median of binned values
Dear list, I have a vector (array, table row, whatever is best) of frequency values for categories (or bins), and I need to find the median category. Trivial to do by hand, but I was wondering if there is a means to do it in R in an elegant way. The obvious medioan(vector) returns the median frequency for the binns, and that is not what I want. i.e,: freq cat1 1 cat2 10 cat3 100 cat4 1000 cat5 10000 I want it to return cat5, instead of cat3. Thanks a lot Martin
