Hi,
You can use all.equal, like this:
all.equal(c(1,1), mtrx[1,], check.attributes=FALSE)
If you want to check each row of the matrix (I wasn't clear if you
wanted this) you can do something like
check.equal <- function(x, y)
{
isTRUE(all.equal(y, x, check.attributes=FALSE))
}
apply(mtrx, 1, check.equal, y=c(1,1))
HTH,
