I have a simple 1 way anova coded like

How can I use the BY function to do this ANOVA for each group using another
variable in the dataset??  I tried coding it like this, but it doesn't seem
to work.

summary(ANOVA1way <- by(welldata, Analyte, function(x) aov(Value ~ WellID,
data = welldata)))

In SAS I would code it like this:
Proc sort data=welldata; by analyte; run;
Proc glm data=welldata;
by analyte;
class wellid;
model value = wellid;
run;


Any suggestions???


Given you have asked two questions on translating SAS idioms to R, you might be a candidate for Bob Muenchen's book which some people have previously recommended:

[3] Robert A. Muenchen. R for SAS and SPSS Users. Springer Series in Statistics and Computing. Springer, 2009. ISBN: 978-0-387-09417-5. [ bib | Discount Info | Publisher Info ] This book demonstrates which of the add-on packages are most like SAS and SPSS and compares them to R's built-in functions. It steps through over 30 programs written in all three packages, comparing and contrasting the packages' differing approaches. The programs and practice datasets are available for download.
