data manipulation between vector and matrix

Hi Arun,
Sorry, I might be a little unclear with my words.

The dimensions are different. This is what I got:
> x-t(mat)
?? ? [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12] [,13] [,14]
[1,]? ? 0 ? -1 ? -2 ? -3 ? -4 ? -5 ? -6 ? -7 ? -8? ? -9 ? -10 ? -11 ? -12 ? -13
[2,]? -19? -20? -21? -22? -23? -24? -25? -26? -27 ? -28 ? -29 ? -30 ? -31 ? -32
?? ? [,15] [,16] [,17] [,18] [,19] [,20]
[1,] ? -14 ? -15 ? -16 ? -17 ? -18 ? -19
[2,] ? -33 ? -34 ? -35 ? -36 ? -37 ? -38
> sweep(-mat, 2, x, "+")
? ? ? [,1] [,2]
?[1,]? ? 0? -19
?[2,] ? -1? -20
?[3,] ? -2? -21
?[4,] ? -3? -22
?[5,] ? -4? -23
?[6,] ? -5? -24
?[7,] ? -6? -25
?[8,] ? -7? -26
?[9,] ? -8? -27
[10,] ? -9? -28
[11,]? -10? -29
[12,]? -11? -30
[13,]? -12? -31
[14,]? -13? -32
[15,]? -14? -33
[16,]? -15? -34
[17,]? -16? -35
[18,]? -17? -36
[19,]? -18? -37
[20,]? -19? -38
> dim(x-t(mat))
[1]? 2 20
> dim(sweep(-mat, 2, x, "+"))
[1] 20? 2

HI Mike,
>I didn't understand "except the x-t(mat) output is very different than the others".? Are you saying that it needs to be transposed?? BTW, that was z5.
