[R] Fwd: Simulate nested data

[Sarah Goslee]

Hi Andrea,

Without knowing what species is, I can't run your code as is, but try this:


groups<-3
speciesgroups <- as.integer(runif(groups,1,10))
# I'd use sample(1:10, groups, replace=TRUE)
p<-array(NA,dim=speciesgroups)


Mostly you're trying to use c() on something that's already a vector.
