Re: [R] Newbie programming help
Dear Steven,
Take a look at the lmList function in the nlme package. It does what you
want to do.

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.

Not sure if this is a real programming question, but here goes:
I have data that looks like
LakeLength Weight
1 158 45
1 179 70
1 200 125
1 202 150
1 206 145
1 209 165
1 210 140
1 215 175
1 216 152
1 220 150
1 221 165
...
where lake goes from 1 - 84 and the number of rows for each lake is
variable (but ~20).
I'm trying to do two things: 1) build a simple linear model of the form
{lm(log10(Weight)~log10(Length)}
for every separate lake in the data set; 2) I'd like to save the
intercepts and slopes
from each of these linear regressions into a seperate data frame. Any
ideas? I think it would
probably require some kind of 'for' statement, but I'm just not that
smart.
Thanks for your help,
SR

Assuming the data are in a data frame called mydf:
library(nlme)
fm1 - lmList(log10(Weight)~log10(Length) | Lake, mydf)
coef(fm1)
?lmList
or
t(sapply(split(mydf, mydf$Lake),
function(x){coef(lm(log10(Weight)~log10(Length), data=x))}))
