binary order combinations
I am not sure it can do it. Besides, I ran a test of combos from quantreg:
library(quantreg)
H<-1:3
test.combos<-lapply(1:3,function(x)
{combn(H,x)
})
Every time I tried it crashed my R...
:(

Dear all!
I have a vector of names
names<-("V1", "V2", "V3",....., "V15")
I could create all possible combinations of these names (of all
lengths) using R:
combos<-lapply(1:15,function(x)
{combn(names,x)
})
I get a list with all possible combinations of elements of 'names'
that looks like this (just the very beginning of it):
[[1]] - the first element contains all combinations of 1 name
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13]
[,14]
[1,] "V1" "V2" "V3" "V4" "V5" "V6" "V7" "V8" "V9" "V10" "V11" "V12" "V13"
"V14"
[,15] [1,] "V15" [[2]] - the second element contains all possible combinations of 2 names [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [1,] "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" "V1" [2,] "V2" "V3" "V4" "V5" "V6" "V7" "V8" "V9" "V10" "V11" "V12" "V13" "V14" . . . etc. My question is: Is there any way to re-arrange all sub-elements of the above list (i.e., all possible combinations of names such as V1, V1:V3, V1:V2:V4:V5) in a binary system order. More specifically, according to this system: V1=1 V2=2 V3=4 V4=8 V5=16, etc.... So, I'd like those combinations to be arranged in a vector in the following order: 1. V1 (because V1=1) 2. V2 (because V2=2) 3. V1:V2 (because V1=1 and V2=2 so that 1+2=3) 4. V3 (because V3=4) 5. V1:V3 (because V1=1 and V3=4 so that 1+4=5) 6. V2:V3 (because V2=2 and V3=4 so that 2+4=6) 7. V1:V2:V3 (because V1=1 and V2=2 and V3=4 so that 1+2+4=7) 8. V4 (because V4=8) etc. Is it at all possible? Or maybe there is a way to create the name combinations in such an order in the first place? Thank you very much! Dimitri Liakhovitski
