Thanks for your reply. For each condition, I will have a matrix or data
frames of 1000 rows and 4 columns. I also have a total of 64 conditions for
now. So, in total, I will have 64 matrices or data frames of 1000 rows and 4
columns. The format of data I would like to store would be data frames or
matrices. I also would like to store the data for later use, e.g., a plot of
the empirical distribution of the chi^2, or to compute the power of Chi^2
across 1000 reps for each condition.
