Hello, Sorry, but I don't understand your formula. Maybe it's better if you 1. use * for multiply. 2. break the expression into smaller components. For instance, (Is it an add and a multiply or two multiplies?) EXP <- exp{ (B0 B1 row matrix) (z[l] column matrix) } Then use EXP. 3. instead of 'row matrix' write 'row_matrix', the same for column matrix. 4. Your final sum is the sum of what ???
