3) Matrices and Lists
📖 Lecture
We continue describing more data objects in R such as
- atomic objects: matrices (and N-dim arrays)
- non-atomic objects: lists
🎯 Objectives
At the end of this week you will be able to:
- Create matrices with the function
matrix()
- Explain how R internally stores matrices
- Describe why matrices are atomic objects
- Describe in what sense a list is considered to be a non-atomic vector
