nested "for" loops

If in fact this is homework, you will do yourself, your classmates, and 
possibly your teacher if you let them know that, at least in R, almost 
anything you can do in a for() loop can be done easier and faster with 
vectorization.  If you teacher can't comprehend this, get him fired.

a<-c(4,6,3)
b<- c( 9,4,1)
d <- c(4,7,2,8)

winning.value <- max(outer(a,outer(b,d,"*"),"*"))

Why do you need to do it with nested for loops? It is of course possible 
- and I hinted how to do it in my first email - but there's no reason as 
far as I can see to do so, particularly as a means of MLE. Sounds 
suspiciously like homework...
