[R] Objective: to create a Joint Probability Table and save as a csv file (with headers).Input: A csv file (with headers) containing raw data, arranged by columns.Variable: number of bins for each column of data, default to 5 bins per column.Data import and export in R I can do, however I am a complete n00b at this type of statistical processing and I would really appreciate some guidance please.I want to take the input data and create, as final output, a Joint Probability Table. I can do this manually in Excel, however I am hoping that there is a better and more repeatable way to do so in R.An example of the steps taken is available in an Excel spreadsheet at http://parametricplanet.com/rvince/ScenariosExample.xls Is what I am attempting to do covered by some available function(s) or package(s) in R? After spending a while searching the manual and the various on-line help pages for Joint Probability Table I am beginning to suspect that it may not be, but my lack of experience in both stats and R could well mean that I am missing the clues.Creating a Joint Probability Table from Supplied Data in R
Dear R-Help, First post, be gentle... I am new to R: I can perform basic functions using R code - import and export data, load packages and not much else at this stage.
