[R] Error:'subscript out of bounds'

Include the levels argument in your calls to factor so the tables
all have the same dimensions.

> table(factor((1:4)>2), factor( (1:4)>0 ))

        TRUE
  FALSE    2
  TRUE     2
> table(factor((1:4)>2, levels=c(FALSE,TRUE)), factor( (1:4)>0,
levels=c(FALSE,TRUE) ))

        FALSE TRUE
  FALSE     0    2
  TRUE      0    2

Trying to extract row 2, column 2 from the former will give a subscript-out-
of-bounds error.
