[R] creating an index vector within a 'for' loop

[Adaikalavan Ramasamy]

I am assuming your outputs are not scalar. You might want to use list()
function. Try :

xy.list <- list(NULL)   # initialise an list with null attributes

 for (i in 1:10) {
   xy.list[[i]] <- X%*%Y   }

Note the double square bracket. So xy.list[[8]] should extract the X%*%Y
values for the 8th person.
Hope this helps.

I basically want to create a vector at the end of a 'for' loop that will
store the output for each person and which I can recall after the loop has
run. This will require some sort of indexing.
