Dear all users

I want to write a vector with one column and just NA values and nrow=200
when i write X=numeric(NA) is not correct  how can i do this please?


Regards

x <- rep(NA, 200)

For all cases I can think of, that is enough. If you MUST have a matrix with one column and two hundred rows, set:

dim(x) <- c(200,1)

... and, less explicitly, but more compactly:
y <- array(dim=c(200,1))

Vectors have no columns or rows.

rep(  NA, 200 )

If you need a matrix, you have to turn it into one:

matrix( rep(  NA, 200 ), ncol=1 )
