Not much to go on, but you might find vegMeans = aggregate(SoilVegHydro[3:37],SoilVegHydro['Physiogomy'],mean) and vegSd = aggregate(SoilVegHydro[3:37],SoilVegHydro['Physiogomy'],sd)
more suitable for your needs. (Not run because I don't know what SoilVegHydro is.) - Phil Spector Statistical Computing Facility Department of Statistics UC Berkeley spec...@stat.berkeley.edu On Tue, 8 Jun 2010, steve_fried...@nps.gov wrote:
Hello, vegMeans <- by(SoilVegHydro[3:37] , SoilVegHydro$Physiogomy, mean) vegSD <- by(SoilVegHydro[3:37] , SoilVegHydro$Physiogomy, sd) write.table(vegMeans, file="A:\\Work_Area\\Steve\\Hydrology_Data\\data\\vegMeans.txt") Error in as.data.frame.default(x[[i]], optional = TRUE, stringsAsFactors = stringsAsFactors) : cannot coerce class '"by"' into a data.frame Is there anyway to convert these output objects for use with write.table or an alternate method such that I can output to a word processing system?
