R-helpers A curious question: Can you make suggestions as to what to use in R for the data from a sample of the following: Hypermarket <- matrix(rnorm(100, mean=50000, sd=5000)) Supermarket <- matrix(rnorm(400, mean=34000, sd=3000)) Minimarket <- matrix(rnorm(1000, mean=10000,sd=2000)) Cornershop <- matrix(rnorm(1500, mean=2500, sd=500)) Spazashop <- matrix(rnorm(2000, mean=1000, sd=250)) dat=data.frame(type=c(rep("Hypermarket",100), rep("Supermarket",400), rep("Minimarket",1000),rep("Cornershop",1500), rep("Spazashop",2000)), value=c(Hypermarket, Supermarket, Minimarket, Cornershop,Spazashop)) #Sampling with without replacement n<-1000 dat.srs<-dat[sample(1:dim(dat)[1], size=n,replace=F),] dat.srs #Number of observations for each outlet type in a sample dat.srs$type <- factor(dat.srs$type, levels = c("Hypermarket","Supermarket","Minimarket","Cornershop","Spazashop")) (numoutlets<-data.frame(table(dat.srs$type))) suggest a package that can help me get all the analysis info such as meean,var,std,dev,cv,ci,proportions,...........
