Hello Nikhil, hope you are well today. I am sorry to be a pain but I have one follow up question, I am trying to express my results in a grid, which would look like a 6 by 6 matrix and would have just Yes or NO in each grid.. So what I am thinking is a way to store every result I get on " apply(b,2,coint) " in an array or vector, and express them is this matrix. So that I can just look at it and see whether assets swap2 and vol are cointegrated..
Do you reckon you point me in the right direction as to how to do that? Thank you!

One way to overcome it is to plot them to a pdf and name them appropriately for each iteration. Nikhil Kaza Asst.
