I am struggling with R code optimization, a recurrent topic on this list. I have three arrays, say A, B and C, all having the same number of columns. I need to compute an array D whose generic element is D[i, j, k] <- sum_n A[i, n]*B[j, n]*C[k, n] Cycling over the three indices and subsetting the columns won't do. Is there any way to implement this efficiently in R or should I resign to

I have two questions for the group. One is very concrete, and is dangerously close to a "please do my homework" posting. The second follows from the first one but is more general. I would welcome the advice of experienced R users. As for the first one: I have a data frame with two variables X Y A, chris D, chris B, chris B, chris C, andrew E, andrew C, andrew B, beth
