I am trying to create a matrix of dimensions 25 by 10^7 using command
matrix(data=0,25,10^7) but cannot do so (I then wish to fill it with data generated
by for loops). In fact the max that I am able to create is one with 10^8 entries
(eg. matrix(data=0,10^8,1) or matrix(data=0,10^6,10^2). Anything bigger than
this is met with, in 10^9 case;

Error in matrix(data = 0, 1, 10^9) : cannot allocate vector of length
1000000000

or, in 10^17 case;

Error in matrix(data = 0, 1, 10^17) : matrix: invalid 'ncol' value (< 0)
In addition: Warning message:
NAs introduced by coercion

Is this a limitation of R or of RKWard, and is there anyway around this?
