Subject: [Rd] Looks like a bug in subsetting of a complicated object
Message-ID: <AANLkTikbbiHFZB9fxHCXfHrnJP_iEYSWX58gOXBEi9LK@mail.gmail.com>

I don't understand what is happening! I have a (large) object sim1, an
matrix list
with dim c(101,101) where each element is an 3*3 matrix. I am
subsetting that with
a matrix coo, of dim c(100,2), of unique indices, but the resulting object
has length 99, not 100 as expected.

Code reproducing the problem follows:


library(RandomFields)

set.seed(123)
sim0 <- GaussRF(x=seq(0, 100, by=1),
                y=seq(0, 100, by=1),
                grid=TRUE, model="spherical",
                param=c(0, 1, 0, 10), trend=NULL, n=9, gridtriple=FALSE)

simmatrices <- function(arr) # arr must be an array of rank 3
                        {
               d <- dim(arr)
               n1 <- d[1]; n2 <- d[2] # we suppose d[3]==9
               res <- vector(length=n1*n2, mode="list")
               dim(res) <- c(n1, n2)
               for (i in 1:n1) for (j in 1:n2) {
                 x1 <- arr[i, j, 1:3];x2 <- arr[i, j, 4:6]
                 x3 <- arr[i, j, 7:9]
                 res[[i, j]] <- x1%o%x1 + x2%o%x2 + x3%o%x3
               }
               res
             }

sim1 <- simmatrices(sim0)

set.seed(234)
x <- sample(seq(0, 100, by=1), 101, replace=TRUE)
y <- sample(seq(0, 100, by=1), 101, replace=TRUE)
coo <- cbind(x=x, y=y)
coo <- unique(coo)

sim1.obs <- sim1[coo]

dim(coo)
length(sim1.obs)
