Hello R For expierienced user, the following problem will be easy to solve: a<-c(0,1,0,1,0,2,3,4,3,2) b<-c(3,3,3,4,4,4,7,7,7,10) c<-data.frame(a,b) Data Frame c contains tow colums. I would like to sum up all values in a as long as b stays the same: sum(a[which(b==1)]) does this, but i have to manually put in b then i tryied st like this, but i canno't save it properly for (i in 0:max(b)){ i<-sum(a[which(b==i)]) } i tried to figure out, how tapply works, but neither thanks alot marc -- ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
