Dear All,
I have a vector x (as a factor, see below) for which I'd like to know
frequencies for each
level of the factor itself. I generally use "tapply function" for that
but it gave to me
an unespected result as you can see and according my knowledge of R language and
if my memory did not fail.
x <-
c(16056,16056,16056,16056,16056,16056,16056,16057,16057,16057,16058,16060

# By looking tapply function help why the table's output is different from

# Anyone could help to me, please?
