[R] Replicating Rows

[mwittmann at bren.ucsb.edu]

Hi, 

 I have a data matrix in which there are 1000 rows by 30 columns. The first
column of each row is a numeric indicating the number of trips taken to a
particular location with location attributes in the following column entries for
that row. 

I want to repeat each row based on the number of trips taken (as indicated by
the number in the first column)...i.e., if 1,1 indicates 4 trips, I want to
replicate row 1 four times, and do this for each entry of column 1. 

I have played with rep command with little luck. Can anyone help? This is
probably very simple. 

Thank you,

mw
