Newbie question about by() -- update
...lack of detail. I am running R v.1.2.2. I can recast my question (which I think I have partially answered) more succinctly as follows: 1. This seems to work (note that group takes values 1,2,3,4, or 5): my.newfun <- function(x) myfile <- lm(award ~ ilogemp + ilogage, x) test.by <- by(wintemp, as.factor(wintemp$group), my.newfun) 2. This does not work (leaving aside whether I am using ppr correctly or not!): > my.pprfun <- function(x) mypprfile <- ppr(award ~ ilogemp + ilogage, data = x, nterms = 5, + max.terms = 10, optlevel = 3) > test.by <- by(wintemp...

Newbie question about by()
Dear R list: I want to make separate estimates for each level of the variable "group." After consulting many sources I am stumped as to why the following does not work: > wintemp <- subset(alltemp, winner==1) > my.ppr <- function(x) + { + if(nrow(x) >= 50) { + pprfile <- ppr(award~ilogemp, data=x,nterms=5,max.terms=10,optlevel=3) + summary(pprfile) + } + } > test.by <- by(wintemp,as.factor(wintemp$group),my.ppr) Error in model.frame....
