Someone in r-help recommended me to post the question in this group . TIA
Hello Group,
I need a modification in the data.table example to get my intended
result shown below ... is there a more simple way!
dt <- data.table(A = rep(1:3, each=4), B = rep(1:4, each=3), C = rep(1:2,
6))
dt[, transform(.SD,D=mean(A)), by="B"]
The result I want is below ... which is probably long winded!
data.table(unique(as.data.frame(dt[, transform(.SD,D=mean(A)),
by="B"][,list(B,D)])))
B D
[1,] 1 1.000000
[2,] 2 1.666667
[3,] 3 2.333333
[4,] 4 3.000000
Thank you.
