No it's actually telling it to split by the two variables (variable, value)
if I understand your question correctly.
The confusion is my fault. I tend to be lazy when running examples and did
not rename the melt() output to something meaningful. I sometimes forget
that it's not just me reading the code.
If you run:
md1 <- melt(mydata, id = "Time_zero",
variable.name="xvars",
value.name="aminos")
ddply(md1, .(xvars, aminos), summarise, sum = sum(Time_zero)/time0total)
I think it will show what is happening.

Subject: Re: [R] How to do the same thing for all levels of a column?
Hi John and Bert,
Thank you so much for your replies. Both of your scripts worked well, so now
I've learnt two ways to do it. :)
Bert: I was not very clear on what I wanted to do. I just would like to
calculate the residues shown in the table, not all residues. The apply
functions are amazing!
John: as I am still digesting the codes, I am not sure if I fully understood
the argument .(variables, value) in the ddply line. The description of ddply
says that .variables show the variables to split data frame by, as quoted
variables, a formula or character vector. So does .(variables, value) tell R
to split the data frame by values, which are the types of amino acid
residues?
Thank you all again.
Cheers,
Zhao

Sigh.... More coffee needed.
