Stacking of vectors to form a column vector
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". Jim On Thu, Apr 30, 2015 at 1:20 PM, Jeff Newmiller

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

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]]
