统计分析：使用 R/R/矩阵的介绍
< 统计分析：使用 R 的介绍 | R
许多统计理论使用矩阵代数。虽然本书不需要详细了解矩阵，但了解 R 如何处理矩阵非常有用。
本质上，矩阵（复数：矩阵）是向量的二维等价物。换句话说，它是一个数字的矩形网格，按行和列排列。在 R 中，可以使用matrix()函数创建矩阵对象，该函数将一个数字向量（用于填充矩阵）作为第一个参数，并将行数和列数分别作为第二个和第三个参数。
R 也可以使用数组对象，它们类似于矩阵，但可以有超过 2 个维度。这些对于表格特别有用：一种包含根据各种标准分类的数据计数的数组。这些“列联表”的示例如下所示的HairEyeColor和Titanic表。
[]可用于访问矩阵或数组中的单个元素或元素集。这是通过用逗号分隔括号内的数字来完成的。例如，对于矩阵，需要指定行索引，然后是一个逗号，然后是列索引。如果行索引为空，则假定需要所有行，列索引也是如此。
输入m <- matrix(1:12, 3, 4) #Create a 3x4 matrix filled with numbers 1 to 12
m #Display it!
m*2 #Arithmetic, just like with vectors
m[2,3] #Pick out a single element (2nd row, 3rd column)
m[1:2, 2:4] #Or a range (rows 1 and 2, columns 2, 3, and 4.)
m[,1] #If the row index is missing, assume all rows
m[1,] #Same for columns
m[,2] <- 99 #You can assign values to one or more elements
m #See!
###Some real data, stored as "arrays"
HairEyeColor #A 3D array
HairEyeColor[,,1] #Select only the males to make it a 2D matrix
Titanic #A 4D array
Titanic[1:3,"Male","Adult",] #A matrix of only the adult male passengers
结果> m <- matrix(1:12, 3, 4) #Create a 3x4 matrix filled with numbers 1 to 12
> m #Display it!
