Subject: frequency table with custom bands
In-Reply-To: <CAAxdm-62=rKk2FYjnB3XgDxoLLvejh2+Xm5z=-DRNmgjFgSgdg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Jim,

I am gettng the error message that the breaks are not unique: (R 2.15)
table(cut(Prices,breaks=Bands))
Error in cut.default(Prices, breaks = Bands) : 'breaks' are not unique


So, I tried using:
res<-rbind(as.data.frame(table(cut(Prices,breaks=seq1))),as.data.frame(table(cut(Prices,breaks=seq2))))
res2<-apply(res,2,function(x) gsub("\\(|\\]","",gsub("[,]","-",x)))
res3<-within(as.data.frame(res2),{Freq<-as.numeric(Freq)})
head(res3)
#?? Var1 Freq
#1?? 0-5??? 1
#2? 5-10??? 6
#3 10-15??? 2
#4 15-20??? 2
#5 20-25??? 6
#6 25-30??? 2


A.K.

?cut

try this:
