Hi,
I think there's some rounding issue with returning the max column.
(running 2.9.0 on an Apple, but my buddy found it on his PC)
> x <- matrix(c(1234.568,1234.569,1234.567),1)
> max.col(x)
[1] 2
> x <- matrix(c(12345.568,12345.569,12345.567),1)
> max.col(x)
[1] 3
> x <- matrix(c(112345.568,112345.569,112345.567),1)
> max.col(x)
[1] 3
> max.col(-x)
[1] 1
Thanks, Daryl
