nrow andncol return the number of rows or columnspresent inx.NCOL andNROW do the same treating a vector as1-column matrix, even a 0-length vector, compatibly withas.matrix() orcbind(), see the example.
nrow(x)ncol(x)NCOL(x)NROW(x)
x | a vector, array, data frame, or |
aninteger of length 1 orNULL, thelatter only forncol andnrow.
