[R] like apply(x,1,sum), but using multiplication?
Hi, I need to multiply all columns in a matrix so something like apply(x,2,sum), but using multiplication should do. I have tried apply(x,2,*) I know this must be trivial, but I get: Error in FUN(newX[, i], ...) : invalid unary operator The help for apply states that unary operators must be quoted. I tried single quotes too, with the same results.
