Hi everybody I am a recent convert from SAS so please excuse me if this is all very obvious: I want to use the runs test {runs.test() in package tseries} to test the randomness of a certain variable in a survey for each interviewer. I tried to us the by() statement but it doesn't seem to work with runs.test() as the function. Here is what I have: Consider a data frame with two variables and 40 observations.

...find a job. Here is one problem I seem to have, I wonder if others have this problem. Although I apply for Java and C++ jobs, since I am hopeing to find Rails work, I may not come across as overly enthusiastic, though I try my best to give a good impression.

The other things, is I get asked technical questions on C++...
