Hi all,
Please consider the following:
DataSet1.. <-
data
.frame(Bldgtype=c("SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","APT"),
Taz=c("254","254","254","564","564","564","564"),stringsAsFactors =
FALSE)
PeriodResType_Zx <- tapply(as.character(DataSet1..$Bldgtype),
as.character(DataSet1..$Taz), table)
PeriodResType_Zx
$`254`
SFDM
3
$`564`
APT SFDM
1 3
DataSet2.. <-
data.frame(Bldgtype=c("SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM"),
Taz=c("254","245","564","564","564","564"))
PeriodResType_Zx <- tapply(DataSet2..$Bldgtype, DataSet2..$Taz, table)
PeriodResType_Zx
Data set 1 returns the desired outcome, an array with elements
consisting of
a labeled table
Data set 2 returns an array without the table labeled.
This is occuring becuase there are not a variety of Bldgtypes in
data set
two, but this is a reality of the data so how can i get the data
into the
same format, with a Bldgtype descriptor in the array like the Data
set 1
result?
You do not actually say what sort of output you want (other than by
analogybut try using this as the first column in your data.frame call:
Bldgtype
=factor(c("SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM","SFDM") ,levels=c("SFDM",
"APT"))
