[R] How to change several elements of an array simultaneously?

[Peter Holzer]

I have a matrix `m' and two vectors `rs' and `cs'. I want to change m at the
positions (rs[1], cs[1]), (rs[2], cs[2]), ... to 1. Obviously I can do that by

> m[rs + (cs-1) * dim(m)[1]] <- 1

but I would just be interested whether I am missing a more "intuitive" way
of doing that.

Thanks in advance, Peter
