[Rcpp-devel] how to reference a row of a matrix in C++ in Rcpp

[akshay kulkarni]

dear serguei,

                         I have another question:

If M is a matrix, M.nrow() should return the number of rows...but I encountered the following inconsistency:


> M
     x  y  z
[1,] 1  0  0
[2,] 4  3  0
[3,] 3  1  1
[4,] 2 90 87
[5,] 9 76 23
[6,] 5 23 13
> cppFunction('IntegerVector tccp5(IntegerMatrix M) { int x = M.nrow(); return x;}')
> tccp5(M)
[1] 0 0 0 0 0 0

can you please explain what is happening( I am very new to Rcpp and C++)?

very many thanks for your time and effort...
yours sincerely,
AKSHAY M KULKARNI

SO is too big to check this assertion by ourself. Do you have a link?

Try

cppFunction('IntegerVector tccp3(IntegerMatrix M) { IntegerVector x = M(2,_); return x;}')

Best,
Serguei.
