When you create a matrix in the usual way like this, > a <- matrix(rnorm(10),2,5) > a        [,1]      [,2]       [,3]       [,4]       [,5] [1,]  1.3488918 0.6225795 -0.7444514  1.3130491  1.7877849 [2,] -0.2385392 0.5656759  0.9037435 -0.2217444 -0.2656875 the dimension dropped after picking up a single row or column in this way, > b <- a[,1] > b…
