The following code is slow and ugly: count<-0 for(i in 1:nrow(ver)) for(j in 1:ncol(ver)) { count<-count+1 x[count]<-pt$x[ver[i,j]] y[count]<-pt$y[ver[i,j]] z[count]<-pt$z[ver[i,j]] } Please help me make it better. Thanks! Bill
maybe you want something like this: x <- c(t(pt$x)) Best, --D ---- Dimitris Rizopoulos Ph.D. Student Biostatistical Centre School of Public Health Catholic University of Leuven Address: Kapucijnenvoer 35, Leuven, Belgium Tel: +32/16/336899 Fax: +32/16/337015 Web: http://www.med.kuleuven.ac.be/biostat/ http://www.student.kuleuven.ac.be/~m0390867/dimitris.htm ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Simpson" <William.Simpson at drdc-rddc.gc.ca> To: "r-help" <r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch> Sent: Friday, April 22, 2005 2:58 PM Subject: [R] ugly loop> The following code is slow and ugly: > > count<-0 > for(i in 1:nrow(ver)) > for(j in 1:ncol(ver)) > { > count<-count+1 > x[count]<-pt$x[ver[i,j]] > y[count]<-pt$y[ver[i,j]] > z[count]<-pt$z[ver[i,j]] > } > > Please help me make it better. > > Thanks! > > Bill > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide! > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html >
To clarify: I want to get rid of the loop over i,j Here is a simpler example. ver is a 2D matrix count<-0 for(i in 1:nrow(ver)) for(j in 1:ncol(ver)) { count<-count+1 x[count]<-ver[i,j] } Bill

Almost there; you need the transpose of v, since Bill originally had columns changing faster: e.g. x <- pt$x[t(ver)] -----Original Message----- From: Marc Schwartz <MSchwartz at medanalytics.com> Sent: Apr 22, 2005 9:17 AM To: Bill Simpson <William.Simpson at drdc-rddc.gc.ca> Cc: R-Help <r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch> Subject: Re: [R] ugly loop On Fri, 2005-04-22 at 08:58 -0400, Bill Simpson wrote:> The following code is slow and ugly: > > count<-0 > for(i in 1:nrow(ver)) > for(j in 1:ncol(ver)) > { > count<-count+1 > x[count]<-pt$x[ver[i,j]] > y[count]<-pt$y[ver[i,j]] > z[count]<-pt$z[ver[i,j]] > } > > Please help me make it better. > > Thanks!The following should work:> ver <- matrix(sample(1:16, 16), ncol = 4) > pt <- data.frame(x = sample(1:16, 16),+ y = sample(1:16, 16), + z = sample(1:16, 16))> ver[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [1,] 8 9 5 13 [2,] 14 16 1 10 [3,] 12 2 11 7 [4,] 6 3 4 15> ptx y z 1 6 15 15 2 9 2 3 3 11 1 5 4 14 4 10 5 13 7 14 6 1 14 7 7 15 10 4 8 10 5 12 9 4 12 2 10 8 8 13 11 16 11 1 12 7 13 9 13 2 16 11 14 3 9 16 15 5 6 8 16 12 3 6> x <- pt$x[ver] > y <- pt$y[ver] > z <- pt$z[ver]> x[1] 10 3 7 1 4 12 9 11 13 6 16 14 2 8 15 5> y[1] 5 9 13 14 12 3 2 1 7 15 11 4 16 8 10 6> z[1] 12 16 9 7 2 6 3 5 14 15 1 10 11 13 4 8 Keep in mind that a matrix is a vector with dims, so you can fill a vector from the matrix simply by doing the indexing with a single value, which will do the fill indexed column by column.
