Dear Rusers, The error for the following was that it cannot allocate the vector of length 1920165909. a <- expand.grid(se1=0:100/100, sp1=0:100/100, se2=0:100/100, sp2=0:100/100, DR=0:100/100) How to solve it? Maybe setwd(dir) can, i am not very sure about it. Any ideas about it? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
What are you trying to do? The expand.grid will create an object with 10 billion rows with 5 variables. My guess is that you would need 50G * 8 bytes/word = 400GB just to hold the one object. How much memory do you have on your system? Is there some other approach you can use? You may have problems since I think an object can only have 2^31 values and your would have quite a bit more. I would suggest that you rethink your problem that you are trying to solve.

Out of memory? How large is your physical memory? --- On Tue, 7/28/09, zhijie zhang <rusers.sh@gmail.com> wrote: From: zhijie zhang <rusers.sh@gmail.com> Subject: [R] cannot allocate a vector with 1920165909 length To: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch Date: Tuesday, July 28, 2009, 9:49 PM Dear Rusers, The error for the following was that it cannot allocate the vector of length 1920165909. a <- expand.grid(se1=0:100/100, sp1=0:100/100, se2=0:100/100, sp2=0:100/100, DR=0:100/100) How to solve it?
