Is something like this what your looking for:

x   <- matrix(c(rnorm(100)),ncol=10)
sub <- sample(5, replace=TRUE) # For sampling with replacement
x[sub,]

Subject: [R] generating RANDOM ROWS from matrix

Dear group,

I would like to generate a 1000 random rows from a MATRIX with
dimensions 12,000 by 20 (i.e. to generate a 1000 by 20 matrix of random
rows)

Does the function sample() work for this???

thank you in advance
