Hi,
Try either:
tolerance <-
read.csv("http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/r/examples/alda/data/tolerance1.txt")
?aggregate(exposure~male,data=tolerance,mean)
?# male exposure
#1??? 0 1.246667
#2??? 1 1.120000
#or
?library(plyr)
?ddply(tolerance,.(male),summarize,exposure=mean(exposure))
#? male exposure
#1??? 0 1.246667
#2??? 1 1.120000
#or
with(tolerance,tapply(exposure,list(male),FUN=mean))
#?????? 0??????? 1
#1.246667 1.120000
#or
?with(tolerance,by(exposure,list(male),mean))
#: 0
#[1] 1.246667
#------------------------------------------------------------
#: 1
#[1] 1.12
#or
?library(data.table)
?tolerance1<- data.table(tolerance)
?tolerance1[,list(exposure=mean(exposure)),by=male]
#?? male exposure
#1:??? 0 1.246667
#2:??? 1 1.120000
#or
sapply(split(tolerance,tolerance$male),function(x) mean(x$exposure))
#?????? 0??????? 1
#1.246667 1.120000?
#or
library(psych)
?describeBy(tolerance$exposure,tolerance$male,mat=TRUE)[c(2,5)]
#?? group1???? mean
#11????? 0 1.246667
#12????? 1 1.120000
#or
library(doBy)
summaryBy(exposure~male,data=tolerance,FUN=mean)
?# male exposure.mean
#1??? 0????? 1.246667
#2??? 1????? 1.120000

>RIght now, I'm able to calculate the mean of the variable

the mean of >exposure, separately for male == 0 and male == 1. The only

>tolerance_female = tolerance [male ==1, c (1:8)]
>exposure_female = tolerance_female$exposure

>While this method work well for a simple calculation, it'll be
