Indexing Data then transforming into a matrix

[arahrooh]

I have a 16384 x 1 matrix of data.

I am trying to index every 256 rows and get a resulting matrix of dimension 256 x 64.

Below is my attempt to index the data.

###transforming data

for (i in 1:64);

data.i <- testset[(1:256)*i,]

I am a little bit confused on loops and how I would index the rows then combine then column by column.

Try it this way

testset <- seq(1:16384)
testset <- matrix(testset, nrow = 256, byrow = TRUE)
head(testset)
