Putting Loop output in Matrix

[Swinhippen]

Hello, I have the following problem.

I have a large matrix called cleantable7. Now I am running the following for loop:

#Loop with phonetic
for (row in 1:nrow(cleantable7))
{
codephon = phonetic(cleantable7[row,], method = c("soundex"), useBytes = FALSE)
codephon2 = codephon[!duplicated(codephon)]
print(codephon2)
}

Now I want all of the output generated from print(codephon2) to be filled in a matrix.
Any ideas?

I would define a list output <- list() and inside the loop output[[row]] <- codephon2 and then after the loop out_matrix <- do.call(rbind, output)

Thank you, but this output matrix has not the same dimension as the one from cleantable. Now there is no structure with rows and columns anymore as it was in cleantable7. Any idea how I will get same dimension?

Hi!

To help us help you, could you please prepare a reproducible example (reprex) illustrating your issue? Please have a look at this guide, to see how to create one:

FAQ: How to do a minimal reproducible example ( reprex ) for beginners

A minimal reproducible example consists of the following items: A minimal dataset, necessary to reproduce the issue The minimal runnable code necessary to reproduce the issue, which can be run on the given dataset, and including the necessary information on the used packages. Let's quickly go over each one of these with examples: Minimal Dataset (Sample Data) You need to provide a data frame that is small enough to be (reasonably) pasted on a post, but big enough to reproduce your issue. Let's say, as an example, that you are working with the iris data frame head(iris) #> Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species #> 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.…
