Details

This function is for stacking two-dimensional arrays into a single three-dimensional object to represent a multivariate system structure. Both square and rectangular arrays are supported provided that the dimensions in the input are equal. The dimnames in the output correspond to the first array in the input, and a Warning message is given when these are NULL.

Examples

## Create the data: two sets with a pair of binary relations 
## among three elements
arr1 <- round( replace( array( runif(18), c(3 ,3, 2) ), array( runif(18),
        c(3, 3, 2) ) > .5, 3 ) )

arr2 <- round( replace( array( runif(18), c(3 ,3, 2) ), array( runif(18),
        c(3, 3, 2) ) > .5, 3 ) )

## bind the data sets
zbind(arr1, arr2)
