Thanks.That is what I want. It is more that I do not know how to read factors 
that these two functions return

I need to be able to keep the items within their groups and at the same time to 
keep the label of the group so to be able to use it for plotting purposes.
How I can do that?RegardsAlex

I have been vaguely following this thread and have become very confused 
given the complications that seem to have appeared.

The original question was:

Actually you appear to have a 32 x 1 *matrix* (NOT the same thing!) that 
looks like:

A later addendum to the question indicated that the OP wanted labels for 
the result consisting of the endpoints of the intervals into which the 
data were subdivided.  Unless I am misunderstanding, this is trivial to 
accomplish using cut() and split():

x <- c(238.95162, 143.0859, 88.50923, 177.67884, 277.54116, 342.94689,
241.60905, 177.81969, 211.25559, 279.72702, 381.95738, 483.76363,
480.98841, 369.75241, 267.7365, 138.55959, 137.93181, 184.752,
254.64359, 328.87785, 273.15577, 252.5283, 252.5283, 252.5283,
262.20084, 314.93064, 366.02996, 442.77467, 521.20323, 465.33071,
366.60582, 13.6954)

f <- cut(x,5)

y <- split(x,f)

y

Is this not the result that you want?  If not, what *is* the result that 
you want?

cheers,
