Subject: tapply, sorting and the heap
howdy gurus,
I'm new and green and I was hoping for a tiny bit of your expertise.
I'm running out of virtual memory (heap?) when summing using tapply. I've
already used --vsize=90M on my hpux machine. (details below)
Can I pre-sort or something to prevent my error?
thanks,
John Strumila
