[R] splitting matrices

[arun]

Hi,
You could also try:
set.seed(51)
mat1<-matrix(sample(1:5000,1116*12,replace=TRUE),nrow=1116)
 dim(mat1)
#[1] 1116   12

res1<-lapply(split(as.data.frame(mat1),rep(1:36,each=31)),as.matrix)
 unlist(lapply(res1,nrow))
# 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 
#31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 
#27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 
#31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 31

This example illustrates a method that may do what you want.

## split a 20x5 matrix into five 4x5 matrices
xmat <- matrix(1:100, nrow=20, ncol=5, byrow=TRUE)
xsplit <- rep( 1:5, times= rep(4,5))
tmp <- split.data.frame(xmat,xsplit)

You will need to change xsplit to fit your dimensions.
