Can't you just sort the table: > set.seed(123) > a=as.factor(sample(letters[1:4],16,replace=TRUE)) > sort(table(a),dec=TRUE) a d b c a 6 4 4 2 Barry ______________________________________________ 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.
