Note that in R terminology, 'myArray' is a list, not an array. You are right
to store things like lm() output in a list. If you want to store multiple lm
outputs in a way that is conceptually multi-dimensional, I would suggest
using lists of lists. Then you can use rapply(lm.fits, some.function,
how=replace) to process the model fits while keeping the multi-dimensional
structure.
