 30 9 7 12 1
40 1 4 6.13176 'MALE1' 10 30 9 7 12 1
41 1 5 9.03345 'MALE1' 10 30 9 7 12 1
So the loop is:
DIST_LOOP<-matrix(NA,NA,ncol=11)
for (i in 1:33){
SEL_DAY<-seal_dist[seal_dist[,10]==i,]
SEL_DAY[i]=dist[i]
print(paste("DAY", i, "of 33"))
for (s in 1:11){
SEL_HR<-SEL_DAY[SEL_DAY[,5]==s,]
print(paste("HR", s, "of 11"))
indx <- subset(SEL_HR, SEL_HR$DIST == 0)
SEL_HR$TO_ID <- indx$ID[match(SEL_HR$TO, indx$TO)]
DIST_LOOP[i,]<-SEL_HR
}
}
But storing the data in the DIST_LOOP matrix doesn't work, I am just told in
another post that a list might be better than a matrix?
I hope this makes more sense!?
Many thanks,
Ross
