ROracle and vector elements
Hi there! Is ROracle available for Windows, please? I found a download site, but it's really for UNIX/Linux.

subsets in data frame
Hello R People: I have a data frame with 2 numeric variables and 1 factor. There are 3 levels of the factor. I would like to get sums/means/etc of the numeric variables with respect to the factor level. I tried "table" and "subset" but have not hit upon a solution. I thought maybe "apply" would be the answer but can't figure out how to break out by factor.

more on apply on data frame
Hi R People: Several of you pointed out that using "tapply" on a data frame will work on the iris data frame. I'm still having a problem. The iris data frame has 150 rows, 5 variables. The first 4 are numeric, while the last is a factor, which has the Species names. I can use tapply for 1 variable at a time: >tapply(iris[,1],iris[,5],mean) setosa versicolor virginica

[gently off topic] arima seasonal question
Hello R People: When using the arima function with the seasonal option, are the seasonal options only good for monthly and quarterly data, please?
