Hello!
I am trying to write a function with vector and data.frame parameters that uses the sum() function and values from the rows of the data.frame. I need to pass this function as a parameter to optim(). My starting point is: observs <- data.frame(y, x1, x2, x3) Fn <- function(par, observs) { sum( (y - (par[1] * (x1 + 1) * x2^(-par[2]) * x3^par[3])^2 ) } y, x1, x2, x3 are all vectors. I am a bit new to R and I have not been able to find a good description of how to iterate over rows in a data.frame. What is a straightforward way to do this? What am I missing?
