R help - Jun 2013 - Margins in dcast (reshape2)

Hi,


I'd like to get mean values for the margins of my casted data.frame.
For the casting I am using dcast() from reshape2. However, when I set
the margins parameter (margins=c("grand\_row")) I get following error
concerning
an unrecognized escape character '\_'. So what is the correct command
to get the outermost margins only in reshape2?

Hi Johannes,

I think the documentation is wrong. The Readme at
https://github.com/hadley/reshape says grand_row and grand_col have
been dropped. You should submit a bug report at
https://github.com/hadley/reshape/issues describing the documentation
problem.

Best,
Ista
