I have a big contingency table, approximately of size 60*2*500*500, and I need to count the number of cells containing a count of 1 for each of the factors values defining the first dimension. Here is my attempt: tab1<-with(pisa1,table(CNT,GENDER,ISCOF,ISCOM)) tab2<-apply(tab1,1:4,function(x)ifelse(sum(x)==1,1,0)) tab3<-apply(tab2,1,sum) Computing tab2 is very slow. Is there a faster

Hi R, I wanted to know how do we access the elements of a list. In particular, v=list(c(1,2,3,4,5),c(1,2,33,4,5),c(1,2,333,4,5),c(1,2,3333,4,5)) I want to access all the thirds items of the elements of the list. i.e., I want to access the elements, 3,33,333,3333. This can be done through sapply as: sapply(v,function(x) x[3]) But I need to access this without using

Hello, I have a date in the format Year-Month Name (e.g. 1990-January) and R classes it as a character. I want to convert this character into a date format, but when I try as.Date(1990-January, "%Y-%B"), I get back NA. The function strptime also gives me NA back. Thanks.
