Hi to you all! I'm new to R and to this mailing list, so do please excuse me if my question sounds stupid.
Currently I'm working with a data frame called "results". In each column of "results" I have a set of results for different experiments (all results are numerical) realized in different dates, so that each row corresponds to a day. To make it clear when displaying the results, I gave names to the columns with the names of the experiments realized. I also gave names to the rows based on the day the experiments where realized. My problem now is that I'm trying to separate this experiments based on a criteria that is not important for the moment. What I want to be able to do is, given an experiment name, obtain the time series of the results of that experiment. I know I can do this by typing results$nameoftheexperiment But what if I have a variable "name" which contains the experiment's name? Doing the following results$name doesn't work, as expected, since there is no column with name name. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much!
