Help transforming a dist
I'm not at all sure what you mean with your matrix: is that supposed to be three columns? What about:
fakedata <- data.frame(X=runif(3), Y = runif(3))
rownames(fakedata) <- c("A", "B", "C")
dist(fakedata)
A B B 0.8617733 C 0.3813032 0.5124284
data.frame(t(combn(rownames(fakedata), 2)), dist=as.vector(dist(fakedata)))
X1 X2 dist 1 A B 0.8617733 2 A C 0.3813032 3 B C 0.5124284 Sarah

I'd like to convert a dist into a table/matrix/thingy of the form: A B value A C value B C value (assuming the dist was over 3 names). Is there a way to do this without using a for loop? -- Taral <taralx at gmail.com> "Please let me know if there's any further trouble I can give you." ? ? -- Unknown
