[R] matrix operation

[Tuszynski, Jaroslaw W.]

 There a re a few ways to do it without loop. Here is one:
 
 dat = matrix(runif(100), 50,2)
 dat[,1] = dat[,1] >= dat[,2]

Hello:

I have a matrix 'dat' with 2 columns.

I have the following code:

for (i in 1:nrows(dat))
{
  if (dat[i,1] < dat[i,2])
    {
      dat[i,2]<-0
    }

   else
   {
     dat[i,2]<-1
   }


Is there a way to accomplish this without the for loop?

Thank you.
