Dear all,
I would like to know how could I execute a sequence or orders with just a
function, i.e, that just typing the function name, R gives me all the
parameters I want (for instance, if I want to see the summary, the standard
deviation, the number of valid cases, etc of a dataframe just with one
function). I have tried with the following, but just compute the second
argument of the body, i.e., the summary:
resumen<-function(x) {
apply(x,2,sd,na.rm=TRUE)
summary(x)
}
Thank you very much for your help!!

Hi Manuel,
In addition to my fellow R-helpers:
R does not save the result of the apply function on x. Now you calculate
it and it is discarded. To save it, try something like:
resumen<-function(x) {
y = apply(x,2,sd,na.rm=TRUE)
summary(y)
}
Or print statements on both lines, as the others suggested.
cheers,
Paul
