repeating matrices in a list
You are so close:
rep(list(g), 3)
[[1]]
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 0.00 2.0 4
[2,] 0.25 0.0 0
[3,] 0.00 0.6 0
[[2]]
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 0.00 2.0 4
[2,] 0.25 0.0 0
[3,] 0.00 0.6 0
[[3]]
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 0.00 2.0 4
[2,] 0.25 0.0 0
[3,] 0.00 0.6 0

Suppose I have the following square, non-negative matrices
g=matrix(c(0,2,4,0.25,0,0,0,0.6,0),3,3,byrow=T);
I want to create a list where this matrix is repeated multiple times. if I do this brute force (manually), using
env <- list(g,g,g)
works fine. Yields
[[1]]
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 0.00 2.0 4
[2,] 0.25 0.0 0
[3,] 0.00 0.6 0
[[2]]
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 0.00 2.0 4
[2,] 0.25 0.0 0
[3,] 0.00 0.6 0
[[3]]
[,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] 0.00 2.0 4
[2,] 0.25 0.0 0
[3,] 0.00 0.6 0
But - for a variety of purposes, I need to 'automate' building said list. I
tried using rep
env <- list(rep(g,each=3))
but this yields [1] 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.00 0.00 0.00 2.00 2.00 2.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 [16] 0.60 0.60 0.60 4.00 4.00 4.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 Any suggestions/pointers to the obvious? Thanks in advance...
