ch3 2 Subsetting Matrices

The document introduces subsetting matrices in R. It shows how to subset elements, columns, rows, and multiple elements of a matrix using indices. Indexing can be numeric ("m[1,3]") or character ("m["r2","c"]"). Logical vectors can be used to subset elements where the condition is TRUE. Subsetting allows extracting parts of a matrix for further analysis or manipulation.
