Hi,
Try:
example1<- 
as.matrix(read.table("example1.txt",header=TRUE,stringsAsFactors=FALSE,sep="\t",row.names=1,check.names=FALSE))
example2 <- example1 
example1New <- cbind(example1, `MAX without 
Restriction`=apply(example1[,1:4],1,max,na.rm=TRUE))
#or
library(matrixStats)
`MAX without Restriction`<- rowMaxs(example2[ 
,colnames(example2)[!grepl("Restriction", colnames(example2))]],na.rm=TRUE)
 example2New <- cbind(example2, `MAX without Restriction`)
 identical(example1New,example2New)
#[1] TRUE


A.K.


Hello 

I've got a matrix of the following form

-4.82E-20       -3.29E-05       NA      NA      NA 

(see also file) 


Now I'd like to calculate the maximal value of each row, but
 exclude Restriction 1-5. An add a new column to the given matrix with 
the name 'MAX without Restriction' and the max of each row. 

I tried 

max<-apply(example1,1,function(x)max(x)) 
new<-cbind(example,max) 


but it gave a strange output, also I couldn't manage to exclude the columns 
Restriction 1-5. 

Thank you for your help!!
