This lesson explains how. In the context of matrices, if you specify dimensions that can’t be filled up by your matrix, R will recycle the vector so your matrix is complete. For example, if I passed the vector from 1 to 10 in the matrix function, and made it explicit that I want my matrix to contain 4 rows and 4 columns, R will recognise that my vector is too short for the matrix, and it will repeat it until all 16 value spots hold a value. As you see, in this particular case, R also issues a warning that 10 is not a multiple of the number of rows, but that isn’t usually consequential. The moral of the story here is: be aware that recycling will happen, if necessary, in some matrix operations. ► Consider hitting the SUBSCRIBE button if you LIKE the content: https://www.youtube.com/c/365DataScience?sub_confirmation=1 ► VISIT our website: https://bit.ly/365ds 🤝 Connect with us LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/365datascience/ 365 Data Science is an online educational career website that offers the incredible opportunity to find your way into the data science world no matter your previous knowledge and experience.
