B <- X[2:3] you are indexing out of bounds because you are trying to assign a number that is in the second row in the third column of matrix X

B <- X[2:2] would work for example, B becomes the second number in the second row of X. hope this helps! best, jens > -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- > Von: gov2001-l-bounces(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > [mailto:gov2001-l-bounces@lists.fas.harvard.edu] > Gesendet: Thursday, September 30, 2004 3:53 PM > An: gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > Betreff: Re: [gov2001-l] Fw: problem set > > > > Does anyone know what the "subscript out of bounds" error usually means? > > Ellie > > > On Thu, 30 Sep 2004, Paul Bodnar wrote: > > > That's R-speak for "mayday, mayday" > > > > On Thu, 30 Sep 2004, Olivia Lau wrote: > > > > > control c, control c. > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: "Jonathan Harris" &lt;jaharris(a)fas.harvard.edu&gt; > > > To: &lt;gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu&gt; > > > Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 1:16 AM > > > Subject: Re: [gov2001-l] Fw: problem set > > > > > > > > > > What's the command in R to kill a command/force quit a > > > > calculation? > > > > > > > > On Sep 30, 2004, at 1:14 AM, Olivia Lau wrote: > > > > > > > >> I don't think that quote is in context. > > > >> > > > >> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kentaro Fukumoto" > > > >> &lt;fukumoto(a)dg8.so-net.ne.jp&gt; > > > >> To: &lt;gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu&gt; > > > >> Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 1:11 AM > > > >> Subject: Re: [gov2001-l] Fw: problem set > > > >> > > > >> > > > >>> Good evening, Wei and all, > > > >>> > > > >>>> In part d), do we need to answere under the condition of n > > > >>>> increase or just > > > >>>> assume n equal 50? > > > >>> > > > >>> I heard from her that we get less than 50 observations. > > > >>> Hope it helps. > > > >>> > > > >>> Kentaro > > > >>> > > > >>> _______________________________________________ > > > >>> gov2001-l mailing list > > > >>> gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > > > >>> http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l > > > >> > > > >> _______________________________________________ > > > >> gov2001-l mailing list > > > >> gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > > > >> http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > > gov2001-l mailing list > > > > gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > > > > http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l > > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > gov2001-l mailing list > > > gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > > > http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > gov2001-l mailing list > > gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > > http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l > > > _______________________________________________ > gov2001-l mailing list > gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu > http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l >
