[R] Fwd: will vectorization help in this case?

Hi all,

The previous post had some html formatting and did not go through. So,
here it is again in plain text.

I am doing a array marginalization over one dimension in the following manner:
===========================================================
for(l in 1:L)
{
   flst=list(Pzu, Pzi, array(Puzu[,as.character(r[[l,"u"]])],
dim=dim(Puzu)[1], dimnames=dimnames(Puzu)[1]),
array(Pizi[,as.character(r[[l, "i"]])], dim=dim(Pizi)[1],
dimnames=dimnames(Pizi)[1]) );
    tempa = 1;
    for(j in 1:length(flst)) tempa = tempa %X% flst[[j]];

    tempPzu = apply(tempa, 1, sum);
    tPzu = tPzu + tempPzu;
    tPuzu[,as.character(r[[l,"u"]])] = tPuzu[,as.character
(r[[l,"u"]])] + tempPzu;

    tempPzi = apply(tempa, 2, sum);
    tPzi = tPzi + tempPzi;
    tPizi[,as.character(r[[l,"i"]])] =
tPizi[,as.character(r[[l,"i"]])] + tempPzi;

    for(j in 1:ncomp) tPrjzuzilst[[j]][,,r[[l,rbase+j]]] =
tPrjzuzilst[[j]][,,r[[l,rbase+j]]] + tempa;
}
===========================================================
My question involves the operation using  tempPzu and tempPzi. Is my
use of loop in this case to addup certain arrays together, too ..
dumb? Is there another way of doing such things by vectorization?

Thanks in advance,
Nachi
