Hello, Long Vo,

take a look at the help page of split or directly at

str(Y)

They tell you that Y is a list, and list components are indexed using "[[":

mean(Y[[4]])

should do what you want.

  Regards  --  Gerrit


This does what I needed. However, as the output is a list object, is there
any way to apply a function to such object? For example if I want to compute
the mean for the 4th subvectors, I can't simply use:
#####
Y=split(X,as.numeric(gl(length(X),3,length(X))))
mean(Y[4])
#####
as the error message shows "argument is not numeric or logical"
