[R] comparison of these types is not implemented

[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Dear Tom,

r_squared is a list of vectors and not a vector. 

Use r_squared[[i]] instead of r_squared[i] or convert r_squared to a
vector with unlist(r_squared)

HTH,

Thierry

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.

Hi All,

Can you tell me why I get the error message below?  It's driving me
nuts.
