[R] for loop query

[Gerard M. Keogh]

Hi all,

apologies if this is obvious - but I can't see it and would appreciate some
quick help!

the matrix mhouse is 26x3 and I'm computing odds ratios. The simple code
below "should" compute the odds vector for every pair (325) i.e. 26C2 in
cols 1 and 2.
On the first i=1 outer loop the inner j loop runs from 2 to 26 ok and then
I get the error (Error: subscript out of bounds)

Why isn't my loop incrementing i - the outer loop to 2 and then resetting
j=3?
Am I missing something obvious?

thanks

Gerard
