Hi Debanjan,
It would be more likely that you get a response if your question was more clear.
Your code is very difficult to read, and it doesn't help that you
don't provide any context, or comment your code with "### This is
calculating the average" kind of statements.
What are you trying to do?
Anyhow, after quite a bit of effort trying to understand what you've
done, I found your (simple!)
mistake:
Since you are resetting the "k" counter after your first try, you need
to change your "k" constant in that big quantity you're calculating to
(k-N[j-1]), like this:
T[k] <-
(((k-N[j-1])/2)*log(theta1/theta2))+(((theta2-theta1)/(2*theta1*theta2))*smm[k])-((k-N[j-1])*(theta2-theta1)/2)
As an aside, try not to use variables defined outside a function in
the function code (in this case your "x"). It makes the code more
difficult to follow, and far more likely to break.
Regards,
Gustaf
