Hello everybody, I have written a nested for-loop, but as length(uc) > 170,000, this would take VERY long. I have tried to use sapply or something but I cannot get it to work, I would be happy if someone could point out to write this more efficiently. Thank you all,
Ludwig ergsens <- data.frame(budget = numeric(500)) uc <- unique(rftab$startCell) for(i in 1:500){ uniquerates <- rlnorm(n = length(uc), mean = -1.6, sd = 1.7) for(j in 1:length(uc)){ rftab$masskg[rftab$startCell == uc[j]] <- uniquerates[j] } ergsens$budget[i] <- sum(rftab$masskg, na.rm = TRUE)/1000 } ----- Dipl.
