Hi Everyone,
The following rather extreme claim on memory causes a
segmentation fault on my installation:
fred <- matrix(1:1200, 20, 60)
littleOP <- function(x, y)
{
z <- as.vector(x) %*% t(as.vector(y))
dim(z) <- c(dim(x), dim(y))
z
}
littleOP(fred, fred) # this is OK
littleOP(littleOP(fred, fred), fred) # whoops! Segmentation fault
What's a bit strange is that if I do the outer product the
`old-fashioned' way then I get the more usual error message:
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 2555696 Kb
Cheers, Jonathan.
