Dear list,

I am a little confused as to when to use apply, sapply, tapply, vapply,
replicate.  I've encountered this several times,
This is time, this is what I am working on,

 mat <- matrix(c(seq(from=1, to=10), rnorm(10)), ncol=2)

 a=1; b=5

newfun <- function(x, y, a, b)

{

 x*y+a+b

}

 sapply(i=1:10, newfun(x=mat[i, 1], y=mat[i, 2], a=a, b=b))

Error in match.fun(FUN) : argument "FUN" is missing, with no default

I want to use ith row of mat, evaluate newfun().  Am I making a parameter
mistake, or should I use a different apply function?


Thanks in a advance,

Mike
