R help - Mar 2008 - How to cbind or rbind different lengths vectors/arrays without repeating the elements of the shorter vectors/arrays ?

Hi,

How to cbind or rbind different lengths vectors/arrays without repeating the
elements of the shorter vectors/arrays ?
> cbind(1:2, 1:10)
      [,1] [,2]
 [1,]    1    1
 [2,]    2    2
 [3,]    1    3
 [4,]    2    4
 [5,]    1    5
 [6,]    2    6
 [7,]    1    7
 [8,]    2    8
 [9,]    1    9
[10,]    2   10

Try converting them to time series, cbinding and unconverting:

cbind(x = ts(x), y = ts(y))[TRUE, ]

I don't think you can. What is your desired output?  

You can always do c(1:2, 1:10)
