Dear all,
I am trying to run a loop in my codes, but the software returns an error: "subscript out of bounds" I dont understand exactly why this is happenning. My codes are the following: rm(list=ls()) #remove almost everything in the memory set.seed(180185) nsim <- 10 mresultx <- matrix(-99, nrow=1000, ncol=nsim) mresultb <- matrix(-99, nrow=1000, ncol=nsim) N <- 200 I <- 5 taus <- c(0.480:0.520) h <- c(1:20/1000) codd <- c(1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21,23,25,27,29,31,33,35,37,39,41,43,45,47,49,51,53,55,57,59,61,63,65,67,69,71,73,75,77,79,81) ceven <- c(2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44,46,48,50,52,54,56,58,60,62,64,66,68,70,72,74,76,78,80,82) cevenl <- c(2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40) #Create an object to hold results. M <- matrix(0, ncol=82, nrow=nsim) Mhb0 <- matrix(0, ncol=20, nrow=nsim) Mhb1 <- matrix(0, ncol=20, nrow=nsim) Mchb0 <- matrix(0, ncol=20, nrow=nsim) Mchb1 <- matrix(0, ncol=20, nrow=nsim) for (i in 1:nsim){ # make a matrix with 5 cols of N random uniform values u <- replicate( 5, runif(N, 0, 1) ) # fit matrix u in another matrix of 1 column mu <- matrix(u, nrow=1000, ncol=1) # make auction-specific covariate x <- runif(N, 0, 1) mx <- matrix(rep(x,5), nrow=1000, ncol=1) b0 <- matrix(rep(c(1),1000), nrow=1000, ncol=1) #function for private cost cost <- b0+b0*mx+mu #bidding strategy bid <- mx+((I+1)/I)+((I-1)/I)*mu mresultb[,i] <- bid mresultx[,i] <- mx qf <- rq(formula = mresultb[,i] ~ mresultx[,i], tau= 480:520/1000) # Storing result and does not overwrite prior values M[i, ] <- coef(qf) QI <- (1-0.5)/(I-1) M50b0 <- M[,41] M50b1 <- M[,42] Mb0 <- matrix(M[,codd], nrow=nsim, ncol=20) Mb1 <- matrix(M[,ceven], nrow=nsim, ncol=20) for (t in cevenl){ Mhb0[ ,t] <- M[,(41+t)]-M[,(41-t)] Mhb1[ ,t] <- M[,(42+t)]-M[,(42-t)] } } Problem: the problem is in the red part of the loop. I want that the software takes the column (41+t) from the matrix called M and subtract from it the cloumn (41-t) of the same matrix M, such that the value of t varies according to the vector cevenl above. Why is this looping not working? Thanks in advance!!!
