If you end up using it like so: vcat([[zeros(Int, k) for n = 1:binomial(J, k)] for k = 1:K]...) then have a look at https://github.com/mbauman/RaggedArrays.jl > On 21 Sep 2015 10:20, "Michael Hatherly" <michaelhathe...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> The indices need to all be independent since otherwise you’d end up >> producing an array with some rows/columns being of different length, which >> isn’t supported by Julia’s Array{T, N}.
