Error: object not found - Second loop

I have a tsv file with 61 columns and 18703 lines. I have written the following code:

f<-read.table(file = "GeneExpressionDataset_normalized.tsv", sep="\t", header=TRUE)
m<-as.data.frame(f)
m

for (i in 1:nrow(m)){
  wt[i]<-c(sum(m[c(i:i),c(2:11)]))/10
}
wt

for (i in 1:nrow(m)){
  TherA[i]<-c(sum(m[c(i:i),c(22:31)]))/10
}
TherA

For some reason the first loop works but the second one produces Error Subject not found. The loops are identical in syntax. What could be wrong?

loop r

what you want might be instead

f <- read.table(file = "GeneExpressionDataset_normalized.tsv", sep="\t", header=TRUE)
wt <- apply(f[,2:11], 1, mean)
TherA <- apply(f[,22:31], 1, mean)

(I am guessing that you are looking for the mean of each group for each row)

Yes, this was my intention. Your way seems more suitable. Thank you!
