Calculated mean value based on another column bin from dataframe.
Dear list,
I have a dataframe with two column as fellow.
> head(dat)
       V1      V2
 0.15624 0.94567
 0.26039 0.66442
 0.16629 0.97822
 0.23474 0.72079
 0.11037 0.83760
 0.14969 0.91312
I want to get the column V2 mean value based on the bin of column of
V1. I write the code as fellow. It works, but I think this is not the
elegant way. Any suggestions?

Boxplot with full x-range
Hi all,
I'm new to R, and have the following problem:
I wish to draw a boxplot of simple data in two columns.   The x-axis 
(taken from first column) is grouped to intervals (using 'cut').
These intervals serve as x-value to the boxplot, and the data from the 
second column are the y-values.
The problem is that I want to give an impression of the trend of the data 
in the x-range.

Why does matrix selection behave differently when using which?
Dear R community,
I have a medium sized matrix stored in variable "t" and a simple function "
countRows" (see below) to count the number of rows in which a selected
column "C" matches a given value. If I count all rows matching all pairwise
distinct values in the column "C" and sum these counts up, I get the number
or rows of "t". If I delete the

Error in which()
Hi all,
I'm trying to filter data into respective numbers. For example, if the 
data ranges from 0 to <0.1, group the data. And so on for the rest of 
the data.
There are inconsistencies in the output. For example, b1[[3]] lumps all 
the 0.2s and 0.3s together while 0.6s are not in the output.
Running the function - table(f1) - shows that each of the 
components/numbers has x number of

ifelse()
I have a problem with ifelse(), I do not understand how it works. 
> X<-c(2,2,1,1,0,0)
> str(X)
 num [1:6] 2 2 1 1 0 0
> Y<-ifelse(X>0,1,0)
> Y
[1] 1 1 1 1 0 0

Can some one explain what is going on, I do not understand what ifelse is
doing in this case. Can someone explain the output Y.
Thanks

breaking a loop in R
Hi All,
I was wondering if there is anything that breaks a loop in R. For example, 
For (k in 1:100)
For ( i in 1:10){
If ( condition ){
Break the inner loop 
} 
}
}
In the above case, if the program runs the if statement, then I want the
inner loop for (i in 1:10) to stop looping and skip the rest of the program.
Thanks for your help
