[R] Is it possible to make a matrix to start at row 0?

Eh??? Why would you want to do that?? (R isn't C).

So the simple answer is: you can't.

The other answer is, well of course you sort of can via, e.g.

for(i in 0:9)  {
   z <- myMatrix[i+1,]
  ...
}

But as Josh said, I think this falls into the class of "You are just
asking for trouble, so don't do it."

Cheers,
Bert
