#I am trying to write code that will create a matrix with a variable number of
columns where the #number of columns is 1+Grps
#I can do this:
NSims <- 4
Grps <- 5
DiffMeans <- matrix(nrow=NSims,ncol=1+Grps)
DiffMeans
#I have a problem when I try to name the columns of the matrix. I want the
first column to be NSims, #and the other columns to be something like Value1,
Value2, . . . Valuen where N=Grps
# I wrote a function to build a list of length Grps
createValuelist <- function(num_elements) {
for (i in 1:num_elements) {
cat("Item", i, "\n", sep = "")
}
}
createValuelist(Grps)
# When I try to assign column names I receive an error:
#Error in dimnames(DiffMeans) <- list(NULL, c("NSim", createValuelist(Grps))) :
# length of 'dimnames' [2] not equal to array extent
dimnames(DiffMeans) <- list(NULL,c("NSim",createValuelist(Grps)))
DiffMeans
# Thank you for your help!

maybe:
NSims <- 4
Grps <- 5
DiffMeans <-
matrix(nrow=NSims,ncol=1+Grps,
dimnames=list(NULL, c('Nsimn', paste('Item', 1:Grps, sep=''))))
DiffMeans
best,
