R help - Aug 2006 - How to convert two-dimensional function to matrix?

I'd like to convert a two-dimensional function f(x,y) to a matrix m,
so that m[x,y] = f [x,y]. How can I achieve this?

Thanks,

Lothar

Maybe this helps.
I create an empty matrix first, then apply f to the indices.

f <- function(x, y) { 1000*x + y }

( m <- matrix( data = NA, nrow = 5, ncol = 4 ) )
( m <- f(row(m), col(m)) )

JeeBee.
