Hi Daniel,

Turns out, your code, however simple, is quite elegant for my needs 
(sometimes I overanalyze  :O).  Here is my last code to do what I need to 
do:

####### begin R code ########
# generate a matrix of ten thousand rows of 1-8 
z <- t(matrix(rep(1:8,10000),8,10000))
library(Matrix)
# use the R sample function in a loop to sample each line with replacement
zcomb=Matrix()
for (i in 1:dim(z)[1]) {
    z1 <- t(matrix(sample(z,8,replace=TRUE)))
    zcomb = rbind(zcomb,z1)
    }
zcomb
####### end R code #########

Regards,
Jesse A. Canchola

Isn't what you want just sampling with replacement?

  x <- c(1,2,3)
  sample(x,3,replace=TRUE)

Hope this is helpful,

Dan
