Print a multiplication table with minimal code

Question

In R, what is the fastest way(shortest code) to print multiplication table? The functions seq rep and the bind functions help, but I\'m looking for the shortest line(s) of c

Answer 1

A shortcut for outer(1:6, 1:12, "*"):

> 1:6 %o% 1:12
     [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [,7] [,8] [,9] [,10] [,11] [,12]
[1,]    1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9    10    11    12

[4,]    4    8   12   16   20   24   28   32   36    40    44    48
[5,]    5   10   15   20   25   30   35   40   45    50    55    60
