This will create a list of the matrix subsets:
# create a matrix
x <- cbind(1:40, runif(40))
index <- c(10,15,33,40) # cut points
# create a matrix with start and end points
slices <- cbind(start=head(c(1,index + 1), -1), end=index)
# create a list with the matrices
matrix.subset <- lapply(seq(nrow(slices)), function(.row){
x[slices[.row, 1]:slices[.row, 2], ]
})
matrix.subset
