What do you intend r1 to contain? TRUE and FALSE (an indicator vector?) or say integers 1,2,3 designating your intervals around your 3 sample points? So you would e.g. set r1[k,1] to 3 if the kth grid point in [-1,1] lies in interval 3? Etc? Some more detail would help narrow down the possibilities.

Easy to set up. x <- seq(-1,1,.1) I then sample 3 numbers from x. y <- sample(x, 3) Suppose one of my values is -0.7. I want to set up an interval around that y1 <- pmax(y-0.1,-1) y2 <- pmin(y+0.1,1) For the value -.7, the interval will run from -.8 to -.6. There will be several intervals. Again, nothing interesting so far. However, now I want to set up something that I will call r1. Essentially, r1 "runs" between -1 and 1 as well. I want to place a value in r1 between -.8 and -.6 for my interval, and zeros elsewhere. I'm trying to use a data frame in which the first column represents the values from -1 to 1. The remaining columns are initially set to zero. Also, I'm trying to avoid loops. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
