Dear R experts, Might be very simple question to ask but would be insightful. As the same story of nested "for loops". following is the code that I am using to get the autocorrelation function of the sample data. I have tried to get rid of for loops but since I am touching R after such a long time that I need to practice more but I need help to revive my skills. I know that apply() or sapply() would be beneficial. I need help... Best Wishes, Baloo R code ---------- acf_wal <- function (infile) { data<-read.table(infile) data_value <- data[,-1] data_value_mean <- mean(data_value) data_value_square <- (data_value - data_value_mean) ^ 2 square_sum<-sum(data_value_square) entry<-NROW(data_value) deno<-square_sum/entry tab1<-c() tab2<-c() ps_value <- seq(0,(floor(entry/2)),1) for(k in 0:(floor(entry/2))){ for (i in 1:(entry-k)) { mult<-(data_value[i] - data_value_mean) * (data_value [i+k] - data_value_mean) tab1 <- c(tab1,mult) } auto_avg<-mean(tab1) tab1<-c() auto_corr<-auto_avg/deno tab2<-c(tab2,auto_corr) } table_value <- cbind (ps_value, tab2) colnames(table_value) <- c("#ps", "acf") outfile<-unlist(strsplit(infile, split=".", fixed=TRUE))[1] write.table(table_value,file=paste(outfile,"acf.dat",sep="-"),row.names=FALSE,sep="\t",quote=F) } -------------- Sample data ------------------ 1 16.0071 2 16.7966 3 17.575 4 18.1614 5 15.982 6 16.8515 7 15.6828 8 14.9652 9 14.8623 10 14.7079 -------------------- Help in this regard would be highly appreciated.

In the ACF(nlme) the normalization of the numerator has been done by N and I want to normalize it by N-k, where N is the observations and k is the lag.
