[R] Using loop for applying function on matrix

[arun]

You could also use:

  sapply(seq_len(ncol(mdat)),function(i) mdat[,i]*100/x[i])
#          [,1]     [,2] [,3]     [,4]     [,5]
#[1,]  7.142857 13.33333   30 36.36364 27.77778
#[2,] 78.571429 80.00000  130 90.90909 55.55556
#[3,] 14.285714 20.00000   40 45.45455 33.33333
#[4,] 71.428571 60.00000   80 81.81818 55.55556
#[5,] 35.714286 40.00000   70 72.72727 22.22222

Thanks for your reply Pascal.
  I am presently using it with sweep. But here in the question I just gave
one simple example. In reality I need several functions to run. Thus I
was wondering, if without sweep, I can use loop. Also want to learn how to
do this using loop.
Any help will be really great,
Thanks,
Mitra
