hi david---no, this time I actually know what I was asking ( ;-) ). I do
need speed computed on many data sets, each of which is created by a "by"
statement. so, no iterative programming on my side.
thanks, hadley for the pointer to .row_names_info() in lieu of dim() or
nrows(). I don't seem to understand the second (type) argument, despite
reading the docs, but all of them are giving the same answer in my data
frames. so, I guess I will stick to "2" for the time being.
regards,
/iaw
