Multiply matrices in list

Question

I would like to multiply multiple matrices of a list. I know that this works with a single matrix:

 x1  <- c(2,2,2,3,1,2,4,6,1,2,4)
 y1  <- c(5,4,3,3,         


        

Answer 1

Map is your friend for these sorts of operations. First, let's make some example lists using your data:

l1 <- replicate(3,mat1,simplify=FALSE)
l2 <- replicate(3,mat2,simplify=FALSE)

Now, it's as simple as:

Map("*",l1,l2)
