[R] Nested for loop help please.

Hello,

You are using the function ?t(), matrix transpose, with more than one 
argument. What is that supposed to do? The error message says that the 
other two arguments are not used (because they are illegal). And you 
don't need to transpose a vector to sum its components.

Hope this helps,
