Did you check what you'd done above, or is what you posted not copied and pasted directly from your R session (and therefore contains typos)? * data.frame(n) - doesn't make sense; you have data frame with one row/column containing the number 20 * What is length? * If you want i=1,2,.......,n, why do you use "i in 2: length"? * What is random() [the function you are trying to use]? * What are the error messages - although one can have a good guess if you actually tried to run that code. You are asked by the posting guide to supply. Does this help: ran <- matrix(ncol = 20, nrow = 500) for (i in 1:20) { ran[, i] <- rnorm(500, sd = i) } ran <- as.data.frame(ran) G > > Can anyone give me any suggestion? > Thanks and regards > Arun > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html -- %~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~% * Note new Address, Telephone & Fax numbers from 6th April 2006 * %~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~%~% Gavin Simpson ECRC & ENSIS [t] +44 (0)20 7679 0522 UCL Department of Geography [f] +44 (0)20 7679 0565 Pearson Building [e] gavin.simpsonATNOSPAMucl.ac.uk Gower Street [w] http://www.ucl.ac.uk/~ucfagls/cv/ London, UK.
