a=[["doc1",["hi","bye","guy"],[],[],[]],["doc2",["bye","now","is","hi","hi","hi"],[],[],[]],["doc3",["bye","now","is","hi","hi","hi","why","go","guy"],[],[],[]]]

i have this array i'd like to multiply the 2nd inner array with the 3rd
inner array and fill the 4th inner array with these results but i don't
know how to do it. by the way the 2nd and the third inner array are of
type float.
anybody ca help please?
and thanks in advance:)

a.each{
   >x>
    x.each{
     >y>
        y.each{ #i have the error in here

        }

  }
}

and the error is
tester.rb:50: undefined method `each' for 1:Fixnum (NoMethodError)
  from tester.rb:48:in `each'
  from tester.rb:48
  from tester.rb:46:in `each'
  from tester.rb:46

The error indicates that you are calling "each" method on a Fixnum object.
You can just do a simple verification inside the each loop like this:

array.each do |x|
  do something unless x.class == "Array"
  do something else with inner arrays
end

hi Juman,

  if we write out your array `a` like this:

a = [

  ["doc1",
    ["hi","bye","guy"],
    ,
    ,
    
  ],

  ["doc2",
    ["bye","now","is","hi","hi","hi"],
    ,
    ,
    
  ],

  ["doc3",
    ["bye","now","is","hi","hi","hi","why","go","guy"],
    ,
    ,
    
  ]

]

  ...what sections are you referring to as the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th inner
arrays?

PS: And there's also http://rdoc.info/stdlib/matrix/1.9.2/frames in
the standard library. For fast math there's also narray gem.
