Subject: [R] Need help on dataframe
Dear R users, I came up to a problem by taking means (or other summary
statistics) of a big dataframe.
Suppose we do have a dataframe:
ID V1 V2 V3 V4 ........................ V71
1 6 5 3 2 ........................ 3
2 3 2 2 1 ........................ 1
3 6 5 3 2 ........................ 3
4 12 15 3 2 ........................ 100
........................................................
........................................................
288 10 20 30 30 .......................... 499
I need to find out the way, how to calculate a mean of every 12 lines to
get:
V1 V2 V3 V4
........................... V71
mean from 1 to 7 same as V1 same as V1
mean from 8 to 14 same as V1 same as V1
etc.
I can do it column by column using:
y.ts <- ts(y$V1, frequency=12)
aggregate(y.ts, FUN=mean)
Bu this is a hardcore... Can anyone suggest a better way to compute all
the
dataframe at once and get a result as matrix?
Thank you in advance!
