indexing a parameter in nls
...1 and f2 (with no intercept). The p-parameter indicates the relative impact of the two factors on Y. If p=.5, f1 and f2 have equal impact, for p>.5, f1 has greater impact, for p<.5 f2 has greater impact. I can estimate the model as follows for f1="row", f2="col", Y="nkids": rd<-model.matrix(~as.factor(row)-1) cd<-model.matrix(~as.factor(col)-1) strt<-list(m1=2,m2=2,m3=2,m4=2,m5=3,p=.5) nls(nkids~p*(rd[,1]*m1+rd[,2]*m2+rd[,3]*m3+rd[,4]*m4+rd[,5]*m5) + (1-p)*(cd[,1]*m1+cd[,2]*m2+cd[,3]*m3+cd[,4]*m4+cd[,5]*m5), start=strt) --- What I want...

Vectorizing sample()
I am simulating sickness among a group of families. Part of the task is to randomly draw who in the family will be sick, randomly drawing from family ID's where Dad =1, Mom = 2, Kid1 = 3, Kid2 = 4., etc. My census of Dads is of the form shown below. Dad_ID Spouse (Y=1;N=0) #Kids #People_Becoming_Sick 1 1 0 1 2
