Here is the WinBUGS code

model {
for(i in 1:N) {m[i] <- 1/n[ind[i]] }
cumsum[1] <- 0
for(i in 2:(N+1)) {cumsum[i] <- sum(num[1:(i-1)]) }
for(k in 1:sumNumNeigh) {
 for(i in 1:N) {
# #pick[k,i] = 1 if cumsum[i] < k <= cumsum[i=1]; otherwise, pick[k,i] = 0
##step(e) 1 if e >= 0; 0 otherwise
   pick[k,i]<-step(k-cumsum[i]-epsilon)*step(cumsum[i+1]-k) }

 C[k]<-1/ inprod(num[], pick[k,]) }
epsilon <- 0.0001

I am hoping someone can help translate some WinBUGS code into R code. I would like to use R to create the C[] matrix required for a car.proper model in WinBUGS, but I am having a difficult time negotiating the coding. The C matrix provides normalized weights for each pair of spatial areas. So the WinBUGS example is as follows:

# of the weight matrix with elements Cij. The first J1 elements of the C[] vector contain the # weights for the J1 neighbours of area i=1; the (J1+1) to J2 elements of the C[] vector contain
# the weights for the J2 neighbours of area i=2; etc.
# To set up this vector, we need to define a variable cumsum, which gives the values of J1, # J2, etc.; we then set up an index matrix pick[,] with N columns corresponding to the # i=1,...,N areas, and with the same number of rows as there are elements in the C[] vector # (i.e. sumNumNeigh). The elements C[ (cumsum[i]+1):cumsum[i+1] ] correspond to # the set of weights Cij associated with area i, and so we set up ith column of the matrix pick[,] # to have a 1 in all the rows k for which cumsum[i] < k <= cumsum[i+1], and 0's elsewhere. # For example, let N=4 and cumsum=c(0,3,5,6,8), so area i=1 has 3 neighbours, area i=2 has 2 # neighbours, area i=3 has 1 neighbour and area i=4 has 2 neighbours. The the matrix pick[,] is:
# pick
# 1, 0, 0, 0,
# 1, 0, 0, 0,
# 1, 0, 0, 0,
# 0, 1, 0, 0,
# 0, 1, 0, 0,
# 0, 0, 1, 0,
# 0, 0, 0, 1,
# 0, 0, 0, 1,
#
# We can then use the inner product (inprod(,)) function in WinBUGS and the kth row of pick to # select which area corresponds to the kth element in the vector C[]; likewise, we can use inprod(,) # and the ith column of pick to select the elements of C[] which correspond to area i.

Basically I want to do this in R to speed things up a little. Has anyone written a function for this conversion?
