To create duplicate matrices, we can use replicate function that will repeat the original matrix and if we want to merge those matrices together then we can use rbind with do.call. For example, if we have a matrix called M then creation of it’s one duplicate and merging them together can be done using the command −do.call(rbind,replicate(2,M,simplify=FALSE))ExampleM

To find the percentage for frequencies stored in a vector with two decimal places can be done with the help of sum function and round function. For example, if we have a vector of frequencies say x then the percentage of these frequencies can be found by using the command round((x/sum(x))*100,2). Check out the below examples to understand how it works.Example1Frequency1

To find the mean squared error for linear model, we can use predicted values of the model and find the error from dependent variable then take its square and the mean of the whole output. For example, if we have a linear model called M for a data frame df then we can find the mean squared error using the command mean((df$y-predict(M))^2).Example1Consider the below data frame −x1
