[R] Replacing values of a matrix with values from corresponding rows of another matrix

[David Carlson]

This should also work:

> mask <- randomized > 0
> mask
      [,1]  [,2]  [,3]  [,4]  [,5] [,6]
[1,] FALSE FALSE  TRUE FALSE FALSE TRUE
[2,]  TRUE  TRUE FALSE  TRUE  TRUE TRUE
[3,] FALSE  TRUE  TRUE FALSE FALSE TRUE
[4,]  TRUE  TRUE FALSE  TRUE FALSE TRUE
> randomized[mask] <- original[mask]
> randomized
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6]
[1,]    0    0    4    0    0    1
[2,]    2    2    0    1    0    2
[3,]    0    5    0    0    0    1
[4,]    3    1    0    5    0    4

Great! Thank you, Nello. It works on my larger matrices.
