Weighting column entries in a data frame
...9600 544.00
ALASKA 2 3 10.101300 539.00
I would like to adjust "income" by population ("popul") for each state. I
can use:
statepop<-tapply(fdata$popul,fdata$state,sum),
which gives:
ALABAMA ALASKA
53590.130 7435.263
I can find the weights:
popweight <- statepops/sum(statepops)
ALABAMA ALASKA
0.016327564 0.002265338
Is there an efficient way to multiply each entry of "income" by "popweght"
conditional on the state? That is, ALABAMA income for year 1 is
9.703193*0.016327564, etc.
Thanks,
William
