gridVector <-  
    function(x, y = NULL)
{   
    # A function implemented by Diethelm Wuertz

    # Description:
    #   Creates from two vectors rectangular grid coordinates
    
    # Arguments:
    #   x, y - two numeric vectors of length m and n which span the 
    #   rectangular grid of size m times n.
    
    # Details: 
    #   The two vectors x and y span a rectangular grid with nx=length(x) 
    #   times ny=length(y) points which are returned as a matrix of size
    #   (nx*ny) times 2.
    
    # Value:
    #   returns a list with two elements X and Y each of length m 
    #   times n
    
    # Example:
    #   > gridVector(1:3, 1:2)
    #             [,1] [,2]
    #       [1,]    1    1
    #       [2,]    2    1
    #       [3,]    3    1
    #       [4,]    1    2
    #       [5,]    2    2
    #       [6,]    3    2

    # FUNCTION: 
    
    # DW:
    if (is.null(y)) y = x
    
    # Prepare for Input:
    nx = length(x)
    ny = length(y)
    xoy = cbind(rep(x, ny), as.vector(matrix(y, nx, ny, byrow = TRUE)))
    X = matrix(xoy, nx * ny, 2, byrow = FALSE)
    
    # Return Value:
    list(X = X[,1], Y = X[,2])
}
