R help - Sep 2009 - Is there a R function that can do similar things like 'pdist' in Matlab?

Hi,

I want to compute the pairwise correlation for about 10,000 genes. In
Matlab there is a function called 'pdsit' that can do this very
efficiently. I am wondering is there a similar function in R?

Thanks,

RT Ye.

That's not correlation. It's distance instead.

See ?dist
