Hi R, This is a very trivial one.... C=0.1 I want to check whether my value of C is between 0 and 1 exclusively.... I don't want to use (C>0 & C<1). And I can't use a single statement like (0<C<1). Is there a between function? Or how do we specify from 0 to 1? Does %in% help me? Many Thanks, Shubha This e-mail may contain confidential and/or

Hi R, Let, x=1:80 I want to sum up first 8 elements of x, then again next 8 elements of x, then again another 8 elements..... So, my new vector should look like: c(36,100,164,228,292,356,420,484,548,612) I used: aggregate(x,list(rep(1:10,each=8)),sum)[-1] or rowsum(x,group=rep(1:10,each=8)) But without grouping, can I achieve the required?
