Stacking of vectors to form a column vector
Thank you. your suggestions all worked. Best Regards?

... and if this is what is wanted, somewhat cleaner and more generalizable for programming would be: do.call(c, mydata[,1:3]) ## where the column indices might have to be adjusted to get the desired columns.

Hi Olufemi, I sounds like you have a data frame (let's call it "mydata") with at least three elements (columns). You may be trying to use c() in this way: y1to3<-c(y1,y2,y3) in which case it won't work. However: y1to3<-c(mydata$y1,mydata$y2,mydata$y3) might do what you want, substituting whatever the name of your data frame is for "mydata".

I am sure you can use c() because columns may be vectors even though vectors are not columns, but you really need to follow the posting guide and provide a reproducible example for us to show you how. You might find [1] helpful, in particular as it describes the use of the dput function to give us a few rows of your data.

Thank you Jeff for your response. My y1, y2, y3 are actually 3 columns in the data so I cannot use the c() function to concatenate them. I am confusing the "columns" with vectors. I actually meant columns. Any help will be much appreciated Olufemi On Wednesday, 29 April 2015, 22:31, Jeff Newmiller <jdnewmil at dcn.davis.CA.us> wrote: Vectors are not "columns" or "rows".

Hello,I am estimating a system of nonlinear equation where I need to stack my vector of y. I have data of about 6000units. I tried using
the
rbind but instead of having a vector of 1 by 18000, it is giving me a
3
by 6000 so that my matrix multiplication is non-conformable. The stack command requires an identifier but in this case, I do not have a
unique
identifier. I would like to stack the the first 6000 units of y1 on the 2nd 6000 units of y2 and 6000 units of y3. Any help will be greatly appreciated. ThanksOlufemi ? ? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
