Hi Wolfgang, thanks for your hint. But I am desperating. I have an 3 dim array of say 10 matrices where every matrix has to stick an other label. I found no way to direct assign the labels.
for example tab <- array(1:8, c(2, 2, 2)) dimnames(tab[,,1]) <- list(c("No","Yes"), c("No","Yes")) dimnames(tab[,,2]) <- list(c("big","small"), c("small","big")) should look like this , , 1 No Yes No 1 3 Yes 2 4 , , 2 big small small 5 7 big 6 8 Wolfgang Raffelsberger wrote: > > try this : > x <- > array(1:24,dim=c(2,3,4),dimnames=list(letters[1:2],LETTERS[1:3],letters[23:26])) > > Cheers, > Wolfgang > > downunder03 a écrit : >> hi all. how can i adress a array directly. for example i wanna give array >> 1 >> other labels than array 2.
