How to 'apply' on multiple arguments?
Hi, I am wonder if there is a function similar 'apply' but it could accept multiple arguments? For example, I have the following matrix. x=matrix(1:6,nr=2) y=matrix(1:6,nr=2) I want to find a function that can be used to compute the linear regression for each pair of rows in the two matrices? multiple_apply(x,y,1,function(u,v){lm(u ~ v)} That is, I wound like something like the above

Why strsplit can be used with matrix but not data.frame?
Hi, As show in the code below, strsplit can be applied to a matrix but not a data.frame. I don't understand why R is designed in this way. Can somebody help me understand it? How to split all the strings in x$y? x=data.frame(x=1:10,y=rep("abc",10)) strsplit(x$y,'b') #Error in strsplit(x$y, "b") : non-character argument y=cbind(1:10,rep("abc",10))

Example scripts for R Manual
Hi, I am wondering if some experienced users would help put the ready-to-run code of the examples in the manuals. It would help new users learn R faster by putting all the examples in an ready-to-run R script file. Can somebody help do so sometime and post the code along with the pdf manuals? http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html Regards, Peng

Is there a function to test if all the elements in a vector are unique
length(unique(c(1,2,2)))==length(c(1,2,2)) I use the above test to test if all the elements in a vector are unique. But I'm wondering if there is a convenient function to do so in R library.

Is there a summary on different version of 'apply' functions? What is the meaning of the prefixes?
Hi, There are quiet a few different 'apply' functions, such as lapply, sapply and many more. I'm very familiar with the 'Apply' function in Mathematica. Can somebody point me a summary of all the 'apply' functions in R. Also, I'm curious that what 'l' and 's' (and other prefixes) stand for in 'lapply' and 'sapply' Regards, Peng

Is there an variant of apply() that does not return anything?
There are a few version of apply() (e.g., lapply(), sapply()). I'm wondering if there is one that does not return anything but just silently apply a function to the list argument. For example, the plot function is applied to each element in 'alist'. It is redundant to return anything from apply. apply(alist,function(x){ plot each element of alist})
