How can I create a correlation matrix in R?

Question

I have 92 set of data of same type.

I want to make a correlation matrix for any two combination possible.

i.e. I want a matrix of 92 x92.

such that e

The cor function will use the columns of the matrix in the calculation of correlation. So, the number of rows must be the same between your matrix x and matrix y. Ex.:

set.seed(1)
x <- matrix(rnorm(20), nrow=5, ncol=4)
y <- matrix(rnorm(15), nrow=5, ncol=3)
COR <- cor(x,y)
COR
image(x=seq(dim(x)[2]), y=seq(dim(y)[2]), z=COR, xlab="x column", ylab="y column")
text(expand.grid(x=seq(dim(x)[2]), y=seq(dim(y)[2])), labels=round(c(COR),2))

Edit:

Here is an example of custom row and column labels on a correlation matrix calculated with a single matrix:

png("corplot.png", width=5, height=5, units="in", res=200)
op <- par(mar=c(6,6,1,1), ps=10)
COR <- cor(iris[,1:4])
image(x=seq(nrow(COR)), y=seq(ncol(COR)), z=cor(iris[,1:4]), axes=F, xlab="", ylab="")
text(expand.grid(x=seq(dim(COR)[1]), y=seq(dim(COR)[2])), labels=round(c(COR),2))
box()
axis(1, at=seq(nrow(COR)), labels = rownames(COR), las=2)
axis(2, at=seq(ncol(COR)), labels = colnames(COR), las=1)
par(op)
