[R] Caculate first difference from a dataframe; write a simulation

Dear R Users

I'm writing my first simulation in R.
I've put across my problems with a smaller example in the attachment along
with the questions.

Please help.

Best regards
Meenu

Level  5.04
spread 0.25

##Question3: I want to write a simulation of the order given below: HOw can I in
R store each
simulation result in deltay[s,t] where s keeps track of scenarios and t keeps
track of time within a scenario
Do I need to declare 
See below in 'program-language'.

For (s in 1:10000){
	yield[s,1]=z.t 
	#How can I write yield[s,]<-z.t ?
	For (t in 1:60){
		deltay[s,t] = sample(x[,1:2],1,replace=T)
		yield[s,t+1]=y[s,t]+ deltay[s,t]
	}
	write scenario s
# how can I write scenario s into a dataframe that can be stored for future
calculations

[R] Caculate first difference from a dataframe; write a simulation

Q1 - mydat4[, 1:2] is not a matrix! It is a data.frame.
> class(mydat4[, 1:2])
[1] "data.frame"> is.matrix(mydat4[, 1:2])[1] FALSE

?diff is explicit about 'x' needing to be a numeric vector or a matrix.

Cast mydat4[, 1:2] as a matrix and it will work:
> diff(as.matrix(mydat4[,1:2]),1)   Level spread
3   0.27   2.27
6   0.15   0.01
8   0.58  -2.15
9   0.48   1.43
81 -0.48  -1.43
91  0.48   1.43
2   0.17   0.26
10  0.95  -2.38
1  -0.83   1.94
11  0.32  -1.36

See Simpson reply to Q1

##Question2: How can I easily identify which out of the 9 states does  
ad fall into with Level =5.04 and spread=0.25?
##OUTPUT
ad
          X6
Level  5.04
spread 0.25
state  state8

But spread for state7 was -0.34?????

Had it been 0.24, then this should work (some of the time.)
 > subset(mydat4, Level == 5.4 & spread==0.25)
[1] Level  spread change State
<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)

Perhaps you meant to specify an "or" condition?

 > subset(mydat4, Level == 5.4 | spread==0.24)
    Level spread change  State
10  5.40  -0.34    BrF State7
11  4.89   0.24    BlF State8
