Convert a matrix to a 1 dimensional array

Question

I have a matrix (32X48).

How can I convert the matrix into a single dimensional array?

Answer 1

You can use Joshua's solution but I think you need Elts_int <- as.matrix(tmp_int)

Or for loops:

z <- 1 ## Initialize
counter <- 1 ## Initialize
for(y in 1:48) { ## Assuming 48 columns otherwise, swap 48 and 32
for (x in 1:32) {  
z[counter] <- tmp_int[x,y]
counter <- 1 + counter
}
}

z is a 1d vector.
