Hi All,

is there any chance of vectorising the two ifelse() statements in the
following code:

for(i in gp){
 new[i,1] = ifelse(srow[i]>0, new[srow[i],zippo[i]], sample(1:100, 1,
prob =Y1, rep = T))
 new[i,2] = ifelse(drow[i]>0, new[drow[i]>0,zappo[i]], sample(1:100,
1, prob =Y1, rep = T))
}

Where I am forced to check if the value of drow and srow are >0 for each
line... in practical terms, I am attributing haplotypes to a pedigree,
so I have to give the haplotypes to the parents before I give them to
the offspring. The vectors *zippo* and *zappo* are the chances of
getting one or the other hap from the sire and dam respectively. *gp* is
the vectors of non-ancestral animals. *new* is a two col matrix where
the haps are stored.

Cheers,

Federico
