If poproh.3 was your dataset as a data.frame (an object with row and
column dimensions), you need a comma following the row selection
(sample(...)) to indicate that you want to select those rows and all
columns:
newsample <-poprho.3[sample(1:10000,100),] # note the last comma in the
brackets
General use is:
my.data.frame[rows,columns]
Where either rows or columns (or both) can be left blank to indicate
that you want all of them. Similarly, a selection of the first column
would have been (comma followed by column number):
newsample <-poprho.3[sample(1:10000,100),1]
That's why your:
newsample <-as.matrix(nameofdataset[sample(1:10000,100),])
worked; the as.matrix wasn't necessary to simply sample the data.
Cheers,
Jeff.
