Why no tdo this in one fell swoop?


*************
clear*

/*fake matrices */ 
matrix input b = /* 
 */ (1,8,7,6,8,1,32,4,3,2)
matrix input Xi1 = /* 
 */ (3\3\3\3\3\3\3\3\3\3)
matrix input Xi2 = /* 
 */ (9\3\1\3\3\2\3\3\3\4)
matrix input Xi3 = /* 
 */ (9\3\4\3\10\2\3\3\3\0)
 
/*construct one big 
 matrix */ 
forv i=1/3{
	mat Xi=(nullmat(Xi),Xi`i')
} 
 
/*multiply in one fell swoop */ 
mat c=b*Xi
matrix d=c'
svmat d
 
list, noo

Betreff: st: Big set of 1x1 matrices into scalar - how to do fast? 

Dear Statalist users,

        forvalues i = 1(1)3641 {
        mat c`i'= b*Xi`i''
        capture drop c
        quietly gen c= el(c`i',1,1)
        quietly sum c
        quietly replace result=r(mean) in `i'
        drop c
        }

For a large set of individuals (here 3641), I have to multiply two vectors,
with b and Xi`I' being a 1x10 vector. As a result I receive for each
individual a 1x1 matrix, just containing 1 value.
I now would like to produce one single scalar variable, that for each `I'
row contains the number of c`I'.

I have found a way how to do that, given above. But my simple solution is
incredibly slow.

Could you help?
Many thanks
Sylke V. Schnepf

Ps. Many thanks for the help on the program for programming a weighted
regression, very helpful.
